In and out of their activities, everything done with the Loftus’ is done with a smile. “I love getting to play soccer with the Loftus’ because they are very positive people and are a huge part of our team,” soccer teammate Anna White said. With both Loftus’ playing many sports, lots of different exciting memories come with that. “My favorite memory is Alex Nicastro choking on goldfish, and watching her miss 6 wide open goals in our jamboree,” Mary said. “My favorite memory was in our first district game of junior year. Alex Nicastro got chased by a bee and choked on a hot dog on the same day. My mom, Karen Loftus, saved her life”, Abby said. 

Outside of school, Abby and Mary enjoy playing soccer and hanging out with friends, Mary also enjoys going to the pool in the summertime.
