Assumption College for Sisters

Assumption College for Sisters is a two-year Roman Catholic women's college. Founded in 1953 through an affiliation with Seton Hall University, Assumption is run by the Sisters of Christian Charity. Primarily designed to prepare women for work in religious vocations, Assumption specializes in theological studies and the liberal arts. It is the last remaining sisters' college, or college primarily designed to educate nuns, in the United States.[11] In 2014, the school relocated to a convent on the Morris Catholic High School campus.[12]

Awards, recognition and rankings

During the 1984–85 school year, Morris Catholic High School was awarded the National Blue Ribbon School Award of Excellence by the United States Department of Education.[13]

During the 2012–13 school year, students from Morris Catholic drama classes won first place at the New Jersey Thespian Festival.[14] It was the school's second win after taking the top prize for the main stage category the previous year.[15]

Athletics

The Morris Catholic High School Crusaders[4] compete in the Northwest Jersey Athletic Conference, which is comprised of 39 public and private high schools in Morris, Sussex and Warren counties, and was established by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) following a reorganization of sports leagues in Northern New Jersey.[16][17] Prior to the NJSIAA's 2010 realignment, the school had participated in the Colonial Hills Conference which included schools in Essex, Morris and Somerset counties in west Central Jersey.[18] With 328 students in grades 10–12, the school was classified by the NJSIAA for the 2019–20 school year as Non-Public B for most athletic competition purposes, which included schools with an enrollment of 37 to 366 students in that grade range (equivalent to Group I for public schools).[19] The interscholastic sports that Morris Catholic offers are men's and women's soccer, football, women's volleyball, men's and women's basketball, wrestling, ice hockey, winter and spring track and field, men's and women's lacrosse, baseball, softball, fencing, and golf.[4] The football team competes in the United Blue division of the North Jersey Super Football Conference, which includes 112 schools competing in 20 divisions, making it the nation's biggest football-only high school sports league.[20][21] The school was classified by the NJSIAA as Non-Public Group B (equivalent to Group I for public schools) for football for 2022–2024, which included schools with 64 to 223 students.[22]

The school participates as the host school / lead agency for joint cooperative cross country running and ice hockey teams with the Academy of Saint Elizabeth, while the Academy of St. Elizabeth is the host school for a joint field hockey team. DePaul Catholic High School is the host school for a joint skiing team. All of these co-op programs operate under agreements scheduled to expire at the end of the 2023–24 school year.[23][24]

The 1971 baseball team won the Parochial B state title with a 3–0 win against Gloucester Catholic High School in the playoff finals.[25][26]

The 1974 and 1975 boys cross country team won the New Jersey Meet of Champions and finished the season ranked #1 in the state becoming the first team to win back-to-back titles.[27][28] They were Parochial B champions in the five consecutive years from 1974 to 1978.[29][30]

The softball team won the Non-Public A state championship in 1982 (defeating Camden Catholic High School in the finals) and won the Non-Public B title in 1986 (vs. Gloucester Catholic High School), 2021 (vs. St. Joseph Academy) and 2022 (vs. Gill St. Bernard's School).[31] The 1982 team ended their season at 17–7 after winning the Parochial A state title with a 2–1 walk-off win against Camden Catholic in the championship game.[32]

The girls soccer team was Group I state champion in 1988 (defeating Metuchen High School in the final game of the playoffs), 1989 (vs. Pitman High School), 1990 (vs. Metuchen), 1991 (vs. Bordentown Regional High School), 1992 (vs. Pingry School), 1993 (vs. Pitman), 1994 (vs. Montgomery High School), 1995 (vs Pitman) and 1997 (as co-champion with Haddonfield Memorial High School), and won the Non-Public B state title in 1999 (vs. St. Rose High School), 2001 (vs. Gloucester Catholic High School), 2003 (vs. Eustace Preparatory School), 2012 (vs. St. Rose High School), 2013 (vs. St. Rose) and 2016 (vs. Holy Spirit High School). The 15 state titles won by the program are the most of any school in New Jersey.[33] The team won its first title in 1988 with a 6–1 win against Metuchen in the finals at Trenton State College.[34] The 1990 team finished the season 20–1–1 and won its third consecutive Group III title with a 3–0 win against Metuchen in the finals.[35] The 1990 team won a record fourth straight title and ended the season 24–1 after a 4–0 win against Bordentown in the championship game.[36] A 1–0 win in 1993 against Pitman in the Group I final extended the program's streak to six consecutive state championships.[37] The 2000 girls' soccer team won the Parochial North B state sectional championship, defeating Kent Place School in the tournament final.[38] In 2012, the girls' soccer team won the NJSIAA Non-Public B state championship with a 1–0 win against St. Rose High School to give the program their 13th state championship, the most of any team in the state.[39] In 2013, the team captured its second consecutive NJSIAA/Sports Authority Non-Public B state championship with a 3–1 victory over St. Rose.[40]

The girls spring / outdoor track team won the Non-Public B state championships in 1992-1994, 1999, 2017-2020 and 2022; the program's eight group titles are tied for fourth-most in the state.[41] In 2010, the spring track and field team won the Non-Public B North state sectional title.[42] The girls track team won the winter / indoor track Group I state championship in 1994 and 1995, and won the Non-Public B title in 2019, 2020 and 2022. The program's five state group titles are tied for seventh-most in the state.[43]

The boys' soccer team won the 2005 NJSIAA North Group B state championship with a 1–0 win against St. Rose High School.[44]

In 2007, the girls' basketball team won the NJSIAA North Group A state championship with a 53–32 win against Immaculata High School.[45] In 2014, the team "captured their 3rd NJSIAA state sectional championship in a row, their 10th since 2002" in a 58–48 win over Lodi Immaculate.[46][47]
