Prep Roundup: May 7

Seaside was within one run of Christopher heading into the top of the fourth, trailing 5-4, but then the Cougars pounced into action.
The Cougars drove in five runs over the fourth and fifth innings, racking up 15 hits en route to a 10-3 win on the road Tuesday. 
Karli Martinez led off the top of the fourth with a walk and was moved over to second on a Pati Soria single to right field. The duo advanced on the throw and Martinez was able to score as Brook Loesch grounded out. A Morgan England single to left field sent Soria home. England scored three batters later on the throw to give Christopher an 8-3 lead.
Christopher widen its lead in the top of the fifth by taking advantage of a bases loaded situation. Juliana Santiago scored before Loesch was walked to keep the bags full. Two batters later Mackenzie Holt stole home for the final run of the game. 
Holt went 4 for 5 at the plate, diving in a run and scoring three. She was also solid in the circle, going the distance while allowing six hits, three walks and a strikeout. 
Christopher (16-7 overall, 5-4 in league) will look to sweep the season meetings with Gilroy during their game at 4:30 p.m. Thursday at home.
BASEBALL
Gilroy edges MVC
Gilroy held the lead for most of Tuesday’s game against Monte Vista Christian—until the sixth inning that is. The visitors scored five runs in the top of the sixth inning to tie the game, 5-5, and another in the top of the seventh to take the lead.
But the Mustangs weren’t done.
Gilroy pushed the equalizer and game winner across the plate in the bottom half of the inning to edge MVC 7-6 at home. 
Stats from this game were not yet available.
The win was crucial in the tight race in the Monterey Bay League Gabilan Division. Gilroy (7-12 overall, 5-10 in league) will look to add another ‘W’ to its league record when it plays at MVC at 4 p.m. Thursday in a make-up game from March 26. The Mustangs will take on Christopher at 4 p.m. Friday at Gavilan.
Christopher falls to Salinas
Salinas got its bats going in the sixth inning and never looked back. 
Christopher lost its second straight at the hands of the Cowboys, 9-1, Tuesday at Hartnell Junior College.
Salinas scored two runs in the top of the second and another in the top of the fifth to lead Christopher 3-0. The Cougars answered in the bottom half of the inning to cut the lead to two, but their momentum was short lived. The Cowboys went on to score six runs in the top of the sixth for which Christopher had no answer.
Christopher finds itself in third place in the MBL-Gabilan Division following the loss with three games left in the season. The Cougars (13-10 overall, 8-7 in league) will take on Gilroy at 4 p.m. Friday at Gavilan.
