Gavilan College

GILROY—Three Gavilan College running backs erupted for more than 100 yards apiece Saturday night to key a convincing 44-21 Gold Coast League victory over Cabrillo at Christopher High School.

GILROY—Over the summer, Kevin Kramer received an early Christmas gift—two of them actually. In a span of two months, the Gavilan College women’s volleyball coach learned one of his top players from last year—outside hitter Samantha Nydam—would be returning for her sophomore year at Gavilan.

Gavilan volleyball went 1-1 at the Fullerton College Classic Friday in Fullerton.
