Gavilan College

QUINCY—Gavilan went 0-2 at the Feather River College Classic Saturday in Quincy.

Gavilan left Sacramento with a split decision. The Rams lost 3-1 to Sacramento City but rebounded with a sweep of Lassen Tuesday at the Sacramento City College Classic.

GILROY—If a few things went differently, Gavilan could’ve secured its first win on Sept. 12. One less penalty or fumble, one more completion or tackle and the Rams might’ve headed home victorious. Instead, they fell 32-29 to Mendocino at Christopher High. And coach Mike Dovenberg is determined not to let that happen again.

GILROY—Gavilan finished 1-3 at the Delta College Classic Saturday after facing some tough competition.

FAIRFIELD—Gavilan talked a lot about cohesiveness prior to the season and on Friday, the Rams put their words into action.

REDDING—Gavilan dropped its 2015 season opener 56-6 at Shasta College Saturday. The loss was due in part to too many penalties and not enough yards.

GILROY—In life, things can happen quickly—and Gavilan’s Albert Medrano, knows this all too well.

The current Gavilan Rams soccer team squared off with alumni players during the annual alumni game Aug. 28 at the college. It was the final test for the Rams before kicking off their season Aug. 31 at Butte. 

GILROY—The camaraderie in the Gavilan College gym Tuesday was undeniable. After each drill, the Rams volleyball players huddled together to acknowledge each other's accomplishments, always ending with a “Go Rams” chant before breaking. That, head coach Kevin Kramer said, is what an entire summer of bonding does for a team.

GILROY—When Ricardo Espinosa took over Gavilan’s soccer team last season, he said the odds were already against him. With the recruiting season over prior to his arrival, he had little time to piece together a team and the result was a 2-15-3 record.
