Christopher High School

GILROY — It may have been a bye week for Christopher, but the team was doing anything but resting.

FIELD HOCKEY

Three second-half goals not only took care of Monterey, but also solidified the Christopher High field hockey team’s first Mission Trail Athletic League championship Friday afternoon.

GILROY—Xavier Smith knocked down a shot as the clock faded out on Friday’s home finale against Seaside—and the gym went into a frenzy. 

SANTA CLARA—Christopher was on the cusp of erasing a 10-point halftime deficit against Los Gatos when the Wildcats’ coach called timeout midway through the fourth quarter.

GILROY—The third quarter has been Christopher’s Achilles heel and Thursday night was no different as North Salinas mauled the Cougars 69-38 in the Monterey Bay League-Gabilan Division opener.

Erin Mank is shining at home. 

When Gilroy’s Kimberly Davis and San Benito’s Corey Latham woke up Saturday morning, the two seniors couldn’t help but think about the possibility that they would be swimming in their final individual events of their high school career.

Pat Valdez had two hits, and Robert Driscal doubled and drove in a run, but Christopher High’s baseball team suffered a 4-1 loss to Wilcox to open the Valley Christian tourney Monday.

Christopher and Monterey went to battle Tuesday, but had to settle for the tie.
