Gilroy High School

MORGAN HILL—A year after two running games went wild to open the season, Live Oak and Gilroy took a different tact, but the result was the same.

Friends, family and familiar faces gathered on the pool deck at Christopher High as the town’s two water polo programs met head to head Thursday afternoon.

Nine Christopher wrestlers walked away victorious Wednesday following the team's 57-24 win at North Salinas.

You can just call them the comeback kids.

GILROY—This time last year, Gilroy field hockey coach Adam Gemar was scratching his head and wondering how he was going to make it through the season with only 13 girls. When the Central Coast Section mandatory dead period ended on Aug. 15, the Mustangs saw between 30 and 35 girls turn out for practice. What a difference a year can make.

After pole vaulting to a personal-best 13-feet, 9-inches at last Thursday's dual meet against Salinas, senior Luis Magana had it mind to literally raise the bar. Magana set his sights on 14-feet – and he had two chances to do it during a busy weekend at the track for select members of the Gilroy High track and field team.

When the Gilroy Mustangs came to play, they were unbeatable. Their 18-0 record in the Monterey Bay League’s Pacific Division proved that.

For the second straight game, Christopher knocked off the league-leading San Benito. 

The Christopher girls tennis was finally at full strength, having all its varsity players present for it's match against Monte Vista Christian.
