Gilroy High School

Justin Hale, Sam Aptekar, Jimmy Lemberger and Makaio Duyao were the go-to guys for their respective teams all season and Wednesday their value was recognized with All-League honors.

The spring season is just barely underway, but Christopher is already burning up the track.

Each week we recognize one area male and female athlete for their performance on the field of play. This week's are:

Frank LaCorte, a former Gilroy High and Gavilan College baseball star, had his No. 31 jersey retired by GHS on Saturday night during the Mustangs’ First Pitch Dinner and Silent Auction in the school’s Student Center.

GILROY—The Christopher girls tennis pulled out a 4-3 win over Everett Alvarez Tuesday at home but the Eagles didn’t make it easy. Three of the day’s matches needed a tiebreaker to decide a winner and ended with the Cougars on top each time.

GILROY—Gilroy was hoping its first home game would be a close, exciting game. Unfortunately for the Mustangs, they didn’t get what they hoped for.

GILROY — Garcia-Elder Sports Complex was all but empty following Gilroy’s game with North Salinas. The fans had cleared out, both teams made their ways to the lockerroom. But for one final time, senior running back Brandon Boyd took a knee at midfield, reflecting on “G” that represents Gilroy and everything he’s fought so hard for the last four years.

CASTROVILLE — If you somehow find a way to stop Brandon Boyd’s rushing attack, he’ll find another way to score.

Christopher’s Bella Marquez did her job in the cage and then got to test her skills on offense — and she came out firing.

Gilroy's Efren Pineda scored his fourth goal of the season and it was all his team would need to top Salinas 1-0 Tuesday on the road.
