GILROY—The score of the Christopher and Gilroy volleyball game was quickly forgotten by the players Thursday night. After the match, Cougars and Mustangs talked, laughed and posed for pictures together and for the seniors, the evening was bittersweet.

Each week we will recognize one area male and female athlete for their performances. This week's are:

GILROY—Any doubts about Christopher have been wiped away. The Cougars were dominate on both sides of the ball in their 48-14 pummeling of Live Oak on Sept. 12 at home. The offense, which produced just 12 points against Sobrato, racked up 390 yards on the Acorns—365 of which came in the air.

GILROY—Gilroy coach Brian Boyd was at a loss for words following the team’s 39-0 shutout loss to Sobrato on Sept. 13.

Natalie Gutierrez continues to shine for the Christopher girls golf team.

Both Gilroy water polo teams made a splash on Tuesday.

Christopher's match with Pacific Grove was as close as it gets. 

Nothing got passed Gilroy's Jackie Jauragui at the Leigh Roundup field hockey tournament.

MORGAN HILL—“This is truly your home now,” Sobrato coach Albert King said to his team which cheered and howled with pride.

Two Cougars had the games of their lives and it all came at the expense of Live Oak.
