Christopher and North Salinas duked it out Tuesday, but neither could gain an edge. 

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.

GILROY—The big swings from Ally Foster and Olivia Tabron had Christopher fans going wild, but there was another Cougar in the middle that made her presence known Tuesday night: Khaya Price.

GILROY — The Mustangs didn’t just snap their four-game losing streak, they shattered it.

CLOVIS—Christopher’s Ally Foster has hit 18 feet in the long jump before, but her previous attempts have always been scratches. Not this time.

The Christopher girls golf team was holding its breath as the final scores were tallied. A collective sigh of relief could be heard as the Cougars (6-0) won their closest match of the year, a 283-290 win over Salinas at home Monday. Christopher Natalie Gutierrez and Salinas High's Madison Chapman tied for medalist honors, both shooting a 47. Gutierrez and Chapman both had multiple pars in the match. Nina Velez shot a 54 for the Cougars, while Alex Granados shot a personal best of 57.  Christopher will be back in action at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday at Pacific Grove.  

GILROY—Gunderson handed Gilroy its first lost of the season and unfortunately for the Mustangs, it was in the Mustang Classic Tournament Championship game.
