High School Sports

Christopher's Anthony Rodriguez and Pati Soria signed up to play sports in college during separate letters of intent signings on Tuesday.

Unmitigated joy on one end, heartbreak on the other. In the Central Coast Section Cross-Country Championships, the line between realizing a dream or experiencing emptiness often comes down to seconds—literally.

SAN JOSE—Gilroy went toe-to-toe with a team that is accustomed to blowing schools out but ultimately, couldn’t pulloff the upset.

Gilroy and Willow Glen needed two overtimes and two rounds of shootouts to finally settle things Wednesday in the first round of the Central Coast Section field hockey playoffs.

For a brief amount of time, it appeared as though Christopher would make a playoff comeback to be remembered.

Despite falling in its final two matches, the Christopher volleyball team is in the playoffs.

Gilroy rode strong second and fourth quarters to defeat Pajaro Valley 29-19 on Senior Night Saturday.

On a night of insane offensive numbers, it was a defensive play that ended it.

Gilroy High principal Marco Sanchez got pranked in the best possible way. After completing a “homework assignment” of tracking down contact information for 2016 California Wrestling Hall of Fame inductees given to him by director Lynn Dyche, the Mustangs’ wrestling coach was informed he would be enshrined this year, too.

The Gilroy football team had opportunities to steal a victory from North Monterey County last Saturday on the road.
