High School Sports

Christopher swimming ended the regular season in stellar fashion as it swept Everett Alvarez at home Friday. 

Christopher closed out the regular season on a high note, beating Gonzales in straight sets Thursday at home.

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

GILROY—Gilroy’s Tim Van Horn had two goals for his senior year: break the high jump record and earn a scholarship. On April 15, he checked off both.

Christopher won its third straight game Tuesday and now has a winning record for the first time this season. 

GILROY—Christopher’s Esteban Fabela was easy to miss during Tuesday night’s game.

With Monday's match against Alisal tied at 3-all, the Cougars' fate rested on the shoulders of No. 4 singles players Jesus Velasquez. 

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

GILROY—Gilroy’s Liezl Clark had been in a slump and struggling at the plate. She was off her mental game, Mustangs coach Julie Berggren said, but on Tuesday, Clark showed why she deserves her lead-off spot.

HOLLISTER—Facing a must-win situation against the team that has been the dominant baseball program in the greater South Valley area for the better part of a decade, Christopher High played one of its best games of the season.
