GILROY—It’s been quite a season for Jacob Moen and the Christopher football team. The senior linebacker and tight end helped the Cougars to a Monterey Bay League Pacific Division title, a Central Coast Section playoff berth, their fourth straight Severance Bowl title as well as retaining the South County Championship crown for the second year in a row.

After dropping its first game of the Aptos Tournament, Christopher rebounded with two big wins to close it out. 

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

GILROY—Gilroy and Notre Dame went basket-for-basket with each other all night—until the Mustangs silenced the Spirits in the fourth quarter.

GILROY—Being down a key player didn’t stop the Gilroy girls basketball team from opening the Mustang Classic Tournament with a bang.

GILROY—Losing six seniors can be a huge blow to a team—but not if the team happens to be the Gilroy wrestling squad.

GILROY—Alex Garcia etched his name into the Christopher record books last season when he became the first wrestler in school history to medal at state. This year, he’s looking to further cement his legacy and become the first Cougar to bring home a California Interscholastic Federation state title.

Gilroy and Watsonville battled for 80 minutes, but needed extra time to decide a winner. 

The Gilroy girls basketball team started its season off on the right foot. 

GILROY—On paper, there are a lot question marks surrounding Gilroy’s squad heading into the season. It graduated seven seniors and really only has one big man on the roster. It’s a young team, made up of mostly juniors and sophomores. But there’s an abundance of things you don't see on paper—and the Mustangs are more than happy to surprise their opponents.
