SALINAS—With 41 goals for Christopher this season, it’s no wonder Anthony Sammut earned the Mission Trail Athletic League’s top honors.

WATSONVILLE—Baseball is more than a sport for Aaron Whitehouse. For the Monte Vista Christian senior, it’s become a way to keep his father’s memory alive.

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

GILROY—Feather Haven upset HD Auto Glass Players 13-3 in Men’s Wednesday E Softball League action, leaving both teams at 4-1 at Christmas Hill Park on May 20.

GILROY—Just a few short weeks ago, the tracks at Christopher and Gilroy high schools were buzzing with athletes. On Tuesday, all that remained were four Cougars and one Mustang, as only five survived the Central Coast Section Semifinals on May 23.

The Christopher High volleyball program will host five general all skills camps this summer, with only 32 slots available per session. 

GILROY—This year’s 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup soccer tournament features not one, but two former Mustangs.

GILROY—Only one baseball player in Northern California gets the honor of being called the Player of the Year, and that player is Gavilan College pitcher Erik Barron.

SALINAS—Six Gilroyans earned their place on the 2015 Monterey Bay League Boys Volleyball All-League Teams.

GILROY—The Cougars were red-hot heading into Wednesday’s Central Coast Section Division I playoff game and were riding a four-game winning streaking. But unfortunately for Christopher, its ride ran out of gas.
