GILROY—It was déjà vu for Gilroy and Christopher as they met for the second and final time this season.

BAKERSFIELD – Paul Fox and Nikko Villarreal have led Gilroy High’s wrestling team all season.

Andrew Foster had 21 points, Wyatt Rocheleau 20 and Takoda Bowers 16, as the Christopher High boys varsity basketball team trumped visiting Pajaro Valley with its highest scoring out put of the season in a 85-53 victory Thursday night.

San Benito carried the VFW Memorial Trophy to midfield for the ceremonial coin toss and ran right back to Hollister with it for the third straight season three hours later.

Gilroy High wrestling coach Greg Varela said this past weekend's 35th annual Doc Buchanan Invitational - a tournament that hosts the who's, who of California's top-ranked wrestlers - served as a mid-term-like indicator as the season makes a turn for crunch time. The Mustangs are sitting above the curve.

Nick Villarreal is a quiet, unassuming humble kid at first glance.

For the past three and a half years, Tara Flores has devoted her life to roller derby.

GILROY — The Cougars have been the comeback kids all season and Friday was no different.

Gilroy is coming off of one of its best seasons in years and the Mustangs are hoping to keep that going as they enter the home stretch of the practice before the Aug. 25 kickoff.

The Saints made a push late in Saturday's game against Christopher, but Cougars' pitcher Darren Santos held them off.
