GILROY — Emma Leach has been playing field hockey at the Garcia-Elder Sports Complex for almost her entire career. On Wednesday, she had to say goodbye.

Run for those who can’t.

The Gilroy girls volleyball team is on a roll. The Mustangs ignited a two-game winning streak with a 3-0 win over Pajaro Valley at home Wednesday. GHS won 25-18, 25-9, 25-20.  Sarah Weiby led the way for Gilroy, racking up 11 kills in the game.

All eyes turned to No. 3 singles player Tiffany Roberts to take home a 'W' for the Cougars — and she didn't disappoint. Roberts won the first set 6-3, but dropped the second 4-6.

Adena Chen, Christopher's No. 2, also won her match 6-4, 6-2 in singles' play. 

Leilani Mah was unstoppable for Gilroy Monday.   Mah led the Mustangs volleyball team to a 3-0 win over Monterey on the road, snapping a five-game losing streak. GHS won 25-22, 25-19, 25-21 to improve to an overall 3-11 record and 2-8 in league.    Mah racked up...

Gavilan is still perfect.
