GILROY — It may have been Senior Night at Gilroy High, but it was a freshman that shined.

Gilroy High boys basketball coach Tim Jones said his team has worked on crashing the boards in recent practices.

After being beaten in sudden death overtime by Monterey last month, the Cougars returned the favor.

Phillip Castro had 36 assists as Christopher High’s boys volleyball team rolled to a 25-22, 23-25, 25-7, 25-13 win at Alisal on Thursday.

The Christopher High boys basketball team had little time to dwell on a difficult one-point loss to Seaside on Tuesday, as the Cougars were back on the court Wednesday against host Pajaro Valley. After a tightly contested first quarter, CHS went on a tear, outscoring the Grizzlies 29-7 in the second quarter en route to an 86-41 victory.

Two teams that had been through nine frustrating weeks with a combined three victories to show for resilient effort locked horns for a season-finale worth more than a ‘W’ in the standings on a cold Friday night in Gilroy.
