The Varsity Girls Water Polo lost Thursday night against Harbor 12-11 after beating Alvarez 29-9 on Tuesday.

Carmel made it clear from the beginning that they were going to run the ball and rely on their running back Covossay Windham in a 42-14 win over Christopher on Sept. 9.

Live Oak used Jacob Ryder’s 77-yard-run in the second play of the second half as a spark on its way to a 14-35 win over the Cougars.

Dylan Holler and Joseph Barnes had nights for the books.

For the sixth time in a row, Christopher rang the Severance Bell after defeating Gilroy 27-13 Friday night in the season opener.

Christopher went winless in the Gabilan Division a year ago, so it seemed fair to ask Coach Tim Pierleoni if the goal for the season was to get his team qualified for the playoffs.

After back-to-back three-win seasons, Gilroy is looking to start a new trend in 2016.

When R.J. Collins and Jesus Limon graduated from high school, no colleges offered them a scholarship. But after two seasons playing for Gavilan College, Collins and Limon are a step closer to their dreams of playing for a four-year university. Last Friday the two were inside the Gavilan gymnasium in front of family, friends and teammates to confirm their signings.

Gavilan football players are getting a much-needed breather this week and next as the Rams have reached their state-imposed practice limits.

Entering its 41st year of existence, the Bill Flodberg Mt. Madonna Challenge added a unique challenge this year to continue to add something new for runners of the race set to run Aug. 20.
