Coming into its regular season finale, The Master's College baseball team knew it didn't have a chance to qualify for the Golden State Athletic Conference tournament.
Earlier in the week, Saugus baseball couldn't get much of anything going offensively against Golden Valley.
This is a new Golden Valley boys volleyball. New attitude. New approach. That's what it committed itself to coming into the day. After two losses in its last three Foothill League matches, the Grizzlies got what they needed, a 3-0 (25-19, 25-21, 25-12) dispatching of Canyon on Thursday at Golden Valley High. "When we put pressure on ourselves, we don't play as well," said Golden Valley senior setter Colton Korne in reference to his team's ...
All the pressure was on Valencia. Going into Wednesday's Foothill League boys tennis finale, it hadn't lost a single dual match this season. Its top singles and doubles players hadn't dropped a set in league play. Yet the Vikings were the more cool and collected team against West Ranch, making the shots when they needed to and winning enough close sets to take a 15-3 win at West Ranch High School. It marks the fifth ...
Hart boys volleyball has many different formulas for success. That came in handy when one of its top hitters was having an off day. Canyon learned the hard way that the Indians are capable of adapting on the fly during a 3-0 Hart win on Tuesday at Canyon High. Hart had a scare in the second game, but held on for the sweep, 25-16, 25-22 and 25-18. Senior J.J. Mosolf, normally one of Hart's best ...
Alec Schlossman had every reason not to play volleyball. Those who know him probably wouldn't be surprised to find out he stuck with it. The 17-year-old is not exactly the quitting type. But the Golden Valley junior has had plenty of hurdles to clear along the way. When he was a freshman, Schlossman played for both the school's freshman basketball team and a team at Legacy Volleyball Club. Eventually, he would have to choose one ...
Just winning a couple games isn't enough for Canyon baseball this year. It wants to be a legitimate Foothill League contender. The Cowboys helped their case with a convincing 10-3 win over West Ranch on Friday at Canyon High. It puts Canyon (9-12, 4-5) just a game behind the Wildcats for third place in the standings thanks to a complete-game pitching performance by J.T. Arguellez and timely contributions from the top of batting order. "We've ...
It isn't that Hart boys volleyball isn't taking its opponents seriously. The team just has a certain swagger all of a sudden. Since returning on Tuesday from playing nine matches in a Las Vegas tournament, Hart boys volleyball has dominated two straight Foothill League opponents in two days, keeping a secure hold of second place behind Valencia. After a shutout of Golden Valley on Wednesday, the Indians repeated with another 3-0 takedown of West Ranch ...
Sometimes the best way to judge a pitcher is to based on his response when under duress. Enter Hart's Tyler Glasnow, who struggled a bit with control early on Wednesday and had to pitch with his team behind nearly the entire game. Glasnow's refusal to give in paid off in the seventh inning, when the Hart bats came up with two big runs that resulted in a 2-1 Foothill League victory over Saugus on Wednesday ...
A decade ago, Valencia boys volleyball was nothing more than an up-and-coming program at a relatively new school.
Closing in on the last few series of the season, The Master's College baseball needs to win games any way it can.
Canyon baseball had the hitting part figured out. It was just a matter of doing it with runners on base.
Everyone knew what was at stake. The players and coaches from both teams knew. The crowd knew. Valencia boys volleyball was just one Foothill League win away from tying the all-time California record of 96 consecutive league wins. Standing in the way was Hart, which was also unbeaten this year in league play coming into the match. But once it got going and the initial nerves wore off, it was just another volleyball match. And ...
The hard-fought wins can often be the most rewarding ones. That's especially the case for Saugus baseball, which had been struggling in Foothill League play prior to spring break. Equipped with a renewed sense of urgency, the Centurions escaped with a 4-3 win over Canyon and snapped a four-game league losing skid on Wednesday at Saugus High School. It also ended a two-game league winning streak for the Cowboys. It appeared Saugus (7-10, 2-4) had ...
Saugus was caught by surprise, but managed to find its stride before it was too late. The Centurions pulled off a come-from-behind 11-7 win over Hart on Tuesday at Saugus High after falling behind 7-2 early on. The comeback began when Saugus' No. 3 doubles team of Kevin Okimoto and Josh Hill rallied from a 4-1 deficit to win a set 7-5 over Hart's Tommy LeBat and Cody Berlioz. That sparked a streak of nine ...
