Breaking away from the position of many U.S. farmers, Christopher Ranch, the nation’s premier garlic company, announced on Tuesday, Sept. 18, that it fully supports the imposition of a 10 percent tariff on imported Chinese garlic (under the United States Trade Representative Section 301 Investigation). “Christopher Ranch applauds the decision of the U.S. trade representative to raise the tariff to 25 percent on Jan. 1, 2019,” said Ken Christopher, executive vice president of Christopher Ranch, based in Gilroy. “For decades, Chinese exporters have flooded the US market with cheap and often illegally dumped garlic, and this tariff will help to level the playing field for American garlic farmers.”

Medieval Faire returns By Debra Eskinazi Magazine and Features Editor

Nearly 10,000 people were transported to the past when the Northern California Renaissance Faire kicked off its six-weekend extravaganza on Saturday, Sept. 15. Visitors to Casa de Fruta, about 14 miles east of Gilroy and 12 miles north of Hollister on Highway 152, discovered medieval worldclass jousting tournaments, court jesters, buxom wenches wielding ales, fair maidens, men in kilts,

warriors, brave knights and fireeating performers. Frances Larose, director of marketing for the Northern California Renaissance Faire, said the hope is to grow the Faire even more and bring in more families. “That is why we have added a sixth weekend, Halloween Fantasy,” said Larose. “It is geared to local families and friends.” Renaissance Faire visitors were entertained with theatrical and musical performances on

six busy stages, a tournament of horses and even giant turkey legs in a royal food court. “Our knights are dashing and fearless,” said Larose. “They entertain audiences with a full contact joust, featuring shattering lances and riveting sword fighting.” With so many things to do, Larose recommended that visitors pick up a schedule at the front gate, plan out their day and even stop in the Belrose Costume

shop for some festival-appropriate attire. “Besides the games we have fire eating, with revelry, dancing, glass blowing and amazing artisans with hand crafted wear,” said Larose. Visit the Northern California Renaissance Faire weekends through Oct. 21. Visitors can receive a $5 discount for the second and third weekends when buying online at norcalrenfaire. com.

Gilroy teachers, district reach agreement TENTATIVE PACT INCREASES PAY 2% EACH YEAR FOR THREE YEARS FROM JULY ‘17 By Scott Forstner Reporter

58015 02001

The Gilroy Unified School District late Tuesday afternoon, Sept. 18, announced it had reached a tentative agreement with the Gilroy Teachers

Association on a new labor contract for certificated employees. The agreement covers three years, and provides a 2 percent increase per year, from July 2017. “With a term ending June 30, 2020, it provides for a 2 percent ongoing increase to certificated salary schedules effective July 1, 2017; a 2 percent ongoing increase to certificated salary schedules effective Jan. 1, 2018; as well as a 2 percent ongoing increase to certificated salary schedules effective Jan. 1, 2019,” the district said.

Additionally, the district agreed to an increase in contributions to health benefits, an increase to the hourly rate and an increase to extra duty stipends. Last Friday, Sept. 14, both sides attended an all-day hearing before a three-person panel that included an impartial state fact finder, presented arguments and data supporting their positions and then bargained late into the evening. The two sides held another bargaining session on Tuesday where the tentative agreement was reached.

“Today’s tentative agreement demonstrates the District’s deep and ongoing commitment to increases in certificated salaries and compensation,” said Board President Linda Piceno. “We are pleased that both sides engaged in good-faith bargaining through the state’s impasse resolution process,” said Supt. Deborah A. Flores. “We were able reach to common ground in a spirit of compromise and collaboration.” ➝ Teachers, 14

Catholic HS plans hinge on LAFCO PRELIMINARY SCHOOL PLAN CALLS FOR 1,600 STUDENT BODY, 100 FACULTY MEMBERS Scott Forstner Reporter

File Photo

While a city annexation plan is moving forward once again, the brainstorming behind a South County Catholic high school is already well under way and has been for a number of years. The Diocese of San Jose said fundraising, a construction timetable and overall project costs have been put on hold until the Local Agency Formation Commission rules on the City of Morgan Hill’s annexation request, by mid-December at the earliest. Proponents of a new Catholic high school southeast of Morgan Hill are keeping their fingers crossed that the county body will change course from previous denials and allow them to build the private school. “We did some preliminary fundraising before 2016 but decided to postpone our campaign until it is passed through LAFCO,” said Rev. Steve Kim of St. Lucy Parish in Campbell. Kim has been designated as the spokesperson for the Catholic Diocese of San Jose and those trying to turn a concept into a reality for South County families. “Once it is approved

through LAFCO, we will immediately set a timeline and move forward with the campaign,” Kim added. Earlier cost estimates, now more than two years old, were around $30 million to build the high school. However, with rising construction costs in a competitive market due to several variables, such as the availability of matching state funds for public and charter schools, that figure could increase greatly by the time ground is broken. The proposed school site, more than 65 acres of land in the southeast quadrant of Morgan Hill, is bound by Tennant Avenue to the south, Murphy Avenue to the west, Barrett Avenue to the north and abuts an agricultural field to the east. The Morgan Hill City Council voted 3-2 on Sept. 5 to submit an application to annex the land to LAFCO. Although unable to provide specific figures on costs, Kim did detail preliminary school plans and ideologies gathered through feedback from stakeholders within South County. The school would start out with a freshman class and grow each year until reaching a full high school enrollment of up to 1,600 students in grades 9-12 with about 100 faculty members, according to Kim. The school, which if approved, will be called St. John XXIII College Preparatory, has a mission statement “to educate and cultivate ambassadors of

SCHOOL SKETCH The fate of a proposal for this South County Catholic High School is headed to LAFCO for consideration. faith, ethics and knowledge in service to humanity,” according to a proposed school profile being developed by the Diocese. Kim shared that organizers have surveyed and interviewed parents, students and stakeholders in Morgan HIll to see what they are looking for in a Catholic high school and will continue to do so as they finalize their plans. However, nothing is set is stone, Kim added. “With our core values of design thinking, learn by doing and strong values, we look forward to many projects that deal with partnering with local farmers and environmentalists to work on sustainability,” said Kim of a curriculum focus at the school.

“St. John XXIII College Preparatory will be established for the purpose of developing and creating students who are collaborative, resilient and creative problem solvers through the concept of design thinking,” as described by organizers. “The students can and will be shapers of knowledge through this teaching and learning curriculum.” The Diocese still has a long road ahead with the key hurdle being LAFCO approval to annex the land into city limits. In October 2015, the City Council submitted to LAFCO a series of land-use plans called the Southeast Quadrant for annexation into the city. The land for the proposed

high school was included in these plans. In March 2016 the committee denied the annexation request. A city is only allowed to submit plans to the committee once a year. With the decision coming a year later, the city submitted a request to annex only the land for the South County Catholic High School. The request was denied in June 2016. The 2018 annexation amendment would include nearly 65 acres of land on Murphy Avenue, between Barrett and Tennant avenues. The land is within the city’s urban growth boundary, but not within city limits. In order to receive city services such as fire, water and power, the land would need to be annexed.

Private schools within county

In Santa Clara County, there are 241 private schools, serving 50,695 students, according to privateschoolreview.com. About 40 percent of those schools are religiously affiliated, most commonly Roman Catholic and Christian. Bellarmine Prep, Archbishop Mitty, Valley Christian and St. Francis are among the most popular private high schools in the county. In Morgan Hill, there’s Oakwood School, Crossroads Christian and St. Catherine’s. In Gilroy, there’s Pacific West Christian Academy and Anchorpoint Christian School.

Challenger blames county for snafu J. HIROKAWA MISSES KEY DEADLINE THEN GETS HIS INFO STATEMENT IN BOOKLETS By Jennifer Wadsworth

Greg Ramar

For a contest marked by so much scandal and mudslinging leading up to the June primary, the Santa Clara County sheriff’s race seemed oddly quiet lately. But Sheriff Laurie Smith’s challenger, retired Department of Corrections chief John Hirokawa, was apparently scrambling behind the scenes this past week after missing a deadline to get his candidate statement on the fall ballot. It took two court motions and a whole lot of fingerpointing to remedy the misstep so Hirokawa’s name wouldn’t appear next to a blank box on the election booklets mailed to about 850,000 prospective voters. He pulled it off by simultaneously shifting blame on the county and tapping insiders at the same agency for help, putting one political backer especially in a tough spot. Missing a deadline that most other candidates routinely meet is another apparent misstep in a campaign that has cycled through campaign managers and struggled to find its footing since Hirokawa emerged second in a field of five candidates to challenge Smith in the general election—the first contested runoff in two decades. Rather than picking up momentum, however, Hirokawa remained on the defensive over the

involvement of his leading backer and close political ally, Deputy Sheriffs Association President Don Morrissey, in a racist texting scandal. Morrissey resigned as union head on July 26, eight weeks after the primary. The last day to submit a candidate statement to the Registrar of Voters (ROV) was Aug. 10, but Hirokawa didn’t realize he blew past the deadline until three weeks after the fact, on Aug. 31, according to his initial legal petition. “I was unaware of this requirement as I never received the candidate booklet from the ROV and due to confusion, neglect or mistake failed to recognize this was a required deadline as set forth in the primary booklet,” he wrote under penalty of perjury, which seems to contradict records showing that he signed for a copy of the guide on March 8. Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Helen Williams rejected the motion, saying state election law “does not provide relief for lack of compliance.” So Hirokawa gave it another shot. This time, however, he cast his noncompliance as more the county's fault. In a more detailed petition filed Sept. 4—just two days before the ROV sent its voter guides to the printer—the ex-undersheriff said he was “puzzled” by his statement not automatically rolling over to the runoff, blaming the county’s “unclear and confusing” rules and unnamed ROV staff for misinforming him about the process. Though records show

HIROKAWA Retired Undersheriff John Hirokawa is challenging incumbent Laurie Smith for the sheriff ’s office. that the ROV sent a letter dated July 12 from interim Election Division Coordinator Linda Tulett to remind Hirokawa of the upcoming deadline, he said he never saw it. Again under penalty of perjury, Hirokawa stated that nothing in the candidate booklet—the one he said he didn’t obtain in time—addresses the issue of repurposing statements filed before the primary. Maybe he skipped the multiple pages in the candidate guide listing important dates to remember, including the Aug. 10 deadline in question. Four county employees helped Hirokawa salvage the situation, according to court

records. On Aug. 31, he spoke to Assistant Registrar of Voters Virginia Bloom, who, in his telling, acknowledged that the rules are confusing and assured him that the county would refrain from opposing his appeal. Over the next few days, Hirokawa also emailed back and forth with County Counsel deputies Steve Mitra and Danielle Goldstein, telling them about his conversation with Bloom and his intent to challenge the ROV in court. He looped in a third county attorney, Hirokawa campaign donor Cheryl Stevens, on her private email address. The possible conflict came to light when Hirokawa

attached email headers to his court filings and Smith supporters brought the email chain with Stevens to the attention of the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s office. John Chase, head of the DA’s Public Integrity Unit, contacted on Tuesday, refused to confirm or deny whether an investigation was underway into possible conflicts of interest in the counsel’s office. Stevens was not available at her office telephone number on Tuesday, but the county’s Employee Services Agency described her status as “active.” She didn’t answer multiple emails to her county and personal addresses by press time.

County Counsel Legal and Compliance Officer Kim Forrester said Stevens has been out of the office since Sept. 5. That’s a day after Hirokawa’s ex parte court hearing, when he submitted copies of his email correspondence to the judge. As for the missed deadline fiasco, Hirokawa chalked it up to “simply a bureaucratic error on the ROV’s part.” “In fact,” he added, “my petition was not opposed in court by the ROV, and my candidate statement will be on the November ballot.” Jennifer Wadsworth is the News Editor for San Jose Inside and Metro newspaper.

OPINION LETTERS

Government is not elementary

DAVE KRANTZ

Tone down waterwar rhetoric

fter more than 1,000 Central Valley residents converged on the north steps of the state Capitol last month to protest planned redirection of water supplies, and more turned out to the next day’s state water board hearing on the topic, reporters and editorial writers fell back on time-worn language to describe the situation. “Stage set for uncivil war over water in California,” the Courthouse News service wrote in its headline, before referring in the story’s first sentence to “California’s ceaseless war to manage shrinking water sources.” The disagreements revolve around how to benefit salmon and other fish in three rivers that feed into the San Joaquin River, and whether the State Water Resources Control Board should follow through on a plan to require much more water to be left in the rivers in the form of “unimpaired flows.” Bellicose language likely detracts from sincere efforts to resolve the situation to the benefit of all parties. Talk of “war” implies that there will ultimately be winners and losers. Goodfaith efforts by irrigation districts and other water users aim to avoid that, by addressing core issues affecting fish populations in the San Joaquin and Sacramento river systems without requiring wholesale shifts in water allocations along those systems. A letter addressed to the state water board by the California Farm Bureau Federation—and signed by more than 50 other agricultural, water and business associations—urged the board to support “voluntary and creative solution-finding.” For example, functional flows—dedicating just the right amount of water at the appropriate time for maximum effect—have shown results in improving fisheries. So have non-flow alternatives, including measures to create additional habitat or address species that prey on protected fish. A quote from the coalition letter bears repeating: “Until every opportunity has

been exhausted for creative conservation and collaboration, a difficult and damaging regulatory path which is premised upon uncertain future fisheries successes should be avoided at all costs.” One reason so many people turned out at the rally to express concern about the water board’s approach was their frustration that such good-faith efforts at creative conservation appeared to have been rejected out of hand. Instead, the board seemed bound to follow staff recommendations for an outdated, flows-only approach that has failed repeatedly in the past. In fact, representatives of environmental organizations who spoke at the water board hearing said the approach is likely to fail this time, saying the board plans to direct too little water to fisheries. The notion that more water equals more fish remains powerful, even in the face of improving science and ample evidence to the contrary. Unfortunately, decades of perceived “water wars” have hardened views on all sides of the issue. The Farm Bureau works to avoid being pulled into the “water wars” discussion. When describing our opposition to the water board proposal, we stress that this is not a fish vs. farms equation. California needs both fish and people to thrive, and that can be done without inflicting the harm to people the board’s plan would demand. We also point out that everyone who uses water in California needs to be efficient— including environmental flows. The water board plan would require a lot of water and, by all accounts, wouldn’t produce many more fish. Instead of trying to win a “water war” that someone else has declared, we need to keep the focus on these genuine, continuing efforts to find solutions that benefit both the environment and the economy. Dave Kranz is communications manager for the California Farm Bureau Federation.

Dear editor, Last Tuesday I attended the Rotary forum with the City Council candidates. Each candidate was invited to participate and was given one minute for introduction, followed by a twominute answer four related questions on homelessness, downtown, economic development and city budget priorities. At the conclusion, candidates were given one minute to summarize what set them apart from the other. Candidates were not given the questions in advance and had to be prepared in advance. I made some important observations that I think voters should be aware of because there are few forums where they can really understand how prepared the candidates are to represent Gilroy. City government is complicated and is not elementary. We need to elect servants who can represent us well by knowing and understanding all the issues that face our city, and candidates demonstrate they are committed by being well prepared for events like this. I couldn’t help but notice how clear the difference was between the candidates, their understanding of the issues and their plans. Dan Harney, Marie Blankley and Dion Bracco were clear and concise about their actionable plans for each topic. Considering the looming financial challenges facing Gilroy, we should elect candidates who can clearly state how they prioritize our tax dollars for public safety, infrastructure and quality of life. We should not elect individuals because they are disappointed how our city government has operated in recent years. What is their plan? It was not evident at this forum. I was born and raised in Gilroy, and now I am a local small business owner and a proud new father. I want a council that can plan for our future and is committed to representing us by understanding the issues and one with a clear strategic plan. It’s regrettable that there are few forums like this one where candidates can present their plans to the voters because the future of Gilroy depends on strong leadership. Ryan DInsmore

Increased rail service a good idea for region Regarding the possible expansion of passenger/ commuter rail to Hollister and Salinas, I do feel the time has come. Upgrading the historic Hollister Branch rail line for makes sense. Considering the heavy traffic on highways 101 and25 it is warranted. In my opinion, the perfect train set equipment to use is called a Diesel Multiple Unit. Low-emission DMUs are currently in use by SMART (Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit) between San Rafael & Santa Rosa. SMART has enjoyed overwhelming success attracting riders and reducing traffic on this corridor. Also, expanding the current Caltrain from Gilroy is also very viable and may be the least costly alternative. For those commuters frustrated with long drive times to and from Siilcon Valley, I urge them to contact their government representatives to support and lobby for increased rail service to our area. Gary V. Plomp

DOMENICHINI CONSTRUCTION has been selected by REMODELING magazine to join the REMODELING Big50. Each year since 1986, the REMODELING Big50 inducts 50 remodeling companies that have set exceptionally high standards for professionalism and integrity through exemplary business practices, craftsmanship, and impact in their community or the industry at large. Remodeling companies which are fortunate enough to be part of the prestigious Big50 run successful, often growing, companies of various sizes that have taken the lead in raising industry standards. “To get a sense of how unique this status is, consider there are roughly 98,000 remodeling firms in America with paid staff,” noted Craig Webb, REMODELING’s Editor-in-Chief. “Since 1986, we have selected only about 1,600 firms. That’s just 1.6% of all the remodeling businesses in the country today.” To the remodeling industry, being part of the Big 50 is a great honor, such as the Hall of Fame is to a talented athlete. “We’ve been honored to receive several accolades this year including three categories in Home Builder Digest’s Best of Silicon Valley and more locally, the Best General Contractor and Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeler in Morgan Hill for 2018”, says David Domenichini, Owner of D.R. Domenichini Construction. “We are truly humbled to receive this national recognition and feel privileged to be named to this select group of remodelers.” REMODELING editors, columnists, industry leaders, and companies themselves make the nominations each year. Following a lengthy evaluation and interview process, the editors select the 50 companies that exemplify the best of the industry that year, and that have something to offer other remodelers in proven practices. The Big50 awards will be presented at a dinner at the Remodelers Summit and Awards Gala on Wednesday, September 26, 2018, in New Orleans. The 2018 Big50 winners are featured in the August-September issue of REMODELING, a national trade publication read by more than 150,000 professional remodeling contractors.

Candidates have plans for downtown CITY COUNCIL HOPEFULS FLOAT IDEA OF SEIZING SOME PROPERTY Jaqueline McCool Reporter

Businesses in downtown Gilroy have begun to show their support for City Council candidates, placing lawn signs in their windows. Candidates, meanwhile, are making it clear that the city’s sagging downtown is an issue they want to tackle, many of them with a hardline stance. At a Sept.11 candidate forum hosted by the Gilroy Rotary Club, candidates were asked for their ideas to attract downtown business development. Several candidates surprised an audience filled with small business owners by floating the idea of taking properties from owners through eminent domain, in an effort to aggressively remake Monterey Street to make it more appealing to residents and tourists. Downtown property owner Gary Walton, president of the Gilroy Downtown Business Association, said the idea of using eminent domain to spur development of idle properties is misguided. He dismissed the idea, saying that if the City Council knew how to fix the problem, “it would already be done.” Walton’s association does not endorse candidates because it is a 501c non-profit organization. The Gilroy Chamber of Commerce was set to endorse a pro-business slate on Tuesday night, Sept. 18. Councilmember Dion

Bracco was the first to raise the idea of eminent domain, which governments can use in certain circumstances to buy property at appraised values for a public purpose. The practice is most often used for highways. Bracco told the Dispatch that he envisioned eminent domain being a last resort for property owners who refused to upgrade their buildings to current earthquake retrofitting standards. Candidate Reid Lerner, of Reid Lerner Architects, a Monterey Street business for 18 years, has worked with Walton and the association throughout his time as an architect. He called using eminent domain a “bad idea.” “My perspective is different from other candidates,” said Lerner, “because I’ve actually fixed a building downtown.” Lerner thinks eminent domain is a “politician solution” to the problem with downtown. “It’s never a good idea to take someone’s property.” Lerner accused Bracco of selling his own property downtown instead of fixing it. Bracco denied Lerner’s statement, saying he had sold property that had been a tow yard on Luchesa Avenue that intersects Monterey back in 2012, but never owned property downtown. “He’s making up stories,” said Bracco. Candidates Carol Marques, Tim Renggli and Tom Fischer as well as incumbents Daniel Harney and Bracco all told the Dispatch they supported seizing buildings that did not attempt to comply with city standards. In a statement to the

DOWNTOWN FOCUS Gary Walton of the Gilroy Downtown Business Association offers advice. Dispatch Harney said, “I support the use of eminent domain against delinquent owners and to allow new investors to create new opportunities.” Harney serves as the City Council representative on the Gilroy Business Association, and Fischer is the association’s representative from the Gilroy Planning Commission. Both candidates support some kind of eminent domain approach if building owners do not comply with building standards. Fischer called the practice a “last resort.” In attempt to come up with a plan, Bracco said he has asked the council

to put a discussion about downtown on the agenda. Bracco told the Dispatch eminent domain would be “the last course of action when all other avenues have been exhausted.” In his vision, Bracco said he would like to start with two or three of “the worst buildings,” giving owners six months to take concrete action toward refurbishing them. At that point, Bracco said, the owners would be given a choice to sell their building to a private buyer or to the city. Vacant unreinforced masonry buildings on Monterey Street were a recurring point of concern among candidates.

Incumbent Peter LeroeMuñoz told the Dispatch, “We still have work to get those last buildings fixed and improved.” Parking downtown was also on candidates’ minds when discussing downtown revitalization. Some candidates felt that increasing parking and even building a designated parking structure would draw more people to the downtown center. Renggli and Harney supported building a structure, with Harney said the ideal site would be somewhere near Eigleberry and Sixth Street. In combination with renovating the Arts Center downtown, Harney said funding for a

parking structure should be further explored. “Our current plan for the art center seeks $3-4 million in funding while a downtown parking structure, ideally located on Eigleberry between Fifth & Sixth Streets, would require an additional $5-6 million,” said Harney. “I am supportive of exploring options to finance both these projects without raising taxes.” Fischer didn’t think a structure was the answer to parking problems downtown. He said a shortage of spaces is not the problem, but rather a shortage of spaces directly in front of businesses.

CHAD BROWNING FACES MAXIMUM SENTENCE OF FIVE YEARS, EIGHT MONTHS Michael Moore Reporter

Former Hollister Police Officer Chad Browning has been charged with four crimes in relation to an alleged Sept. 9 crime spree that started with vehicle theft in Fresno and ended with Gilroy Police shooting at him before he could drive onto a local football field full of children. Browning, 42, of Fresno, was arraigned Sept. 12 at the Morgan Hill Courthouse, his first court appearance following his Sept. 9 arrest at Gilroy High School. He was charged with assault with a deadly weapon on a police officer, vehicle theft, petty theft and possession of methamphetamine, according to South Santa Clara County Supervising Deputy District Vishal Bathija. Browning’s next hearing is scheduled for Sept. 21. He remains in custody at Santa Clara County Jail, according to authorities. If convicted, Browning faces a maximum sentence of five years, eight months in state prison. Browning is accused of stealing a vehicle in Fresno the morning of Sept. 9 and driving to Gilroy, where he stole a cell phone from a developmentally disabled resident before making his way to the athletic fields at Gilroy High School on West 10th Street. Browning had used the stolen cell phone to call Gilroy police, and told dispatchers he wanted

to fight with officers. Gilroy Police Capt.

Late-night meeting closed the gap Teachers, 1

The teachers union’s final demand had been a 6 percent pay raise and 5 percent increase in district health care contributions, while the district’s last publicized offer was a 2 percent pay hike and no additional health care contributions. Gilroy teachers, the lowest paid among Santa Clara County school districts, have been working without a contract since the last three-year contract expired in June 2017. Because a tentative agreement was reached before the fact-finding report was finalized, the report will not be released, district officials said this week. The teachers had authorized a strike if no contract agreement was reached. In the weeks leading up to the fact-finding session, district staff has taken precautionary measures in case of a work stoppage. The district has been recruiting

In order to implement this agreement, the Gilroy Unified School District said it will need to cut $5 million from its budget over a three-year period. The District has already made nearly $1 million in budget reductions and will now identify an additional $4 million in potential reductions over the next two years, which will be discussed at upcoming board meetings. The Gilroy Teachers Association will submit the tentative agreement for a ratification vote of its membership within the next two weeks. The Board of Education is slated to ratify the new contract at an October Board Meeting. GTA President Jonathan Bass said earlier this week: “Both parties remain hopeful that a settlement can be reached. GTA is committed to negotiating a fair contract for its members.”

FIELD HOCKEY

Robert Eliason

Tops on field STEADY DOES IT Gilroy High’s Gina Barbaglia makes the pass in a 3-0 win over Christopher High last week. The Mustangs are a perennial Central Coast Section power, routinely advancing to the playoff semifinals and winning league championships. Gilroy has another formidable team yet again.

for scoring opportunities. “I have a lot of speed and if I have a breakaway, I can make a run to the goal or make a pass to set up a scoring chance,” said Yslava, who has made a verbal commitment to play at Newberry College, a Division II program in South Carolina. “The team is at our best when we pass a lot and if we’re communicating a lot.” Yslava started playing the sport as a freshman, and back then she never thought she would play in college. However, Yslava caught the attention of some college programs when she played in a national recruiting tournament in Florida in January. From there, Yslava visited a handful of colleges, ultimately falling in love with Newberry. Gilroy has a standout sophomore in midfielder/ forward Malia Mah, whose athleticism and drive make her a player to be reckoned with. “She scored a goal (against Christopher) in which she just cranked it,” Gemar said. “It was very powerful.” Kelly Nebesnick, a senior defender, gets the job done through sheer

Robert Eliason

The Gilroy High field hockey program has been one of the gold standards in the Central Coast Section for the better part of a decade. Part of the sustained excellence has to do with the standard set by longtime Mustangs coach Adam Gemar, who is in his 20th season at the helm. Gilroy entered the week with a 3-2 record— not counting four wins in the Leigh Tournament— and yet Gemar knows the team can take it to another level. “Except with the Saratoga game, I’m not happy with any of the wins because we’re not playing as a team,” he said. “I don’t care if we win, lose or draw, I just want us to play good hockey. It’s kind of a weird thing to say that we’re winning hockey games, but we’re not very good. Right now we don’t have the best team

chemistry yet, but hopefully that will change.” Don’t get Gemar wrong: He was still effusive in his praise for the players, but he knows the potential of the team will only be reached if the players share the ball and work together. The Mustangs have no shortage of talent, starting with Cami Rogers, last year’s Gabilan Division Most Valuable Player. The senior center midfielder affects the game in a variety of ways, as she is adept with or without the ball and possessing strong stick skills. Of course, no team can win a league title without the services of a strong goalie, and senior Savanah Castro fits that description for the Mustangs. “Savanah has come a long way,” Gemar said. “She’s doing all the right stuff, is positive and dedicated to the team.” Korynn Yslava, a senior midfielder, possesses speed, stick skills and transitions from offense to defense and vice versa with an efficiency few players can match. Yslava said the players are as motivated as ever to win league and make a deep CCS playoff run. Yslava passes the ball effectively, often setting up teammates

effort and a determination that is second to none. Nebesnick is also a standout soccer and wrestler; earlier this year, she advanced to the girls wrestling state championships. “Kelly doesn’t have the fancy moves, but she has tremendous vision and drive,” Gemar said. “Every time the ball is around her, it ends up on her stick.” Forward Audrey Larson is part of a talented fiveplayer junior class. Larson

knows how to put the ball in the goal, as she possesses a potent flick shot. Gemar said midfielder Bella Domingues “is probably the second smartest player on the team besides Kelly.” While not possessing eye-popping talent, Domingues is a heady player and is armed with a well-rounded skill set that makes her a valuable member of the team. Junior midfielder Olivia Bozzo has played

brilliantly at times, and fellow junior midfielder/forward Gina Barbaglia has produced some strong performances recently. “We’re loving what we’re seeing from these two players every game,” Gemar said. “Their attitude is great and their field hockey game is getting better.” Athena Florez, a junior defender, knows how to play calm even when there are moments in each match that scream chaos.

way through the circle, get open and her experience has been a big help.” Julia Davis, a senior center midfielder, is another four-year varsity player whose talents are evident. “She’s pretty much the heart of our team and plays all sides of the ball,” Hemeon said. “She is great at distributing the ball and sets up a lot of our scoring opportunities.” Samantha Rabusin, a junior goalie, already has posted a couple of shutouts and continues to blossom in her role as the team’s last line of defense. “She’s grown so much in the last year, and it’s fun to watch,” Hemeon said. Jordan Anaya, a sophomore midfielder, possesses “incredible speed” and has a work ethic to match. Anaya is another player who sets up scoring chances for her teammates. “She’s a workhorse,” Hemeon said. Vanessa Purnell, a senior who is in her first year on the

FRIDAY CROSSWORD

Robert Eliason

After losing just two seniors off last year’s team, expectations are soaring for Christopher High, which has finished in third place in league in each of the last four years. “We’re hoping to break through (for a top three finish) this season,” Cougars coach Dani Hemeon said. “I could tell the players were jelling really well from the start of summer conditioning. We still have a lot to improve on, but we’ve got a good core group of players to help guide the team this season.” Madison Moreno, a senior forward, said the ability to string together passes in rapid-fire fashion has been key to the team’s success. A four-year varsity player, Moreno is the team’s top goal scorer.

“We go from offense to defense with quick passing, and I’m usually the one who benefits from our team’s fast passing,” she said. “We don’t have individual players. This year our team is connecting more and our play is better than ever before.” Moreno’s uncanny ability to get in the right position at the right time allows her to be in the most advantageous place on the field to score. Moreno chalks that up to her experience, as she’s been playing the sport since the seventh grade. “A lot of playing the game is instinct,” she said. “I don’t have to think about where I have to run to get a pass because it’s been something I’ve been doing for six years. It’s all about repetition.” Hemeon said Moreno has added a lot to the squad. “Madison is a really crafty forward and is able to make space for herself,” Hemeon said. “She knows how to make her

Hemeon said. “She has really improved our forward and midfield lines because of her speed. She can run past defenders and has the stick work rate to get by them as well. Our No. 1 strength is passing and the ability to maintain possession is something

we focused a lot on in the off-season. We’re not a team that will dribble past you and beat you 1-on1. Our passing has really helped us out at the start of the season.” Moreno should take tremendous pride in how far she’s come.
