About 300 area residents frequented the three-day St. Catherine’s Funfest over the Sept. 15-17 weekend, enjoying carnival rides and games, live entertainment, and beverages and food. Families of St. Catherine Parish and School, 17400 Peak Ave. just outside downtown Morgan Hill, staffed six carnival booths and gave out prizes to patrons, including soccer jerseys and gold fish,

In court Sept. 14 to argue for a new trial for the man convicted of killing Sierra LaMar, defense attorneys unexpectedly filed a motion to disqualify the judge in the case due to a possible conflict of interest from decades ago. Al Lopez, attorney for convicted murderer Antolin Garcia Torres, 26, of Morgan Hill, submitted the motion Sept. 14 to disqualify Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Vanessa Zecher because she previously represented a sheriff ’s sergeant who played a prominent role in the investigation of Sierra’s disappearance. Garcia Torres’ sentencing hearing was scheduled for Sept. 15 at the Hall of Justice in San Jose, the same venue where Thursday’s proceedings were heard. However, due to the unexpected filing of the motion to remove Zecher from the case, the sentencing hearing was postponed, according to news reports. Thursday’s hearing was set to argue a separate motion, filed by Lopez Aug. 29, requesting a new trial for Garcia Torres. However, that argument was continued to a future date as well. Zecher presided over the four-month trial for Garcia Torres that ended early this summer. That trial ended with the jury finding Garcia Torres

Gavilan College announced its self-imposed sanctions stemming from accusations of recruiting and benefits violations against the school’s football team that resulted in 17 players dismissed in August. The football program will be on probation for three years and will be barred from postseason

play for two years. In addition, the athletics staff will undergo in-service training with Athletic Director Ron Hannon and will give the minutes and the agendas to the Northern California Football Conference for review. Finally, football coach Mike Dovenberg must give monthly reports on the team’s recruiting efforts. Two assistant coaches were also placed on leave pending further investigation into their involvement with the

rules violations. The college said if it is found the two coaches it will take further action up to and including termination will be taken. Gavilan didn’t name the two coaches, but a source familiar with the situation has identified the coaches as Austin Reville and Carlos Woods A source said one of the coaches has stepped down from his position. However, Gavilan said no resignation has been tendered by either of the coaches.

“The college has an opportunity now to ensure that all of our processes are reviewed, and all responsible personnel are provided the training and oversight to ensure that this never again happens at Gavilan College,” said Gavilan President Dr. Kathleen Rose in a press release. Rose went on to say that going forward, athletics recruiting will face much stronger scrutiny, particularly where out-of-state students are concerned. “From the first moment this situation came to

CHP officer dies in San Martin traffic accident MH RESIDENT REMEMBERED AS A ‘RESOURCE’ OF VEHICLE SAFETY KNOWLEDGE Michael Moore

James Branik, a Morgan Hill resident and a California Highway Patrol officer remembered as a “leader” by his commander, died Tuesday morning in a traffic accident in San Martin, according to authorities. Branik, 44, was off duty riding a Suzuki motorcycle at the time of the collision on Monterey Road Sept. 19. About 5:51 a.m., the driver of a Chevrolet pickup was traveling north in the left-turn lane on Monterey Road, just south of Chester Avenue. For an “unknown reason,” the pickup driver—a 47-year-old Gilroy man—turned left directly into the path of Branik’s motorcycle which was traveling south on Monterey Road, according to a press release from CHP Officer Chris Miceli. The motorcycle hit the right front side of the pickup, according to authorities. Branik suffered major injuries as a result of the collision and was pronounced dead at the scene when paramedics arrived. Branik started working for the CHP in 2005,

Special to the Times/CHP

according to his commanding officer, CHP Lt. Robb Kaczor. At the time of his death, Branik was assigned to the Gilroy Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Facility, which is located on U.S. 101 in San Martin. He began that assignment in 2010. Specifically, Branik’s role was a mobile road enforcement officer. This post included patrolling county roads and freeways in the area of the weigh station for vehicle safety violations, making traffic stops and issuing citations, according to Kaczor, the commanding officer at the San Martin facility. “He was a leader in commercial vehicle safety knowledge, including both state and federal laws,” Kaczor said. “He was a resource for me and his peers with commercial vehicle (enforcement) questions.” In his personal life, Branik was a motorcycle enthusiast. “He passed away on his personal motorcycle this morning,” Kaczor added. Branik grew up in San Jose and was “happily married,” Kaczor said. He is survived by his parents and wife. The Hollister-Gilroy area CHP issued the following statement on its Facebook page following Branik’s death:

James Branik “It is with great sadness that the Hollister-Gilroy Area office has to report that CHP Officer James Branik was involved in a motor vehicle collision this morning that took his life. Although James was assigned to the Gilroy Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Facility at the time of his death, many of us here at the Hollister-Gilroy Area office worked side by side with him in the field over the past several years or worked with him when he was assigned to the San Jose Area office. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family. He will be truly missed!” The cause of the Sept. 19 accident is under investigation, according to authorities. Alcohol or drugs do not appear to be a factor in the collision. Anyone with information about the accident can contact CHP Officer Sean Nichols at (408) 848-2324.

A HELPING HAND Harlem Globetrotter Anthony “Buckets” Blakes helps El Toro

Elementary School student Charley Carvalho during an interactive portion of the bully prevention event.

Globetrotter brings antibullying message to kids SCHOOL TO BE FEATURED ON KGO CHANNEL 7 Scott Forstner Reporter

Bringing an anti-bullying message along with him to El Toro Elementary School, Harlem Globetrotter Anthony “Buckets” Blakes entertained local students with his flashy basketball skills at a pair of Sept. 14 assemblies on campus. “This was an amazing event,” said El Toro principal Darren McDonald, whose school was selected by Channel 7 ABC/KGO staff to be a participant in their ABC Bully Prevention initiative. El Toro was one of three Bay Area schools chosen for the show. El Toro, along with the other schools, will be featured on an Oct. 15 broadcast on Channel 7 centered around Bully

Prevention Month. The newscast will begin at 6:30 p.m. A KGO camera crew and reporter went to campus and interviewed students. At the center of the “Action, Bravery, Compassion” (ABC) Bully Prevention is the veteran Harlem Globetrotter who visits more than 100 schools each year to spread the message. The Globetrotters designed the program in coordination with the National Campaign to Stop Violence (NCSV). “We try to create a safe learning environment in our school so it’s important to bring people in from the outside to give students resources and strategies to prevent things on our campus,” McDonald said. “He did an amazing job. Our teachers said it was the best assembly they ever had. The kids were just so attentive. It was

really a win-win for our community.” In full uniform, Blakes, who told students that he was bullied in high school, talked to the children about how to diffuse situations. He explained being brave does not mean confronting the bully, but rather to walk away and let an adult know what is going on. He also lectured students on having compassion for those who are being bullied. “When families send kids to our campus, we want them to know we have a safe learning environment and we take matters seriously to prevent bullying,” McDonald said. For the finale, Blakes called up a few kids to join him up front to teach them some special Globetrotter ball handling moves with “Sweet Georgia Brown” theme music playing.

Crews install new downtown traffic signal CITY STAFF: LIGHT WILL HELP CALM TRAFFIC Michael Moore Editor

traffic light will include pedestrian crossing signals. The traffic signal is one of a number of efforts enacted by the city in recent months to improve safety for pedestrians and bicyclists in the downtown. Other recent enhancements include overhead lighting at downtown crosswalks, bright orange hand-held flags that pedestrians can carry across key intersections to make themselves more visible, resurfacing and narrowing of Monterey Road vehicle lanes and the installation of raised, painted arrows in the surface of the right travel lane on both sides of Monterey as a bicycle lane.

Michael Moore

A contractor hired by the City of Morgan Hill began installing the posts, lights, wiring and other infrastructure for a new traffic signal at Monterey Road and Fourth Street this month. City staff do not yet have an estimated timeframe for when the signal will be operational, but they expect the signal to offer another “traffic calming” measure at a busy downtown intersection. “Presently, the signal poles are being installed and the wiring

is being pulled through the conduits. However, we are still waiting for the signal controller cabinet to arrive. Unfortunately, until we have a firm delivery date on the signal controller cabinet I cannot provide you with a date as to when the signal will be functional,” Morgan Hill Deputy Director of Engineering Scott Creer told the Times Sept. 18. In March, the city council approved a $306,000 contract with Mike Brown Electric to install the traffic light. On July 4, 2016, a vehicle struck two children who were crossing the Fourth Street crosswalk. The new

GUEST VIEW JORDAN ROSENFELD, SURJ SOUTH COUNTY

Morgan Hill shows up for racial justice

fter the November 2016 election, many of us in this community watched in horror as hate crimes against people of color and Jewish people began to rise. The reputable Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracked such events, rolled out a terrifying monthly toll that climbed and climbed. Rather than sit feeling helpless, a group of us felt moved to act as so many others in our community have already done. SURJ—Showing Up For Racial Justice—is a national group that organized after Barack Obama’s election drew intense, overt racism out of the woodwork, with the belief that it is up to white people to dismantle racism—specifically white supremacy. We started a local chapter, SURJ South County, to carry on SURJ National’s mission. We do not wish to be seen as “white saviors,” but rather to educate ourselves and others about the injustices against people of color, past and present, to bring awareness to the ways in which systems of oppression work against thriving communities and to hold ourselves accountable for change. We build upon the efforts of our local accountability partners, who have already been doing important, related work, like SIREN, CARAS, Indivisible South Valley, The Interfaith Council, The Learning and Loving Center, and more. We rally together with those targeted by systems of oppression. Not only do we hope to counter, with education and love, the agenda of hate that some feel emboldened to enact, we recognize that this country is founded on a history of white supremacy, violence and aggression against people of color, including the Native Americans whose lands were stolen and lives torn asunder. Since our group is not solely comprised of white folks, SURJ South County took liberties with SURJ National’s mission statement: we are a local group of individuals organizing

people for racial justice. SURJ promotes all people acting as part of a multiracial society for social justice with passion and accountability. Our group also acknowledges the intersectionality of the ways in which systems of oppression affect marginalized groups (based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, immigration status, ability/disability status, and more). SURJ provides a space to build relationships, skills and political analysis to act for change.

SURJ promotes all people acting as part of a multiracial society for social justice with passion and accountability So if you see us standing holding signs on the street corners in defense of DACA, the “Dreamer” act, or in solidarity with any person of color who has suffered as a result of this system, know that we are here to say, as Australian Aboriginal activist Lila Watson stated so eloquently, “If you have come here to help me, then you are wasting your time…But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together." SURJ South County will host a screening of the documentary “13th,” about how mass incarceration of people of color is a modern form of slavery, at the Morgan Hill Library, 660 W.

FROM THE WEB Re: ‘Council points to Turner for top City Hall post’ Personally I am delighted with and fully supportive of the City Council's decision to choose Ms. Turner from within a field of highly qualified applicants. I believe that the majority made a tough decision on the merits and in consideration of the skill set the City of Morgan Hill needs at this particular time. Suggesting that this decision was made based primarily on gender is, in fact, unfair to the four members who voted differently than Mr. Constantine did. We are excited to work with Ms. Turner, city staff and our elected representatives as we all do our part to make Morgan Hill an even better place to work, live and play.

I’m Lance Wolfsmith, Dave Wolfsmith’s son. Despite the local smear campaign against my father, my family and I couldn’t be prouder to call Morgan Hill home. I’m eternally grateful for amazing support my family has received from many in the community. I’ve been a Wolfpak member for 20 years, and I know every victim personally. What you’ve seen in the media is the perception of less than 2 percent of the athletes my father coached. I refuse to let this be his legacy. My father’s passion and conviction makes him polarizing. You don’t hire a coach if you're satisfied with your current situation, and when you hire my dad, your success becomes his priority. Through expert knowledge, passion and accountability, his clients achieved amazing results. The most profound memory with my dad was before my freshman year of high school when he set aside time for goal setting. Measurable goals were inappropriate because my ability was unknown, so my father simply asked me how good I wanted to be. Naturally, I wanted to be the best, so he made known the sacrifice and hard work that would be required. He assured me that together, we would accomplish my goals, and until those goals changed he would hold me accountable. Because of my father’s commitment to me, I was blessed with a lot of success during my high school and collegiate athletic career. What’s amazing is that commitment wasn’t exclusive to me. Over his 30-year career, nearly 1,000 clients received his commitment. He trained the full spectrum of athletes—from children and soccer moms, to collegiate athletes and elite military operators. Not once did my father advertise; every client was the result of a praising recommendation. I’ll never know the “why” behind these accusations. I have years of great memories with each victim and knew these people better than many members of my own family. Many trained years ago, a few came and went multiple times, but all continued to train at their own will after their assaults. The toughest for me to wrap my head around is that a group of victims trained with my father up until his arrest. My intent isn't to attack any victims, but to shed light on the other side to this story. I believe most people in our community have good intentions, but they've only been exposed to an extremely biased fraction of the story. Martin Luther King said, “Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.” Sexual assault accusations do not always require physical evidence for a conviction, which leaves no tolerance for ignorance. Before his plea, my father’s accusations were broadcasted to millions, his business was taken, and he spent nearly a year in jail. As a community, that should concern everyone. I was raised a strong supporter of the law, but my family learned the hard way that innocence until proven guilty is nothing but a fantasy reserved for those wealthy enough to fight. I urge you to critically exam what you read in the news and see on TV. Too often, you're only exposed to a fraction of the story and as good as your intentions may be, they can be misguided. The bond I have with my father and family has only grown stronger. Together we will pass this test and remain unshaken, because we know the complete story and will continue to stand by my father.

In that case, identified as the Pilipina trial, Leon testified that suspects in stabbing murders often wear gloves to protect their hands from cuts and evidence transfer—a sign of premeditation. In his Pilipina trial testimony, Leon cited sheriff ’s statistics showing that suspects wore gloves during “30 to 40 percent” of the stabbing crimes he reviewed since 2007, according to Lopez. However, research by defense attorneys found that suspects wore gloves in zero stabbing cases during the timeframe identified by Leon. “The Pilipina case was the sole case where a stabbing suspect wore gloves during the act, based on witness statements,” Lopez’ motion for a new trial states. The Aug. 29 motion also accuses Leon of destroying evidence in the Pilipina case, and he admitted doing so during a 2011 preliminary hearing in relation to the murder. “The prior false testimony of Sgt. Leon in the Pilipina case is evidence that would impeach his credibility regarding the missing envelope of hair in this (Sierra) case,” Lopez’ motion says. The defense attorney argues that because the conviction of Garcia Torres relied on “false evidence” and an unreliable investigator, he should be granted a new trial. Sierra was a sophomore at Sobrato High School when she disappeared March 16, 2012. Garcia Torres was arrested by sheriff ’s deputies in May 2012 on suspicion of kidnapping and killing the teen.

Conference officials pleased with sanctions Gavilan, 1

Controversy started with a phone call

The controversy stems from 17 out of state players who were

housed in a three-bedroom residence in Hollister. The players had arranged a deal with the homeowner to purchase items for the house such as beds and bedding for each of them to sleep on as well as pay for books and tuition for school. They said they would start paying rent in September once they had jobs and the moving expenses were taken care of. The players were also accused of receiving free food provided by the homeowner who would cook for the players in the evenings. The players insisted the food was not a perk, but rather just the owner offering the players a chance to eat meals she was already preparing. Kollenborn said despite the seemingly altruistic nature of the arrangement, it became a violation because it wasn’t readily offered to all Gavilan students. He said student-athletes cannot receive benefits that are not readily available to all students at the college. Kollenborn said if there wasn’t a widely available announcement open to all students, the athletes cannot be offered a deal to not pay rent. In effect, if a for-rent announcement was posted at Gavilan offering a chance to waive the first month’s rent for students and the house was open to rent by all students, the arrangement would have been fine. However, because the athletes and the homeowner came to the arrangement among themselves, it counted as an extra benefit and as such was a violation under the CCCAA guidelines. “This is not how any of us wanted to start the academic year,” said Dr. Rose, “but we will come out of it with stronger controls, better training, and the benefit of a robust campus dialog regarding what happened.” She reinforced her

Oregon, Chicago, Houston, Florida, Baltimore and Virginia, among other places. Gavilan said the cost to send the students home is estimated at $10,000. The college confirmed the source of the funds came from “undesignated funds” from the Gavilan College Educational Foundation. Dr. Rose said the Gavilan Board of Trustees did not need to give approval for the expenditure, but was made aware of the release of funds for the tickets and gas cards. Hannon said in a press release that he supports the sanctions. “This is appropriate. This is fair. It is within the guidelines." Hannon said. “It has been a very troubling occurrence for the Athletics program. We have a reputation, statewide, for strict adherence to the rules. This situation does not reflect who we are, nor does it meet our high standards as an intercollegiate athletic program. As a member institution in good standing within the (California Community College Athletics Association), we will continue to uphold the Constitution and bylaws.” Nor Cal Football Commissioner Gary Kollenborn, whose office signed off on the selfimposed sanctions, said Gavilan conducted its investigation and imposed sanctions were by the book and there was no need to further punish the college. He praised the college’s openness through the process. “Gavilan did an excellent job in terms of researching issues and following our constitution and bylaws and taking appropriate actions,” Kollenborn said.

FOOTBALL HOUSE This three-bedroom Hollister house is where the 17 Gavilan football players were staying that is the center of accusations that the players were receiving improper benefits. commitment to hold the college to the highest standard. “We have, and will continue to strive for these principles in our handling of this matter, and will continue to be transparent about our actions,” Rose said.

Gavilan looking into all sports

The college said it is now conducting an audit of the entire athletics department, beyond just looking into the football program Dr. Rose insisted this was not a reaction to the events that led to 17 out-of-state students getting dismissed from the football team. “This really is an opportunity to do an audit of all the athletic processes and procedures to make sure we’re in compliance

County supes invoke 45-day cannabis ban Santa Clara County’s Board of Supervisors approved a 45-day ban on commercial, non-medical cannabis-related businesses and commercial marijuana cultivation in unincorporated areas Sept. 13. The prohibition may be extended for up to two years, according to county staff. At Tuesday’s meeting, the supervisors passed a temporary moratorium (Ordinance No. NS-300.914) on commercial cannabis businesses, and, at the same time, amended the Patient and Caregiver Medical and Personal Marijuana Cultivation Ordinance (Ordinance No. NS-300.884) to permit limited indoor personal, non-medical cannabis cultivation, pursuant to the passage of Prop. 64 “A temporary moratorium will provide more time to help address health, safety and environmental concerns surrounding cannabis businesses,” said

District One Supervisor Mike Wasserman, who represents Morgan Hill. “But equally important is the need to increase funding for the Sheriff ’s Office to combat illegal grow operations, especially in the Santa Cruz Mountains.” The moratorium will return to the Board of Supervisors for discussion at its Oct. 17 meeting. The administration will report back on resources needed for illegal grow eradication, suggestions for enforcement of existing laws for illegal cultivation and the county’s opportunity to comment on the state’s emergency rule-making powers, according to county staff. “It’s clear that illegal cannabis cultivation is widespread in the rural hillsides of Santa Clara County,” said Supervisor Ken Yeager. “As the state finishes its regulations, we need to respect the voters’ wishes and develop a regulatory framework for this

industry because the status quo is just not acceptable.” The county started implementing cannabis regulations three years ago. In 2014, they banned marijuana dispensaries and commercial cultivation operations in the unincorporated areas. In 2015, they adopted the ordinance that regulates the cultivation of medical cannabis by patients and caregivers. With the passage of Proposition 64 (the Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act, AUMA) which changes the legal status of non-medical cannabis, the county is updating its Cultivation Ordinance that regulates medical and personal cultivation. Until the passage of AUMA, indoor and outdoor non-medical cannabis cultivation was prohibited. The county will continue to prohibit outdoor non-medical cannabis cultivation; however, indoor personal cultivation

is now permitted, with regulations, under the Medicinal and Personal Cannabis Cultivation Ordinance (Ordinance No. NS-300.913). Effective immediately, residents in the unincorporated area will be permitted to: • Grow cannabis indoors, for non-medical purposes: no more than six plants. The six plants must be grown within a single space no larger than 50 square feet in a single room or in a fullyenclosed and secure accessory structure. • Grow cannabis indoors, for medical purposes: a single layer of plants in a space no larger than 50 square feet, in a single room or in a fully-enclosed and secure accessory structure, subject to reasonable regulations. • Grow outdoors, for medical purposes: up to twelve plants, subject to reasonable regulations. In addition to plant and space limitations:

• Cultivators must comply with existing county building safety standards; • Total wattage of grow lights or other electrical equipment must not exceed 1,200 watts per circuit; and • Grow lights should be listed and labeled for residential use only. “The temporary cannabis moratorium gives the county time to monitor the effects of the new cannabis industry in California, as well as make our position clear to state authorities who may be receiving license applications from prospective businesses in the unincorporated areas,” said Sylvia Gallegos, Deputy County Executive. “Our message to current and prospective growers is that the cannabis cultivation in the unincorporated areas continues to be illegal.” The temporary moratorium is effective immediately.

LO LIMITS ERRORS VS OVERFELT TO PULL OFF 3-SET SWEEP Cheeto Barrera Sports Editor

Live Oak had to be a little scrappy against Overfelt but in the end found a way to keep the Royals at bay in a three-set sweep. The Acorns improved to 1-2 in West Valley Division play thanks to a 25-20, 25-20, 25-17 victory. Live Oak advanced thanks in large part to keeping pressure on Overfelt through the entire match, squelching the Royals’ runs. “It was good serving, got everyone in, kept the ball on our side and it was a good night,” said coach Pete Borja. Overfelt kept things close in all three sets, especially in the first where Live Oak needed a

run of 10-straight service points to help pull ahead 25-20. In the second set, Live Oak jumped out to a 9-5 lead when Overfelt pulled to within one at 13-12. But a quick 4-0 run put Live Oak back up by four. Eventually the Acorns turned that into a 10-4 scoring run that put the contest away. “We’re just trying to limit the unforced errors and get the ball back over the net and let them make mistakes,” Borja said. “When we have a kill we can put it away. When we’re out of system, we can keep the ball up and not make a mistake on out part.” Overfelt had a glimmer of hope with a 4-1 scoring run to pull within 24-20, but a serve into the net gave Live Oak the five-point victory. Set three didn’t start well for Live Oak as a pair of errors and a lift call put the Acorns in a quick 4-2 hole against Overfelt. The Royals looked

However, Live Oak quickly found its footing again. After going down 7-6, the Acorns went on a 4-0 run to take a 10-7 lead and managed to hang on. Borja said even when Live Oak got behind, he just tried to keep things simple with the girls and

had them focused on one thing at a time. “We told them to keep the unforced errors down and if we keep our serve, we’ll win this game,” Borja said. “They didn’t pass very well on their side, so if we keep the ball on our side and serve well, we’d win.” Overfelt capitalized on some strong attacking and serving to knot the set at 10, but Live Oak

went on a 12-1 scoring run and didn’t look back. Even though Overfelt closed out the contest on a 5-3 run, Live Oak still maintained its healthy lead and eventually pulled out the W with a serve into the net. Live Oak will next host Yerba Buena 6 p.m. Thursday. The Acorns will then travel to San Jose on Sept. 26 for a 6 p.m. game.

Sobrato set to kickoff WV play Cheeto Barrera Sports Editor

Sobrato didn’t play an easy nonleague schedule, but the Bulldogs came away with a big win ahead of the start of league play. Now coming out of the bye week, Sobrato is ready to tackle a new challenge that is the West Valley Division. “The kids stayed focused with that same energy after the game (last) Saturday,” said coach Tony Holmes. “We went Monday through Thursday in practice and took Friday off. They had a lot of energy on field and wanted to continue to go but we told them to enjoy their weekend.” Holmes said the break was a good time to get healthy and stoke the fires

to get the kids ready for the start of league. And two of the first three teams are going to prove just how good Sobrato is compared to the upper third of the division. In the first three weeks, the Bulldogs will likely face two of the teams that will contend for a league title with last years hardluck tri-champs Overfelt and this year’s Cinderella team in Andrew Hill. First up will be Hill who had not won a game since November, 2014. Now Hill has turned things around and currently sit at 3-0 heading into league play. “It’s been a rough go for them,” Holmes said. “But they have a good group young men coming up of underclassmen. They have a pretty simple system in

place and they have play makers.” Hill will not hide what it is going to do against Sobrato: It will make sure quarterback James Bankston will have the ball and he will make plays for them. And when he doesn’t have the ball, he is tasked with going to get the ball from the other team. “He definitely plays a major part of the success of that team,” Holmes said. “He plays quarterback, free safety, kickoff return, punt return; he plays multiple positions. He does play a major, major part on team.” Holmes said watching the Bankston on film has been a point of emphasis and he believes he has a game plan to deal with him.

“We’ve got to make sure we come up and make thorough tackles,” Holmes said. “We’ve got to get physical with him. It’s the only way I see to keep him honest.” At the same time, however, Holmes said he is not going to let Hill take his boys out of what they want to do in the game and that is run the ball. “I hope they don’t overlook or underestimate what we can do when we come to their house on Friday,” Holmes said. “I know definitely going to be running the ball a decent amount. There will be nothing fancy, no trick plays. We’ll let them figure it out at halftime. We’re going to play straight down hill football Friday night.”

Holmes said he believes his line has improved over the last few games and is expecting them to show what they have going against the Falcons. Holmes said he feels the team is ready for the big stage and wants to show that Sobrato is going to compete in the West Valley. “We’re excited about league play starting. We’re excited about taking on Andrew Hill. We’re excited they are 3-0. We know they have momentum and are getting a lot of publicity for what they’ve done because of last two years. But it’s a good opportunity for us to show our skill set too.” Sobrato will kickoff at Andrew Hill starting at 7 p.m. in San Jose.

Robert Eliason

Mackenzie Carpenter was the medalist against Lincoln to help Live Oak earn a 165-193 win on Sept. 12. The Acorns went on to win by the same score on Sept. 14 to improve to 3-1 overall. Carpenter shot a 37 on Sept. 12 with Cameron O’Connell and Haley Bonfante shooting 41s. Kylie Guertin followed with a 46 and Casey Cowern shot a 49 to round things out. In the next match, Guertin had Live Oak’s low round, shooting 40, followed by Bonfante with a 41. Carpenter, O’Connell and Kaitlyn Calvin all shot rounds of 42.

Acorns refocused ahead of league that ultimately decided the Santa Teresa Division title. Now Westmont— after winning the division back-to-back years— has moved up to the Mt. Hamilton Division. The Warriors are coming off an 11-2 season a year ago and are off to a fast start winning their first three games so far this season. They have outscored opponents 104-34 and are averaging just under 35 points per game. However, Westmont hasn’t played a rigourous schedule. The Warriors’ opponents are a combined 2-8 overall with two of them being winless. Even so, Gemo said he is not taking Westmont, nor his former coach Mark Kaanapu lightly by any means. “We expect them to be ready to play coming off a

great season a year ago,” Gemo said. “They’re a good football team with a bunch of guys who know how to win.” The biggest threat for Westmont will come from its quarterback with a solid supporting cast around him. “They’ve got a big, tall quarterback and a couple of lanky receivers who came make some good plays right now. We expect them to throw the ball around,” Gemo said. “(On top of that) they have a runningback who can scoot a little bit.” Defensively, Gemo said Westmont likes to load up the box and put pressure on quarterbacks. “They like to play man coverage and they’ve got guys they feel can run with anybody,” Gemo said. Kickoff for Friday’s game is slated for 7 p.m. in Campbell.

A week off might have been what Live Oak needed following two straight losses to Christopher and Gilroy. “It was a good time for us,” said coach Mike Gemo. “We got a little bit healthy and got some rest in us and a lot of learning. The kids got hopefully got refocused.” Gemo said they lightened things up a little bit in practice and just allowed the players to take a breath after a heartbreaking double-overtime loss to Christopher and a blowout loss to Gilroy right before the break. But now Live Oak is getting the chance to get back at it on Friday when the Acorns take on a familiar foe they haven’t seen for a couple of years. The Acorns will travel to Westmont for the first time since 2014 when they knocked off the Warriors 6-0 in a game

Acorns hang on Both goalies played very strong games in the cage, but the Live Oak boys water polo team outscored Gilroy 7-6. After GHS jumped up 2-0, the teams took to a back and forth struggle. Live Oak took a 4-2 lead early but The Mustangs rattled off three straight goals to take a 5-4 lead in the third. Live Oak started the fourth quarter with a goal to tie the match at five. With just over a minute to go, Live Oak took a 6-5 lead but Gilroy scored on an inside drive to once again tie the game. After a great defensive stand, the Mustangs called timeout with one shot clock cycle left in the game. But after losing the ball at the 2-meter spot, Live Oak converted a goal with just six seconds left to play to take a 7-6 lead and denied Gilroy a last-second chance.

Prep roundup: Oakwood shines; Sobrato wins thriller The seven schools in the Coastal Division of the Mission Trail Athletic League (MTAL) had their first Center Cross Country Meet at York School in Monterey on Sept. 14. Oakwood school had a strong showing, fielding boys varsity, girls varsity and boys junior varsity teams.

Returning runner Jeb Goldman (junior) finished first for the Oakwood Boys Varsity team in a new Oakwood School record time for the York Course. Freshman Kate Marcotullio finished as the first overall runner in the girls varsity race. Her time set a new school record for the course.

Gavilan football battles late, but falls just short at LM With less than a minute left to play, Gavilan football had the ball and crossed midfield with enough time to score a touchdown to steal its first win of the season against Los Medanos But quarterback Erik Ornduff was intercepted on a deep ball to the Los Medanos 6 and the Rams fell 29-25 to drop to 0-3 on the season. Ornduff was 22 of 38 for 224 yards and three touchdowns and PJ Reichert had eight catches for 79 yards and a TD in the loss. Gavilan took a 17-15 lead at the half thanks

to scoring 10 points in the final 5 minutes of the half, including Billy Loera kicking a 23-yard field goal as time expired. The Mustangs got on the board first with a touchdown less than 3 minutes into the game. But Gavilan responded quickly as Ornduff hit Reichert just 40 seconds later on a 25-yard touchdown pass. The Mustangs responded in the second quarter to take a 15-7 lead before Gavilan scored on a Riley Owen 1-yard carry to cap a 69-yard drive. That’s where the game stood until the fourth
