Forty years ago, Lupe Arellano and Laura GonzalezEscoto founded “La Isla Pacifica” (translated to “The Peaceful Island”), a confidential shelter in south Santa Clara County for victims of domestic violence. Today, the location of La Isla Pacifica—which has been under the umbrella of Community Solutions since 1996—remains a secret to protect the victims and their

‘THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE’ FINDS HER WAY IN SVCT’S LATEST PRODUCTION By Debra Eskinazi Magazine and Features Editor

When a small-town girl, determined to make a new life for herself, comes to the Big Apple, she discovers life is more complicated than she first thought. South Valley Civic Theatre’s

portrayal of Thoroughly Modern Millie starring Live Oak High School senior Brianna Pember as “Millie Dillmount” offers a fun, uplifting look at a young, modern woman coming of age. “It’s a complicated story about love, coming into your own, and figuring out what you want out of life,” says producer Marianne Snook. “It’s like you have a list, but your list changes when you open your eyes and see all of the other possibilities.” Like many of the playhouses’ performances, this musical includes many seasoned actors,

orchestral accompaniment and a top-notch set design, which Snook says are on par with Broadway. “The whole setting will draw you into the story,” Snook says of Andrew Cummings high-quality set designs. In the end, Snook says when people think they are looking back upon “simpler times,” people are really dealing with the same issues we are now: “Where does work fit in? Where does money fit into your life? Who do you know? What’s truly important? If I just find a rich man, my life is going to be complete.”

But, it’s a lot more than that, Snook says. “It’s about who makes you happy. It’s friends and family that are there to support you. And, all of those things that were important in the ’20s are still important now.” South Valley Civic Theatre presents ‘Thoroughly Modern Millie.’ Performances run Feb. 23-March 17 at Morgan Hill Community Playhouse, 17090 Monterey Road, Morgan Hill.

Downtown update: Building continues FOUR NEWEST RESTAURANTS COULD OPEN IN MAY Bryce Stoepfel Reporter

Within the next couple of months, residents and visitors can expect to see some of downtown Morgan Hill’s flagship, highprofile construction projects transform into more dining, nightlife,

shopping and lodging choices. By March, assuming the current dry weather maintains, developers are expected to complete excavation and lay concrete foundations for the Granada Hotel. “Frank Léal has done most of the offsite work, including sewer and water line work,” said Morgan Hill Assistant City Manager Leslie Little. “There will be more to be done, such as sidewalk

replacement and landscaping, but the big stuff that would be a disruption regarding infrastructure is finished.” The Morgan Hill City Council agreed to sell the 1.09 acres of land at 17490 Monterey Road— formerly the site of the Downtown Mall—to Frank Léal, of Léal Vineyards on Sept. 2, 2015 for about $1.1 million. Following the demolition of the Downtown Mall building, Léal entered into a

contract with KTGY, an architecture firm out of Oakland, to construct the 64,940 square foot, fourstory, 60-room multi-use luxury hotel. The project will be built in accordance with Morgan Hill General Plan, which designates 68 parcels of land in the downtown to encourage a mix of residential and commercial uses. The Granada Hotel will feature a restaurant, bar, retail space, banquet

hall, along with the hotel’s lobby, guest rooms, spa and other hotel amenities. The Granada Hotel, which will stand next to the Granada Theater, another development project spearheaded by Léal, carries on the drive to promote downtown Morgan Hill as a destination for tourists and visitors in South County. The city is looking forward to more tax revenue from the ➝ Granada, 12

Morgan Hill City Councilman Larry Carr pleaded not guilty to domestic battery Feb.16 at the South County Courthouse. Superior Court Judge Jacqueline Duong issued Carr, 49, a one-year “peaceful contact order” that regulates the contact he can have with the alleged victim in the misdemeanor case. Carr is charged with domestic battery in relation to a Nov. 25, 2017 incident involving his girlfriend of 11 years, with whom he shared a home in downtown Morgan Hill at the time. Morgan Hill Police responded to the couple’s residence that evening, and arrested Carr after taking statements from him and his girlfriend. The woman had told police, during a lengthy verbal argument, that Carr “ripped the glasses from her face and threw them to the ground, causing them to break,” and pulled her hair in

FORMER 49ER ACCUSED OF RAPING WOMAN AT MORGAN HILL HOME

Boneless Prime Grade Skinless New York Chicken Breast Steak

Coleman Hampshire Pork Chops

NEXT HEARING SCHEDULED FOR MARCH 19

The Superior Court judge in Dana Stubblefield’s Morgan Hill rape case set the former San Francisco 49er’s bail at $500,000, after his attorneys argued his “very active” involvement in the community and modest financial means justified the release amount. Stubblefield, 47, has been held at Santa Clara County Jail since the conclusion of a preliminary hearing Jan. 19, when prosecutors added a gun enhancement to five felony charges he faces in connection with the alleged rape of a woman at his Morgan Hill home in April 2015. The gun enhancement could result in a prison sentence of 15 years to life if Stubblefield is convicted. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges. Santa Clara County Deputy District Attorney Tim McInerny had asked the court to set Stubblefield’s bail at $1 million. Allen Sawyer, attorney for Stubblefield, asked Judge Jacqueline Duong to set bail at $500,000, adding that Stubblefield is willing to wear a GPS monitor, submit to random searches of his property and obey “any stayaway order” until the conclusion of the court proceedings. After hearing these arguments, Duong agreed to set bail at $500,000 and impose the GPS and search conditions. She also is prohibiting Stubblefield from possessing any weapons.

NO INJURIES Fire and emergency crews respond after a single-engine Piper aircraft made an emergency

landing on the median of US 101 just south of Tennant Avenue in Morgan Hill Feb. 18.

FAA probes plane landing on US101 NO INJURIES OR DAMAGE REPORTED Michael Moore Editor

The pilot of a single-engine aircraft whose engine began to fail above San Jose made a “split second” decision to make an emergency landing on the median of US 101 in Morgan Hill Sunday, according to authorities. That decision by Aptos resident Wayne Wright, 62, resulted in a safe

landing for the pilot and motorists on the ground. Wright departed from Davis airfield about 10:35am Feb. 18 in a Piper PA46-310P airplane. He was on his way to the Watsonville airport when, at about 11:10am, Wright reported his aircraft lost engine power for an unknown reason, according to a press release from the California Highway Patrol. The plane was at about 6,500 feet altitude and about eight miles north of the San Martin

airport when the engine began to fail. Wright, the only occupant of the aircraft, activated his GPS in an effort to locate the nearest airport. He contacted San Jose Air Traffic Control on the radio, and informed them of his situation, according to the CHP. The pilot advised the air authorities that his view of the ground was obstructed by heavy cloud patches. San Jose Air Traffic Control guided Wright to the San Martin airport to make an emergency

landing, according to authorities. Wright continued to attempt to restart his engine while contacting air traffic control, but was unsuccessful. His airplane was gliding with no power just below the clouds when he saw US 101 below him, according to the press release. The pilot thought he might not make it to San Martin, and advised authorities that he was going to attempt an emergency landing on the freeway. As he descended the plane, Wright noticed southbound

vehicle traffic on US 101 stopping in a cascading effect toward him, according to CHP. That’s when he decided at the last second to land his aircraft in the center median divider on US 101, just south of Tennant Avenue. The plane landed about 11:17am with a wing extended into the left lane of northbound US 101, facing in a southbound direction, according to CHP. No injuries or collisions resulted from the incident, according to authorities. The plane was towed to

the San Martin airport, where it will be inspected. The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the incident, according to FAA spokesman Ian Gregor. Photos of the odd sight of an aircraft in the middle of US 101, and later being towed off the freeway onto Tennant Avenue in south Morgan Hill, spread throughout the internet in the hours after the landing. The registered owner of the aircraft is G&M Leasing LLC, based in Watsonville.

OPINION GUEST VIEW

GOP immigration plan hurts farmers

California has key role in agriculture issues

onny Perdue is a veterinarian, and a former governor of Georgia. He also is the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture. He spent one day in the nation’s biggest agricultural state last week—California—presumably to show that the Trump Administration cares about and understands our state’s critical role in the U.S farm economy. California has taken it on the chin in the past 15 months, as our tech industry, environmental standards, cannabis industry, immigrant families, alternative energy industry, gun control and national parks— just to name a few—have been in the new Administration’s crosshairs. Perdue tried to put on a friendly face last week, as he rolled out his plans for a new Farm Bill. As if the summer of 2018 didn’t offer enough fodder for political torment, it also is the time when the five-year Farm Bill—a mix of farm subsidies, incentives, price protections, environmental issues, even food stamps—comes up for renewal. Eight days after unveiling his plans for a new Farm Bill in Washington, Perdue headed to California to help sell the plan to farmers in the nation’s biggest agricultural state. His visit was to have included stops at farms in both Hollister and Gilroy, but the second day was canceled as Perdue was called back to the White House for a special Cabinet meeting on immigration. California’s farm leaders have expressed support for some aspects of the new Farm Bill, but proposed immigration policies are a big sticking point with many farmers and farm worker organizations California Farm Bureau President Jamie Johansson has said the Administration’s proposed “Guestworker Act” contains a number of features that would harm the current immigrant employees on whom California farms and ranches depend.

Agriculture is big business in San Benito and southern Santa Clara counties, where farm and ag producers are among the biggest employers, and biggest taxpayers. The pending Farm Bill renewal and revision looms in the context of the national immigration debate. In California, the California Farm Bureau, whose leaders joined part of the Perdue tour, are worried about Trump Administration plans for drastically changing immigration rules at the expense of the state’s farms and farm workers. The Farm Bureau’s Johansson said, “There’s a longstanding need to create a workable temporary-visa program for agriculture that provides greater stability and opportunities for agricultural employees and their families.” He said the Trump plan “would cause too much disruption for our employees and our communities.” A Farm Bureau survey last year said 55 percent of farmers had employee shortages. Of farmers who hire employees on a seasonal basis, 69 percent reported shortages, especially among farmers whose crops require the most intensive hand labor, such as fruits and grapes—key crops in our region. The survey respondents attributed some of this shortage to the “fear and anxiety’ among employees over changes in immigration laws and enforcement policies. Uncertainty and fear don’t combine to create a good climate for employers or employees. While the Trump administration may be in denial about climate change, it is moving forward to create its own manmade changes in the climate for agricultural producers, especially in California. That’s a big cloud on the horizon for this growing season and for this political season. Secretary Perdue should come back to California for more visits, and spend more time listening.

As the U.S. House of Representatives continues discussion on proposed immigration legislation, the California Farm Bureau Federation cannot support a part of the bill that addresses agricultural employees. Now before Congress, H.R. 4760, the Securing America’s Future Act, would fund a border wall and address internal immigration enforcement and the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. It also includes an Agricultural Guestworker Act, which would create a new agricultural visa program. The Guestworker Act, in its current form, contains a number of features that would harm the current immigrant employees on whom California farms and ranches depend. In addition, it would mandate use of the E-Verify electronic workplace-eligibility system, which could affect a large proportion of current agricultural employees. As now written, the Agricultural Guestworker Act just wouldn’t work for California farms and ranches. There’s a longstanding need to create a workable temporary-visa program for agriculture that provides greater stability and opportunities for agricultural employees and their families. The act would cause too much disruption for our employees and our communities. The Farm Bureau and other organizations have offered a number of recommendations for creating a more practical and flexible program to allow people from other countries to enter the U.S. to work on farms and ranches. We know the American Farm Bureau and other national agricultural organizations have decided to support the AG Act, and they have every right to do so. But as the largest agricultural organization in the largest agricultural state, we must advocate for a solution that works for our members and their employees.” We certainly respect the need to maintain and enhance border security, and we think that can be done while providing farmers, ranchers and their employees with a better immigration system. Our California congressional representatives need to work for a system that allows agricultural employees to earn legal status without being required to leave their homes and families, and which features visas that provide sufficient flexibility to allow the new program to function like the current labor market. We also recommend creation of a program to accommodate future agricultural employees from other countries. For California farmers and ranchers, the combination of the AG Act and E-Verify would actually worsen chronic agricultural employee shortages. We need to press for a better solution. California Farm Bureau President Jamie Johansson

Opening planned for new eateries made in the region. Along with the Granada Theater, Léal's other businesses include Willow Heights Mansion in Morgan Hill, Hacienda de Léal hotel in San Juan Bautista, The Grove farm-to-table restaurant in Hollister and Sycamore Creek and Léal Vineyards in Hollister and Morgan Hill. Leal purchased the Granada Theater from the city for about $294,000 in 2015. He gutted the interior of the building and remodeled it as a venue for live entertainment, corporate events and evening dinner theater shows. The Morgan Hill Redevelopment Agency purchased both the theater and Downtown Mall properties with bond proceeds in 2009, with the intent to revitalize them as mixed-use projects similar to what Leal has in

the works. The RDA, which was shut down by the state in 2011, paid about $10.3 million for the two properties.

SV Clean Energy repays $2.7M loan NEW ENERGY AGENCY IS DEBT-FREE IN LESS THAN ONE YEAR OF OPERATION Staff report

File Photo

The cities of Gilroy and Morgan Hill were among 11 Santa Clara County cities, which, along with the county government, last month were repaid in full the startup loans from Silicon Valley Clean Energy, the public non-profit “community choice” energy agency that now provides most electricity to most county residents. As part of an agreement that formed Silicon Valley Clean Energy in 2016, the energy agency—which provides cleaner power at competitive costs—the county’s municipalities loaned $2.7 million to provide the agency with initial working capital. The loan agreement gave the agency four years from the effective date of the agreement, or March 2020, to pay back the loan. However, all funds were returned in January 2018, more than two years ahead of schedule, and within the agency’s first year of operation. The cities of Gilroy and Morgan Hill each received checks for $100,000, their share of the startup loan. The agency also secured an $18 million revolving line of credit and a $2 million non-revolving line of credit, both of which were retired in late 2017. The

loans allowed Silicon Valley Clean Energy to get up and running and pay for startup costs, which included power procurement, staffing, marketing and outreach, the agency reported this week. “Returning our startup loans well ahead of schedule and being debt-free in less than a year shows that Community Choice Energy is a viable model,” says Rob Rennie, Silicon Valley Energy Board Chair. “When forming this agency, we were focused on the significant greenhouse gas reductions having carbon-free electricity would provide, but our communities will gain additional benefits with [our agency] reinvesting net revenues in our local economy and providing customer programs.” Community choice energy agencies in California are funded by ratepayers through electricity sales, and do not rely on taxpayer funds. The agency is locally governed by a board of directors comprised of one elected official from each member community. Since launching service in April 2017, SVCE now serves more than 242,000 commercial and residential electricity customers in 11 Santa Clara County towns and cities, and unincorporated county communities with carbonfree power—97 per cent of all customers in the service area. Silicon Valley electric generation rates are 1 percent less than PG&E’s equivalent rate, providing

CLEANER POWER Agency provides cleaner, cheaper alternative for 97 percent of county consumers. an estimated $3.4 million dollars of on-bill savings to customers, according to the agency. Silicon Valley Clean Energy customers still get billed by PG&E and pay PG&E for electricity transmission and delivery. It is now just a new line item

of the bill that replaces PG&E electric generation charges. Customers pay SVCE on a line item on the PG&E bill called “Silicon Valley Clean Energy Electric Generation Charges.” Customers with questions about how to understand SVCE generation charges on

their bill can visit svcleanenergy.org/your-bill or call 1-844-474-7823 (SVCE). Silicon Vallley Clean Energy’s GreenStart electric generation service offers 50 percent renewable energy that is 100 percent carbon free, Tobin continued. For a higher

rate, residential and commercial customers can choose to upgrade to SVCE’s GreenPrime program, to receive 100 percent renewable power. In comparison, PG&E’s existing service offers 60 percent carbon-free, 30 percent renewable energy.

Food Bank for distribution to those in need. Students used critical thinking skills to calculate how many cans it would take to go around the 1/8-mile track, and then demonstrated personal and social responsibility with their donations, according to CSMH staff.

Students can access online library resources MORGAN HILL LIBRARY AMONG THOSE OFFERING STUDENTFOCUSED PORTAL Staff report

The Santa Clara County Library District has launched a new initiative that offers elementary and middle school students access to a wealth of online

resources at home, school or anywhere with an internet connection. Through the Student Library eAccount Program, students receive a card-free Library eAccount, with a student-focused portal that allows them to access all of the SCCLD system’s online resources. SCCLD launched its Student Library eAccount Program this fall with Saratoga Union School District. To date, almost 9,000 students have received digital access, with 8,000

more from Milpitas Unified School District joining in March. “We’re very excited about this program. Children are the future and we want to build curiosity to discover new passions, skills and knowledge,” County Librarian Nancy Howe said. “The Student Library eAccount allows us to provide free and equal access to resources, services and learning tools to help our students be successful.” Participating students can utilize all SCCLD’s

online resources and its many productivity tools, which can help them ace their studies, according to the announcement. One popular program available is BrainFuse, which offers free, real-time online tutoring in a variety of subjects. In addition to the many research and reference materials available through the library, there are also more than 100,000 eBooks, 22,000 Audiobooks, countless songs and thousands of

streaming videos. Since all content is online, there are no fines, late fees, due dates to remember or trips to the library involved, according to the SCCLD. Traditionally, just 15 to 20 percent of elementary and middle school students have a public library account. Whether due to issues with transportation to the library, limitations on time, or some other reason, the large majority of students have been missing out on the many resources available

MOMENT OF REFLECTION Community members gather for a special candlelight vigil held Feb. 15 at the Morgan Hill Downtown Amphitheater to honor

the survivors and those lost to domestic violence while also celebrating the 40th anniversary of South County’s first confidential shelter, La Isla Pacifica.

Shelter has served victims 40 years Domestic Violence, P1 “One of our goals was to put ourselves out of business, for us not to exist,” explained Arellano, who was the first manager of La Isla Pacifica, a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week safe haven. “We wanted to make ourselves obsolete because society would become advanced to the point where there was no longer domestic violence.” Much to the chagrin of the two women’s rights pioneers, domestic violence remains prevalent. News headlines of sexual assault, misconduct and domestic violence among some of the most powerful figures in the movie industry, government and sports—as well as the #metoo movement on social media sites such as Twitter—have made the issue more front and center now than in the past. Arellano explained when a woman called the police to say they were in danger 40 years ago, an officer would come to the scene and ask if everything was fine. Usually, Arellano continued, the abuser would downplay the violence and let the officer know they worked things out while the victim would be cowering in the corner afraid to speak up. “(Domestic violence) was the only crime where it was left up to the victim to arrest the perpetrator,” said Arellano, who helped develop South County’s first “underground railroad” for women looking to escape domestic violence. In 1978, the shelter provided services for more than 180 women and children. La Isla Pacifica provided services such as counseling, medical attention, legal assistance, home relocation,

transportation and advocacy. “There was no crisis line in South County at that time,” Gonzalez-Escoto recalled. “We began servicing Santa Clara County and San Benito County—mostly Morgan Hill, Gilroy, San Martin and Hollister.”

Helping victims

Since then, countless domestic violence victims have passed through the doors of La Isla Pacifica. At first, the shelter could accommodate up to 30 people at a time (some would bring multiple children with them in hiding). If there was not a bed available, they would look elsewhere. “The beauty of it all was just life at La Isla. There was so much sharing and caring,” said Arellano, a veteran of the U.S. Women’s Army Corps. “We would have 21 clients at a time, including their children. We would pick them up at the police department or another safe place. Then, we would get them the services they needed. Some we would put on a Greyhound to go somewhere.” Gonzalez-Escoto added: “We were able to get some women into permanent housing....And we would provide them with clothing, food and furniture. We had a cadre of volunteers helping to lift us up.” The founders took to every source they could think of for funding and began networking with other similar shelters in Northern California to combine resources and not overlap services. In 1993, a more permanent funding source came as the state passed the Presley bill that reserved a portion of marriage license fees to support domestic violence.

“We spoke in front of the state assembly. We went to the governor…. We went to anyone who had influence at that time,” Gonzalez-Escoto said. Along with the funding, law enforcement began to “criminalize domestic violence” and Gilroy became one of the first cities in Santa Clara County to give out general orders on how to handle a domestic violence call. Arellano said that she and other members would go to the police departments in Gilroy and Morgan Hill, as well as the sheriff’s office, during shift changes and train the officers on what to look for when on a call. That also allowed La Isla Pacifica to apply for grants from law enforcement agency grants, which they received for the first time in 1976 and five subsequent years. Then in 1996, La Isla Pacifica merged with two other organizations—South County Alternatives and Bridge—to form Community Solutions, which has offices today in Gilroy, Morgan Hill, Hollister and south San Jose. “That’s when the new name Community Solutions was born,” said Community Solutions Division Director Perla Flores, who explained that the new group is divided into divisions by services provided. In Morgan Hill, they focus on solutions to violence, including domestic violence, sexual assault and human trafficking. The La Isla Pacifica shelter is operational and run by Community Solutions. “The need is still there and awareness is key,” said Flores, who detailed the Community Solutions model of Protection, Prosecution, Prevention

and Partnership. “I still think we have a long way to go.... Domestic violence continues to affect so many.” Flores added that domestic violence happens whenever one person exerts power and control over another, and it does not have to be physical.

Growing awareness

The awareness and support has grown exponentially, with 94 shelters across the state. Flores ran off the different organizations and consortiums such as the California Partnership to end Domestic Violence (which pushes for policy and advocacy along with funding) as well as the Domestic Violence Advocacy Consortium. Along with Community Solutions, other domestic violence providers involved are Asian American Community Services, Next Door Solution to Domestic Violence, Maitri and the YWCA. Flores noted that the California Office of Emergency Services provides the biggest chunk of funding for domestic violence. Bringing more help and awareness, Community Solutions hosts a weekly South County Family Justice Center, where visitors can seek domestic violence and victim-witness advocacy as well as free, onsite advice from an immigration and family law attorney; and speak with a domestic violence police detective or the supervising district attorney. On Feb. 15, dozens of residents joined Community Solutions in a candlelight vigil held at the Morgan Hill Downtown Amphitheater to honor survivors and those lost to domestic violence.

Acorns out to redeem themselves in playoffs OLIVIA WILLIAMS A SENIOR CAPTAIN WHO HAS BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN TEAM’S SUCCESS emanuel lee Sports Editor

HE’S NO. 1 Javier Torres, a Live Oak High junior, gets his arm raised in victory after winning the 108-pound division in the Blossom Valley League Championships last Saturday. Torres earned the No. 3 seed in the CCS Championships. BVAL WRESTLING TOURNAMENT

A champion at last LIVE OAK JUNIOR JAVIER TORRES BREAKS THROUGH FOR FIRST TITLE emanuel lee Sports Editor

A year ago, Javier Torres needed to be humbled. “I’m not taking anything for granted this year,” said Torres, a Live Oak High junior. “I screwed up last year with being too cocky, but this year is mine.” Torres had a monumental breakthrough when he won the 108–pound division in the Blossom Valley League Wrestling Championships last Saturday at Sobrato High. In the championship match, Torres recorded a pin with 51 seconds remaining to seal his first tournament victory of his career. “It means the world to me,” said Torres, who finished third in the league tournament and sixth in the CCS Championships last season. “It’s emotional. This was the goal, and now the next one is for the CCS championship.” The two-day section tournament starts on Friday at Independence High. Torres will be joined by teammate Andres Rocha, who took sixth place in the 120-pound division. As expected, Sobrato High’s Harrison Zhang reached the finals in the 138-pound division; however, he decided to forfeit the match upon talking things over with Bulldogs coach Robert Rael, who said even if Zhang had beaten Leigh’s Grant Kaiser in the title match, he would not have been seeded over him for CCS. He came to that conclusion knowing how seeding works and the fact that Kaiser had beaten Zhang earlier in the season. Rael said Zhang had been battling the flu all week, and wanted his standout wrestler to get added rest. Zhang earned the No. 6 seed in the CCS Championships, and he’ll be joined by teammates Riley Hedden (197) and Ivan Dominguez, who took third at 222 pounds. Torres earned the No. 3 seed in the CCS Championships behind No. 1 Jayden

Josh Miller

Given the program’s lack of success in the playoffs the last several years, everyone on the team is motivated for a breakthrough. Vasquez and one of the three senior captains, Olivia Williams, agreed the difference in this year’s squad is the superior talent and chemistry. “More than anything, the team chemistry is better,” Vasquez said. “The girls truly get along, and that’s especially important in the girls game. They have to like each other and enjoy playing with each other in order to do well on the field. … We’ve got some good girls coming in, and it’s a different generation. You combine the youth of the team with the strong senior leadership, and that goes a long way toward achieving success.” Said Williams: “When I was a freshman and even as a sophomore, the chemistry was not there. But this year we’ve got such a great group of girls, and I think it was important the seniors welcomed the freshmen to the team because we have so many of them. Honestly, the team dynamic is so much better compared to my freshman year. In my freshman year, if you made a mistake, everyone would get mad at you and hold a grudge. But this year if you make a mistake, we just forget about it and move on. That attitude has helped everyone.” Vasquez said he’s never had a freshmen class as impressive as this year’s group. Led by striker and Division I prospect Karlie Lema—who racked up an impressive 43 goals in 19 games—the Acorns are a threat to score whenever the ball is on her feet. “I don’t care what level is it, no one can stop her,” Vasquez said. “Everyone looks at her speed, but technically she’s great and she ➝ Live Oak, page 20

Longtime Live Oak High girls soccer coach Tony Vasquez can’t remember the last time his team has won a Central Coast Section playoff game. “It’s had to be at least five or six years ago,” he said. “It’s been a struggle.” It would’ve been a huge upset if the top-seed Acorns didn’t break through Wednesday when they played No. 16 seed Woodside Priory in the opening round of the Division II playoffs (this edition went to press before the start of the match). Live Oak completed the regular-season with an impressive 16-1-2 record, including a 13-0-1 mark to easily win the Blossom Valley League’s Santa Teresa Division.

GRUDGE MATCH Sobrato High senior Ivan Dominguez took third place in the 222-pound division of the Blossom

Valley League Wrestling Championships. Dominguez, who has only been wrestling for two years, qualified for CCS.

Gomez of Gilroy and No. 2 Zachary Thompson of Palma. Torres hasn’t faced Gomez but has wrestled Thompson, dropping a decisive 11-2 decision in the Overfelt Classic. Despite the loss, Torres is confident things will be different should the two meet again. “I’m not going to let it happen again,” he said. “I’m going to take him out and take out the No. 1 seed as well.” In the BVAL Championships, Torres faced a tough opponent and methodically scored points throughout, eventually building up a 12-4 lead before recording a pin after unleashing a single leg takedown to a double and finally a cradle. Torres has taken his level up a notch from last season, putting in long training hours and focusing his mind. “This year the difference is my desire,” Torres said. “I’ve never been hungrier in my career. I want it and I have to get it.” Torres’ improved technical

skills show during matches, as he maneuvers around the mat and sizes up his opponent. “Last year I would stick to one move and not be 100 percent sure where or what I was going to do next,” he said. “This year I can use all my combos and be comfortable knowing what to do.” Torres thanked coaches Josh Acosta, Chris Vo and training partner Felipe Duenas for taking his performance to another level. Dominguez was involved in a nail-biting third-place match, producing an escape to win in sudden death. The match was tied at 2-2 after regulation and two overtime periods. In the sudden death period, Dominguez chose the bottom. An escape would mean a win and a failed attempt at an escape would mean a loss. Since neither wrestler could hold the top position very well, it was only fitting that the match ended with an escape. “I kept choosing the bottom so I could come back up and get some

points,” Dominguez said. “I feel I’m stronger on the bottom than the top. … I was tired but happy to win the match. I got fifth last year, so my goal was to improve on that.” Dominguez was in a literal grudge match, as he and his opponent couldn’t move each other with much success. “His height was a big factor for me,” Dominguez said. “I wasn’t able to grab him or grab a leg (for potential takedowns).” Dominguez has made tremendous progress in a short time. It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that Dominguez will be one of the least experienced wrestlers in the CCS Championships. After all, he only started wrestling in his junior season, figuring the conditioning aspect of the sport would prepare him for his favorite sport of football. Not only did wrestling do that, but he’s gained a sense of pride and satisfaction in knowing he’s come a long way in a short period.

sideline for the duration of the game, rallying his team to one of the most impressive wins in school history, despite a shaky start. “I think that at the beginning of the game, everyone was a little amped up, a little bit jittery,” Berniker said. “There was a lot of energy in the gym from the crowd, they were playing at a very fast tempo. Both teams were just amped up and it took a while to get into the flow of the game. But then we just kind of settled in and played our style of basketball and luckily it was enough.” Freshman Lydia Sattler was perhaps the most dominant player from either team, putting in another double-digit performance in rebounds and points. Still, Sattler did acknowledge the differences between high school varsity basketball and what she had been used to playing. “It’s a faster paced game,” she said. “It made me learn a new, different game style than I was used to in middle school. I’ve just improved my game, escalated and grown.” That may be the understatement

here’s a reason they play these games. On paper, there was really no reason for the host Oakwood High girls basketball team to beat Redding’s Shasta High Tuesday. After all, Shasta is bigger, better, and more experienced in the tough Central Coast Section playoffs. And that’s why they don’t leave the results to stats alone; because on paper, heart doesn’t show up as a stat. In a thrilling contest that went down to the final few seconds, the unseeded Hawks stunned the No. 10 seed Wolves 29-25 in the opening round of the Division V playoffs. To some, the performance wasn’t that much of a surprise though, given Oakwood’s 10-4 record in the Mission Trail Athletic League Coastal Division. That strong performance catapulted them into this CCS

championship tournament. And while its first test could have been a heartbreaker, thanks to Oakwood’s fortitude, it ended in a heart stopper. Oakwood junior and team captain Jade Bautista ran her squad all night long, but ultimately, decisiontime came down to her. As the game’s top scorer with 11 points, it certainly made sense that with time ticking away, the ball came her way. With less than a minute to go, Bautista glanced at the clock, stood just inside the 3-point arc and drained the shot, putting the game back into Oakwood’s hands. A three-year member of the varsity team, Bautista knew that it was all on her to keep the team’s CCS dreams alive. “I saw the time, we were kind of down and short,” she said. “I knew we needed at least one shot or at least a free throw to get it and my first instinct was just to shoot. I got the open look so I just went for it.” When the shot went in, no one looked more relieved than Oakwood coach Isaac Berniker, who had been animated on the

of the year from Sattler as she’s gone from an aspiring starter to star player over the course of just one season, and yet she still says she has plenty to learn. “I need to work on my conditioning, I know that,” she said. “But also just my ball handling and talking more. It’s an amazing game for high school and I always keep on learning.”

That attitude, along with her athletic prowess, definitely impressed Berniker, who said, “Lydia is such an athlete, she has a competitive spirit which is something you can’t necessarily teach. Towards the end of the game we kind of called one play and she kind of changed it and wanted to take a clutch shot and I’m just glad she’s on our team.”

Live Oak High ready for CCS playoff redemption Jump From 19 can finish. … I’ve never had a freshmen class like this.” Lema and fellow freshmen Audrey Reed, Isabella Fiorentino and goalkeeper Molly Newquist have been impact players who will be key in the team’s CCS title hopes not

just this season but for the years ahead. Most of the girls who end up playing for Live Oak have already played for Vasquez for his club program, the Orchard Valley Toros. “So it’s an easy transition for them since they know my system,” Vasquez said.

It’s seniors like Williams who have also been key, as the center back plays a vital role in helping the team maintain constant communication on the field. “One of the captain’s roles is to help each other gain more confidence, encourage

all the new girls coming in because they’ve helped practices get better and better. We’re all working hard in every practice, and it would be really awesome if we can go all the way (and win a CCS championship).” Williams has truly grown on and off the field

in her four years at Live Oak, and she said soccer has played an important role in strengthening her in every phase of life. “Because I’ve overcome challenges in soccer, it makes me more confident to be stronger in life situations,” she said.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.
