Ohlone swims in State meet
Ten swimmers from Ohlone’s men’s and women’s swimming teams competed in the Swimming State Championships at Mt. San Antono College last weekend. Nine men and one woman made the trip from the Bay Area to the city of Walnut in Los Angeles County to represent Ohlone in the tournament. All nine of Ohlone’s men participated [...]
Renegades riding to playoffs on ‘Cloud 9’
For the second straight season, the Ohlone baseball team will host a Regional Semifinal (and if they move forward, most likely a Regional Final as well). Also, for the second straight season, the Renegades finish the regular season with less than 10 losses (nine in 2009, eight this season) and won their season finale, this [...]
Renegades handle Skyline for fourth straight win
All it took was four pitches for the Ohlone baseball team to take control of Skyline in their 12-6 win over the Trojans in San Bruno. After Steven Ramos and Cody Foster opened the game with back to back singles, third-baseman Zach Johnson capitalized on the opening surge with a three-run home run, giving Ohlone [...]
Basketball coaches give back at camps
Coaches and players from the Ohlone men’s basketball team have found a rewarding way to connect with the community through the production of a Youth Instructional League dedicated to teaching kids the fundamentals of basketball. Members of the men’s program dedicate five Sunday mornings in April and May to helping local children develop their abilities. [...]
Ohlone goes 9-1 to end regular season
The Ohlone Lady Renegades ended their regular season on a lot of high notes. First, there was that nine-game win streak they had ripped off. Secondly, there was Shelby Tomasello’s walk-off grand slam against De Anza on sophomore day. Continuing, freshman pitcher Jessica Varady was also named the CCCAA Female Athlete for the month of [...]
Renegade bats lead way to 20-win mark
Ohlone’s win Tuesday over West Valley officially proved one thing in particular about this year’s team: They’ll always bounce back strong from a loss. After allowing a solo home run to Vikings designated hitter Bryan Hewitt in the top of the fourth inning, the Renegades fired back on all cylinders, answering Hewitt’s solo homer with [...]
Tomasello walks off in grand fashion
Conventional wisdom usually speaks against walking the three-hole hitter to get to the clean-up hitter. So when De Anza pitcher Blanka Molina intentionally walked Jessica Varady to face Shelby Tomasello in a 3-3 game already in extra innings to load the bases, everyone in the Ohlone dugout was left scratching their heads. Especially Tomasello, who [...]
Ohlone’s top swimmers aiming for conference
Ask three of Ohlone’s best men’s swimmers how they expect the team to fare at next weekend’s Conference Championship meet, and you’ll get one answer. “First place all the way.” Those were the words of Jason Corbett, and they were echoed by teammates Nick Raimondi and Matt Kerner. “Second or third is not an option,” [...]
Renegades on pace for playoffs again
For the second straight year, it’s safe to say that Ohlone baseball is playoff bound. However a second consecutive Coast Conference Pacific title may soon be out of reach. There have been times where Ohlone has looked like the dominant team they have been under, now second-year head coach Jordon Twohig, and there have been [...]
In full swing
Now that the first pitch has been thrown for both the Athletics and Giants, it is only right that I break down my expectations for our beloved Bay Area squads. Let’s start off closer to home with the A’s. Opening night opened up as most die-hard fans expected as the boys in green and gold [...]
