Baseball: Los Osos senior Ayden Holker deserved a better fate. But the game of baseball doesn’t have feelings. Holker, a 6-foot-4 right-hander, went 7 2/3 innings, didn’t issue a walk and struck out 11 Chino Hills batters. In the bottom of the eighth inning, though, Tyler Cristiano led off with a single. Cristiano was bunted […]

Softball: It would be difficult to dominate a doubleheader quite like Bridget Nemeth did on Saturday. Nemeth led the Tartans to 8-0 and 3-1 Palomares League victories over Claremont. It took nine innings in the second game to complete the sweep. And in the process, the Tartans find themselves just one-game back of second-place Bonita […]

Baseball: It wasn’t that South Hills lost a Hacienda League game on Friday that is newsworthy.
