    Boys Lacrosse: Boys lacrosse had two great performances last week against very good Bay Area teams. The boys lost to Monte Vista HS 15-11 and then beat the third best team in Northern California, Marin Academy, 12-11 in overtime. The team had a scrimmage against one of the top teams in the country from Dallas on Saturday, and is planning to have a big week against Saint Francis this coming Friday at home. 

    Girls Lacrosse: Girls lacrosse opened the year with a solid win over University HS in San Francisco 15-2 before dropping their game against Saint John’s from Houston 12-8. The team plays Amador Valley, San Ramon Valley and Marin Catholic this week.

    Boys Golf: Boys golf defeated Pinewood and Crystal Springs last week in stroke play and will look for three wins this week against Harker, Sacred Heart Prep and Harker again.

    Swimming: Swimming for both genders has been great so far with much improvement last year. With one more pre-season meet left, the Knights will look to strengthen their times against Serra and Gunn tomorrow. 

    Track: The K-Bell invitational was this weekend, and Paul Touma and Robert Miranda competed. Paul Touma got second in the triple jump event and currently has the third best distance in the nation. 

    Boys Tennis: Boys tennis was dominant again, defeating both Kings Academy and Sacred Heart Prep 7-0 on the road.
