At the end of March, the JV Women's lacrosse program has began with a 1-3 record. The home opener of the 16th was a nail biter all the way, but Murrieta Mesa managed to score in the final seconds and defeated Sage 3-2. The next two games were consecutively played on the 22nd and 23rd and both were losses against Mt. Carmel and Helix. Mt. Carmel led 5-0 in the first half, but the Bobcats came roaring back with 4 to make it a one goal game. Sadly, Mt. Carmel scored 3 and took the game 8-4. Helix never lost the lead as they maintained a strong offense and limited the passing of Sage Creek in their 7-5 win. Right before spring break, Sage defeated Rancho Bernardo on the 31st, which left them hopefully, with good momentum going into the next set of games. Varsity March did not treat Varsity kindly, as they stand 0-6 going into spring break. Their home opener against Murrieta Mesa was a tough 10-8 loss, however, the rest of the games played were decided by 5 goals or more. Santa Fe Christian won 11-6 on the 17th as they had a commanding 3 goal lead at all times throughout the game. The Mt. Carmel Sundevils were even less forgiving as they led 7-2 in the first half and then finished with a 16-6 lead. Helix and Pacific Ridge shut the Bobcat offense down completely at home on the 23rd and 30th as they won 12-3 and 10-2. Rancho Bernardo took the final stab at Sage Creek on the 31st, as they managed 10 runs in the first half and cleaned them out 16-3. JV
Our women's softball team is off to a rocky start this season, as they begin 0-8 through the month of March. Defense has been letting them down, as opponents on average are scoring 21 runs a game. Meanwhile, the are only scoring 3 runs. In the first three games of the season, the team mustered just 4 runs, but since then their bats have been picking up. If the pitchers could find their spots and if the defense can stand its ground, this team will see a quick and productive turnaround Varsity Varsity is having a challenging start to the season as well, as they have began with an 0-6 record. Only two of their first six games had a final box score of more than 5 runs scored, while the rest of the games were 3 runs or less. Opponents like Valley Center, San Dieguito Academy, and La Jolla Country Day have been overwhelming strong on offense while they have held the Bobcat bats to just gusts of wind as the ball goes by. As Spring break comes to a close, we will see how our Varsity team bounces back. |
