Baseball games of the week: Savanna vs. Anaheim

April 7th, 2009, 8:49 pm by Damian Calhoun, OCVarsity.com since 2004

Thursday: Savanna (7-5, 4-1) vs. Anaheim (8-1, 5-0), 7 p.m. at Glover Stadium

Outlook: Pitchers in this game beware! Savanna has scored 27 runs in its previous two games. The Colonists scored 21 in one inning on Friday!

I didn’t think that was even possible. But it happened, and our very own Steve Fryer was there to see it. (I wish I could have seen his scorebook.)

The Calhoun Six to Watch: Five more to keep an eye on

November 11th, 2008, 7:08 pm by Damian Calhoun, OCVarsity.com since 2004

Five more to keep an eye on:

Santiago (7-2, 3-1) vs. Los Amigos (5-4, 4-0)
Friday, 7 p.m., at Garden Grove High

The scoop: From fourth to first? That’s what at stake for the Lobos. Los Amigos was the preseason pick to finish fourth in the Garden Grove League. The Cavaliers can grab a share of the title with a victory, but could also finish third.

JSerra wpolo wins coin flip, SM-Servite to play for third (corrected)

November 6th, 2008, 8:54 am by DAN ALBANO, ocvarsity.com

Update: this post has been updated twice already this morning because apparently I left my brain at the Foothill-El Toro water polo match last pm. Some might argue it’s not much of a loss for me.

JSerra’s boys water polo team this morning won a coin-flip for SECOND place in the Trinity League, leaving Santa Margarita and Servite to play for third place. That match will be played Friday at SERVITE at 4 p.m.

The Eagles forced the three-way tie by upsetting No. 8 JSerra on Wednesday. But by winning the coin-flip, the Lions helped minimize the damage.

Ventura’s boys water polo captures Vellekamp No. 2 (corrected)

November 1st, 2008, 8:03 pm by DAN ALBANO, ocvarsity.com

This headline now correctly reads: Vellekamp No. 2 (not No. 1, which was a few weeks ago)

For those following Division I boys water polo this fall, Ventura has been mentioned as a team to watch for the playoffs and the Cougars proved it tonight at Northwood by claiming the Hank Vellekamp No. 2 Tournament with an 11-10 victory against Loyola in what is being considered the tournament’s championship match.

Final standings from the top-four teams from pool play:

1. Ventura, 5-0

2. Loyola 4-1

2. Carlsbad 4-1 (didn’t play Loyola)

4. Servite 3-2

Anaheim star RB still on the mend

October 28th, 2008, 6:52 pm by DAN ALBANO, ocvarsity.com

Anaheim running back Mike Reyes, the Colonists’ leading rusher with 390 yards, likely will not play Friday against Orange League foe Century.

Reyes has a twisted knee, Colonists coach Lanny Booher said Tuesday. The senior tried to play last week in a loss to Santa Ana Valley but lasted one play, the coach said.

Katella: no word on water polo appeal

October 28th, 2008, 12:18 am by DAN ALBANO, ocvarsity.com

As of late Monday night, Katella had not heard the outcome of its appeal with the state CIF regarding the eligibility case of foreign exchange student and water polo player Mikael Nielsen.

Katella appealed a Southern Section ruling that declared Nielsen, a junior from Denmark, ineligible because his host family includes Katella’s water polo coach, Grafton Weiss.

The school’s appeal hearing was Wednesday.

Nielsen currently has no eligibility at any level.

Tesoro gets my vote for No. 1 in county football

October 20th, 2008, 8:14 am by DAN ALBANO, ocvarsity.com

It wasn’t exactly a slam-dunk but my vote for No. 1 in the county football poll went to Tesoro, which knocked off previously No. 1-ranked Mission Viejo in impressive fashion. Tesoro can play better than it did Friday and that should be a scary thought for San Clemente this week.

Tesoro could have won that game at least 38-14 but didn’t capitalize on some chances in the third quarter.
