Baseball Team

Our Baseball team is off to a strong start, with 9 games played so far this season. The big highlight: Coach Jaime Garcia organized a special outing that took two years in the making: our Tigers played at Angel Stadium in Anaheim! In a thrilling game, the boys secured an 8-6 win over St. Margaret’s of San Juan Capistrano. This week, the team heads into league play, facing La Canada and Monrovia, and will host Temple City next Monday. With a few rain-posted games, make sure to check the SPHS Athletics website or MaxPreps for any updates. 

Badminton Team

The Badminton season kicks off Wednesday, March 12th, as our Tigers host Redlands High School for an exciting inaugural match. The team will also travel to San Gabriel HS on March 17th and host Arcadia at SPHS on March 20th. It’s shaping up to be a good season and we’re excited to see the team in action!

Boys Golf Team

Despite the cold and rainy weather, Boys Golf is hitting the links. After a top finish in the first Rio Hondo League (RHL) match, they took second place in last Wednesday’s tournament at Whittier Narrows. The team will face La Salle at Alhambra Golf Course on March 11th and 13th for more RHL action. Let’s keep up the momentum!

Boys Tennis Team

In Boys Tennis, Coach Alex Muresan has had a strong start in his first year as head coach for the boys’ team, following a successful fall season with the girls’ tennis team. The boys’ team has already shown impressive results, including a close contest against D-1 Arcadia and wins over Mark Keppel. This week, the team starts league play against San Marino and Temple City. If we have any rainouts, matches will be rescheduled.

Next Monday, both JV and Varsity will face a long away trip to pick up that travel experience by playing at Etiwanda High School on March 17th. We’re hoping for good weather!

Softball Team

Softball has been busy and off to a great start, going 2-1 after an exciting San Dimas Saints Tournament in Riverside. The team secured two big wins this past weekend and will face San Marino and Temple City this week, with games scheduled for next week against Alhambra, Glendale, and La Canada.

Boys Volleyball Team

Boys Volleyball recently took a trip out of state to compete in the Nevada Winter Volleyball Tournament, where they faced high-level competition and came away with some key wins. The team also got plenty of bonding time on their overnight trip. This week, the Tigers will take on St. Francis on March 12th, followed by a match at Monrovia on March 14th. Over the weekend, they’ll head to UC Santa Barbara for another tournament, gaining more team experience before CIF playoffs.

Swim & Dive Team

In the pool, Boys and Girls Swim have been on fire, led by Coach Julie Burns in her second year with the team. The swimmers recently took home first place at the Los Amigos Tournament and posted impressive times at the Arcadia Invitational and La Canada Invitational. With a team that’s one of the largest in years, the Varsity swimmers will compete in the prestigious Mt. SAC Winterfest Swim Invitational this Friday and Saturday.

Track & Field Team

Finally, from the sea to the land: our Track & Field team has been showing incredible promise. Last week, they started the season at the Arcadia League Challenge, where our athletes posted personal bests in both track and field events. Then, at the Redondo Nike Invitational, the Tigers took home first place in the Distance Medley Relay, out of 60 teams. With several medals earned throughout the two-day event, the Varsity Sprints team set a new school record in the Sprint Medley Relay as well. 

This weekend, the Tigers head to Covina for the Qualifier Meet, and next week, we’ll host a League Cluster Meet at SPHS with Blair, San Marino, and Monrovia participating. We also have elite distance runners invited to the Meet of Champions on April 22nd, while the rest of the team will head to Mission Bay HS in San Diego for an overnight meet

Thank you, as always, for your continued support of our student-athletes! We’re proud of the hard work and dedication they’re putting in, and we’re excited for the rest of the season. We look forward to seeing you at the games, meets, and matches as we cheer on our Tigers!  Keep the umbrella handy this week and we will see you at the course, court, field, gym, pool or track.
