{UPDATED TO REFLECT LOCKDOWN CHANGES}
The Lompoc boys golf team have chosen a singular way to honor their former teammate Brandon "The DJ" Pate. Brandon who was killed in a car accident last June just a month short of his 17th birthday, was a starter on the Braves varsity squad last year as a sophomore. Each team member has a memorial embroidered on the sleeve of their uniform shirt (see photo). Also, before Monday's match with Cabrillo a short ceremony will be held adjacent to a tree planted on the La Purisima course in Brandon's honor.

Lompoc Boys Golf
Varsity vs Nipomo Titans @ La Purisima GC [ Story ]. lost 400-486.
The guys had their best outing of the young season, bettering the score they posted on Tuesday by 16 strokes - but still lost handily 400-486. The Braves were led once again by three-year letterman Brent Van Dyke (photo), their only senior, who carded a round of 80 for fourth overall. The other Lompoc scorers under triple digits were the other returning lettermen, sophomore Brian Magann (91) and junior Alex Stone (98). The rest of the varsity consists of frosh Abie Luna (100) and " the Tylers", sophs Tyler Grossi (117) and Tyler Grossini (166). The scores by Magann and Luna were personal bests. Laboring under the "double par" competition rule, it was the first time everyone finished all 18 holes.
JV [No competition was held since there were too few players for scoring, but they did play the course.]
The five man JV team, with freshmen Carter Bovee (127), Nick Martinez (132), Nick Foster (131), and Zach Sleigh (130) was easily out-pointed by the Titans. The fifth member, junior Matt Zebley, a very recent convert to the game managed to beat the aforementioned rule and complete 9 holes for the first time ever.
The Braves take on Cabrillo on Monday (March 10th) at their home - La Purisima Golf Club
Thur, 6 March
LHS Baseball:
Varsity @ Pioneer Valley 3:30 pm. [ Story ] [Stats] lost 6-3.
The Braves squandered their opportunities on Thursday in a 6-3 loss. They received 12 free base runners courtesy of 7 walks and 5 hit batsmen, but they did not convert them into runs because they only had two hits on the day. They put more runs on the board than they had hits, and stranded six runners on base. Starter Ryan Bower went five innings and took the loss.
JV vs. Pioneer Valley 3:30 pm. won 9-6.
The JV on the other hand did what the varsity couldn't do - get clutch hitting. They had come out of the gates strong, scoring five runs in the second inning, but then cooled off, putting up only one more in the next four. The Panthers took advantage of the lull to take a 8-6 lead going into the bottom of the seventh. Lompoc then got some timely hitting, some help (passed ball, etc.) from PV, and tied it up. So when Nick Tatigue came to the plate, with two out and runners on, in the rapidly darkening dusk, the question was whether the Braves could finish the job or would the game be ruled a tie. The sophmore quickly provided the answer by rapping a looping liner to shallow right field for the game-winning RBI. Tatigue, the starting pitcher before being relieved by Pete Hernandez at the start of the sixth, went 4-5 with 5 RBI from the plate. Hernadez got the win. The Panthers left six men on base over the course of the game.
Frosh vs. Pioneer Valley 3:30 pm. lost 7-3.
The freshmen played the visiting Panthers even for much of the game. The problem was that "even" worked to their disadvantage because Lompoc needed to catch up. They gave up a quick five runs in the first inning en route to a 7-3 loss. Pitchers for the Braves were Dillon Morgan (3 innings), Adam Card (2), and Burluson (2).
CHS Baseball :
Varsity @ Paso Robles 6 pm. lost 3-1. [ Stats]
Not a good evening for the Conq's, as junior right-hander Zach Jones shutout the locals for five innings. He had five strikeout, and gave up only three hits and one walk. Paso Robles scored all the runs they would need on a two-run single in the first inning. Tony Elliot started, took the loss, and went four innings. Deuce Galvan pitched two scorless innings in relief.
JV & Frosh idle
LHS Swim vs Righetti @ COLAC 2:30.
Note: All Distances are in Yards.
Righetti frosh sensation Karen Hendrick (left, as she waits for the official to sign her time sheet) was clearly the star of the meet. She posted three CIF qualification or consideration times - two individually (1:04.05 in the 100 butterfly & 1:02.41 in the 100 backstroke) and the 400 freestyle relay (4:04.01) with her sister Julie Hendrick, Ellery White, and Shawna Weston.

CHS Boys Tennis
Varsity [0-3, 0-1] @ St. Joseph 3pm lost 17-1.
The Cabrillo problems began with singles - St Joe's are really good and they swept all nine sets, while loosing only nine games. Doubles, unfortunately for the Conq's, were not much different, but were where the best Cabrillo performance of the day was found. Jordan Daniels & Arjun Ayyar (doubles team #1) led the Knights #1 team 4-3 but couldn't put them away, eventually dropping the set 4-6. They also played the second set tough before falling 3-6, but rallied in the third round to win 6-4. Three players made their 08 varsity debuts- Ben Brady in singles and Casey Owen/ Jose Flores in doubles.
JV vs. St.Joseph won 11-7.
Cabrillo managed to keep the singles portion close winning four sets - two by Ryan Anderson and one each by Frankie Caldera and Alex Hibbs in his first action of the year. Cabrillo was assisted in doubles by St. Joseph being a doubles pair short resulting in three forfeits by the Knights. But the Conquistadors won it on the court with four more set wins, two by David Terrones / Jeff Rodriguez (in his first match of 08), while Calvin Hoffeld / Ricky Ruiz and Matt Stumreiter (also in his first action) / Dan Garmendia contributed one each.
CHS T/F with St Joseph @ Santa Ynez 3 pm.
