2013 Lompoc GVB Alumni Game

The 2013 edition of the Annual clash between the current crop of Braves and the representatives of a few prior harvests took place on Thursday, 22 August to the delight of a boisterous crowd at Paisola Pavillion.


Alyssa Hamlin has returned to her Alma Mater as a Math Teacher

Alumni Coach Don Savella    LHS Head Coach 1985-1991 & 2001-2008

The Alumni Team
The Braves won !!!
Granted that was sort of pre-ordained since all 4 teams playing were denominated 'Braves', but the whole program were winners Thursday night.

The Alumni got to revisit the scenes of past 'glory (?)',spend some time with friends, and try and show the whipper-snappers that they still know a thing or two about the game.

The Varsity showed tremendous improvement in defeating a very game Alumni squad to even the series at 2-2. The JV dominated the Frosh in their Contest. And the Freshmen got to play on 'the big stage'.

Perhaps more importantly, the spaghetti dinner fundraiser which followed the games had a line out the door.

It was also great to see Alumni Coach Dom Savella up and about. He is slowly recovering from back surgery and related problems.

It was also great to learn that 2008 LHS Grad Alyssa Hamlin, well known for her 'joie de vivre' has returned to the school as a Math Teacher.
