Cabrillo looks to continue its winning tradition set by swimmers like these CIF Champs from last year.Today we preview swimming, track & field, and boys golf. Remember all rosters and schedules are subject to change. And away we go... [if Blogger starts behaving again]...
Swimming & Diving
Schedules: Lompoc Cabrillo
Cabrillo girls have won seven consecutive league championships, and the boys have won 4 of the last 5. Nuff said.
Lompoc
Rosters: Boys Girls
[Kevin Hicks (boys)]
[John McNutt/Jackie Jaenicke (girls)]
Lompoc's swim squads have three things in common - some talent, lots of inexperience, and lack of depth. On the boys team 14 of the 16 members are in either their 1st or 2nd season of high school competition. They are bolstered somewhat, however, by the addition of foreign exchange students Jacobo Setti (Italy) & Georges Hoebrechts (Belgium) and by Kyle Pickles and Ed Pelkey off the wrestling team. The girls (13 varsity, 18 JV) have several of the youngsters off of the very young Water Polo squad, that they hope will do well. These include Brooke Crouse, Kimly Hoang, Andrea King, Shelby Carpenter, & Erika Elenes.
The Braves stuck their collective toes in the water on Tuesday at Atascadero, and experienced Piranha like conditions. The girls lost 133 - 38, scoring 3rds in the relays and five individual events. Shelby Carpenter (200 Free/500 Free), and Kimly Hoang (200 IM/100 Back) each had two, and Andrea Caballero had one (100 Free).
At the LPL Pentathalon on Friday, Brooke Crouse was 5th in the girls junior / senior event (won by Paty Vogel of Germany, an exchange student at Santa Maria HS). On the boys side, Kyle Pickles was 5th) in the upperclassmen races, Michael Ostrander 5th and Tyler Emory 9th for the frosh / soph squad.
Lompoc hosted Paso Robles in place of the scheduled Righetti Warriors @ COLAC on Tuesday (4 March). The exact score was not readily available after the meet, but Paso won both the boys & girls contests by large margins.
Cabrillo
Rosters: Boys Girls (JV)
[Joel Jory (boys)]
[Scott Alvarez/Dave Riley (girls)]
The Cabrillo swim teams are once again large, deep, and fast. Coach Jory has 25 boys (8 seniors) out this year, while the girls have 27 (10 seniors) on varsity and another 31 on the JV. Many are veterans of the highly sucessful Cabrillo Water Polo units, especially on the girls team. Rachel Nelson, Ashlea Coski, the Huggins sisters, Michelle Buss, Daniela Alvarado, Maggie Carroll, Jessica Denton, Meghan Bradley, and the rest of the usual suspects are back to swamp the competition.
The Conq's hit the pool on Thursday against Righetti [story], the boys lost 94-76 while the girls won 103-67. On Friday at the LPL Pentathlon, Cabrillo dominated the field, but was unable to capture the top spots. The girls took 8 of the top 10 spots in both the "varsity" (sr/jr) and "JV" (so/fr) races. The boys were not far behind - taking 6 of 10 in the varsity competition and 4 of 10 in the JV.
Track & Field
Schedules: Lompoc Cabrillo
St. Joseph is the defending LPL champions - both boys and girls. Santa Ynez is usually good, Templeton is improving, and Cabrillo looks to be in the mix. Lompoc, Morro Bay, and Santa Maria round out the league.
Lompoc
Boys Roster
Girls Roster
Lompoc opened their season at the Paso Robles Invitational on Saturday. There was little to show for their trip to the 14-team tournament, except for two nice performances on the girls team. Jozza Ray cleared 5"4' in the High Jump, and Chelsea Cassulo had a 38' 6.5" effort in the Shot Put. They start LPL action by hosting St. Joseph on Thursday the 6th of March.
Cabrillo
Boys Roster
Girls Roster
Cabrillo likewise opened their season at the Paso Robles Invitational on Saturday, where the boys finished in 3rd with 55 points, eleven points back of the host Bearcats and 5 behind LPL foe Templeton. They were also just three points ahead of another LPL team - the St. Joseph Knights. In the girls meet, St. Joseph was 2nd (64 points) & Templeton was 5th (50 points) with both local squads down the list. Cabrillo travels to Santa Ynez on Thursday (6 March) to open LPL competition.
Boys Golf
Schedules: Lompoc Cabrillo
2007 LPL titlists Santa Ynez return everybody. Morro Bay & St. Joseph were in the race throughout the season, with Templeton not far behind.
Cabrillo and Lompoc had their momments, while Santa Maria struggled.
There is one major change in LPL procedure this year, the league dual meets will only be nine holes. The tournaments will remain at eightteen holes.
Lompoc [Chris Adams]
Roster
Last year, 1st year coach Chris Adams fielded a very young Braves squad. The top six consisted of three freshmen, two sophomores, and junior Brent Van Dyke. Some familiarity with both the game and the courses should help. Lompoc had planned to open last Monday @ Chalk Mountain against Atascadero, but the Greyhounds pulled out of the match. So they opened the season on Tuesday vs. Paso Robles (under new head coach Steve Hahn) @ Hunter Ranch. In the opener Lompoc shot a 502, a little higher than they were scoring at the end of last season, and quite a bit higher than the Bearcats 407. They next host Nipomo @ La Purisima on Wednesday. Hopefully, having the opening game jitters gone and the home cookin' will help.
Cabrillo [Craig Knowles, Don Cross]
Roster
In boys golf each team has six players and scores the top five. Cabrillo boys golf coach Craig Knowles has 17 players on the squad this season, so he has some decisions to make. Five players have already separated themselves from the pack and figure to constitute the core of the scoring group. They are seniors Terry Naughton & Jeff Martin, sophomore Chaz Whitmore, and freshmen Aaron Hay & Drew Langston. Naughton and Martin are the only two seniors on the team, while Whitmore was 7th in league last year.
On Thursday, the Conquistadores traveled Hunter Ranch to take on the Paso Robles Bearcats. Unfortunately, the teams were unable to complete the match - only finishing 15 of the 18 holes. The match was decided based on the front nine scores. Cabrillo scores included: Naughton-43, Martin- 51, Whitmore- 46, Hay & Langston - both 48. It was the first time many of the team had seen the Hunter Ranch course.
Cabrillo traveled to play Nipomo @ Monarch Dunes on Monday, and to Alisal to play Santa Ynez, SLO & Righetti on Tuesday.
The SLO Tigers won the event with a 409 score on the Ranch course, followed by Santa Ynez (412), Righetti (414), and Cabrillo (466). The Conq's scorers were Chaz Witmore (80), Drew Langston (89), Perry Naughton & Aaron Hay (both 97), and Mike Morgan (103).

Cabrillo was also beaten 14-4 at home by Nipomo. While the Titans swept the doubles, Eric Wang managed to win two singles sets.

Softball/Baseball
Lompoc
Lompoc hosted Paso Robles in both sports on Tuesday, and it was a tale of missed opportunities in both games. The baseball team [story] lost 9-5, after giving up nine runs in the first four innings, and stranding eleven runners on base in the last four. The girls were in a scoreless tie going into the sixth inning when the starter, frosh Brianna Vickery, finally surrenderred two runs to a quite good Bearcat line-up. In the seventh, the Braves had a shot at pulling it out. Pitcher Michelle Moses gave up a walk with one out. A fielders choice then resulted in a runner on first and two out. The next batter doubled to left center, driving in a run and moving to third base on an overthrown ball. Unfortunately, the Braves rally died on the vine when the following batter struck out to end the game. The JV softball team also lost 5-1 to the Bearcats, although Coach Eva Luna cited the high quality of play by Mariah LaShore in the loss.
Cabrillo
Cabrillo also had problems converting scoring chances. Trailing Santa Barbara 5-2 in the bottom of the seventh, they got two runners on but Don's reliever Mason Radke (who got the win vs. Lompoc on Friday) closed out the Conq's. Santa Barbara had taken the lead when two Cabrillo errors helped give them two runs in the first inning. They then added a run each in the 3rd, 5th, & 7th innings. Cabrillo scored in the second on Deuce Galvan's solo homer. It was his first varity at-bat, he also doubled later in the game. They then manufactured one in the fourth. Zach Pecyna scored after singling, stealing second, advancing to third on a wild pitch, and coming home on a ground out fielders choice by Galvan. Aaron Naputi started on the mound for the Conquistadors, and was relieved by Brian Engler and Justin Boggs. ---- el stato
