Gavilan College

The Gavilan College women's volleyball program reappeared in 2005 after an 11-year hiatus. Two years later, Kevin Kramer took over as head coach, quickly, and quietly, turning a team that totaled a combined eight victories in 2005-06 to a conference contender.

It was smooth sailing for Gavilan Wednesday as the team cruised to its fifth straight victory. The Rams shutdown the visiting Skyline 25-14, 25-19, 25-19 at home to maintain a perfect 5-0 conference record and improve to 15-6 overall on the season.  Lilly Martinez had a career high 10 kills in the game to lead the team. Jessica Stofer and Tasmin Apple each had seven kills a piece while Savanna Hartman added six and Ryan Asp and Andreinna Castaneda each had five.  It was business as usual for Sabina Gerard who dished out 32 assists before handing over things over to Lissette Pedraza who finished the match with four of her own. Karina Daniels led Gavilan on defense by picking up 16 digs. Daisy Valladares had 10 and Gerard added nine. The trio in addition to Hartman each had two aces in the game.  Gavilan will be back on the court at 6:30 p.m. Friday at Canada College in Redwood City. 

Heather Johnson, Kayla Medrano and Kari Bittle drove in three runs each to lead Gavilan College’s softball team to a 15-7 home win over the City College of San Francisco on Tuesday.

Staring defeat in the face, the Gavilan College women’s volleyball team fought back from a two-sets-to-none hole and a daunting 22-15 deficit in the third set to steal a victory – 17-25, 21-25, 25-23, 25-18, 15-13 – from visiting Foothill College in thrilling fashion Friday night.
