The Redwood High boys basketball team has played perennial power Branson tough several times over the past four seasons — including a pair of one-point losses in the MCAL playoffs — but had yet to pick up a victory. That changed this week in part due to a clutch performance from sophomore Ains Fish.
Elsewhere, San Marin’s sharpshooter was on target from downtown to help the Mustangs to a 3-0 week. Soccer players from San Domenico and Archie Williams scored in bunches to help guide their teams to victory.
Terra Linda’s record-setting triple jumper broke the county mark just a week after posting the best distance in school history.
Ains Fish, Redwood basketball
Fish scored a team-high 13 points on Tuesday, including a crucial late bucket to help Redwood hold off Branson, 53-50, and earn its most impressive win of the season.
Emily Sullivan, San Marin basketball
Sullivan was red-hot from three-point range, making five of them in a 49-39 victory against Terra Linda and four more in a 51-42 win against Tam. Across three games, Sullivan scored 41 points to led the Mustangs to a 3-0 week.
Marie Jones, Terra Linda track
A week after setting a school record in the triple jump, Jones took down the county record at the Redwood Empire Invitational on Saturday. Jones set a new mark of 38 feet, 3 inches, eclipsing the record of 37-9.5 set by Tam’s Jessica Rasmusson in 2013.
Owen Benson, Archie Williams soccer
Benson netted a hat trick, helping Archie Williams outlast Novato 3-2 on Wednesday.
Sally Cesko, San Marin track
Cesko had a busy weekend at the Redwood Empire invitational, placing second in the high jump — with a height of 5 feet, 1 inch — third in the triple jump and sixth in the pole vault.
Audrey Nelson and Olivia Quinby, Terra Linda volleyball
Nelson and Quinby piled up kills this past week to lead the Trojans to a four-set win against San Rafael and a five-set win against Archie Williams. Nelson had 36 kills over the two contests while Quinby piled up 38 kills.
Luka Vujicic, San Domenico soccer
The Panthers had never won a Bay Counties League West game in their few seasons in the league until Monday, when Vujicic scored four times to lift San Domenico to a 5-2 win against Stuart Hall.
Bennett Steiger, Archie Williams water polo
Steiger scored four goals, including the game winner with 90 seconds left, to lead Archie Williams to a come-from-behind 13-12 win over Redwood.
