Historic Season: NorCal Champions!

By Matt Coleman

Jacob Woods knows something about RBI’s, driving in five on three hits to help lead the Monte Vista Christian School varsity baseball team to victory over Berean Christian on Saturday for the D5 CIF Regional Championship.

The Mustangs moved early, scoring four runs in the third inning. Cannon Silva, Mark Spohn, and Woods each had RBI’s in the big inning.

Woods was also the winning pitcher, allowing zero runs on two hits over three innings. Dylan Hawkins threw two innings in relief out of the bullpen.

In total, MVC had 12 hits with Woods, Spohn, Joseph Keldsen Jr and Silva each having multiple hits for the Mustangs. Spohn and Woods had three hits apiece to lead the Mustangs.

MVC finishes their historic season with a 24-8-1 record, winning both a Central Coast Section and California Interscholastic Federation NorCal championships.

Mone Vista Christian School will honor this historic season with a ring ceremony on Friday, Sept. 2, at halftime of the first home football game vs. Santa Teresa.
