Baseball
Last week, the baseball team split a two-game series with South San Francisco. Early in the week, the Eagles lost a tough 10-11 matchup with the Warriors, with Mark Hu, grade 9, driving in three runs. Later in the week, Harker got its revenge with an 11-8 win over SSF, this time with Max Lee, grade 11, and Nick Coulter, grade 10, each driving in three runs. This week, the Eagles travel to Terra Nova on Tuesday, Westmoor on Thursday and Harbor on Saturday.

Softball
The softball team won both of its games last week against league opponents. First, the Eagles defeated Notre Dame San Jose 13-5 with Cameron Zell, grade 12, exploding for four hits and five RBIs. Later in the week, the Eagles took down El Camino 14-11, this time led by Natasha Yen, grade 10, who drove in three runs on four hits. This week, the girls host Gunn on Monday before traveling to Menlo Atherton Tuesday and Palo Alto on Thursday.

Track and Field
Freshmen Alexa Lowe and Andrew Chen each had outstanding performances in their 100-meter and long jump events on Saturday.  Both set personal bests in their long jumps.  Frosh Brittany Shou threw a lifetime best in the discus, improving by four feet to 64’7″.  Zoey Rosa, grade 11, ran both the 100- and 300-meter hurdles, in which she set a new personal best. The team competes in its last WBAL meet this Tuesday at Menlo.

After a few weeks off, the boys tennis team is back in action against Menlo on Monday and Pinewood on Wednesday to finish up the regular season.
