Manteca comes up short in the foothills
SONORA - Either heads or tails will determine Manteca's postseason destiny. The Buffaloes fell to Sonora, 3-2, in the foothills Thursday afternoon after all three singles matches went the way of the home team. With the loss, Manteca (11-3 Valley Oak League, 15-9) slipped into a second-place tie with Oakdale, setting up a fateful coin flip to decide which squad will move on to the playoffs. Arnie Morales and Alex Barragan avenged their only regular ...
Pages remain unbeaten with win over Bulldogs
East Union freshman softball coach Ron Kackley had never beaten Tracy High. Fitting then was it that the skipper got the illusive victory thanks to perhaps his best squad ever. Behind Haleigh Castner's complete-game, six-strikeout gem, the Pages (6-0 Valley Oak League) collected win No. 20 to remain undefeated Thursday at Northgate Park. Kailee Nuding finished 3 for 4 and Alisya Hoffman hit a huge two-run single in the fifth. "We got behind early and ...
Good way to preserve boat engines: Slow down
A common gripe among boat owners is the dependability of their engines. If you were to hang around boat owners long enough you would most likely hear them favor one brand of engines over another. Personally, I've had good luck with my outboard engines regardless of the brand. What I believe to be the reason behind my good luck is that I rarely run my engine at its maximum. I've always believed that just because ...

Ripon drops nine-inning heartbreaker to undefeated Escalon
RIPON - Zach Evans plated Ripon's first run with a leadoff homer in the sixth. And he, along with many others in attendance, thought he scored the game-winning run in the bottom of the eighth to stun undefeated Escalon during an anticipated Trans Valley League contest. With two outs and Evans representing the deciding score at third base, teammate Jared Macedo got caught in a pickle between the first- and second-base bags to catch Escalon ...

Kelsey Emmerson was fantastic for the East Union sophomore softball team in a double-header sweep Wednesday at Northgate Park.
Vander Tuig no-hits Buffaloes
Curtiss May couldn't have pitched much better for Manteca in a 10-1 loss Tuesday. And Oakdale's Nick Vander Tuig, oddly enough, could have. Vander Tuig beaned Ricky Acosta in the fourth inning to break up a perfect game, and two errors in the fifth allowed Kevin Allen to reach and score Manteca's only run. "He was close (to a perfect game), but at least he gets the no-no," Oakdale coach Hondo Arpoika said. The UCLA-bound ...
