I've been covering Oakdale sports since 2014. Tonight will be a night I will always remember. The Mustangs stood toe-to-toe with Liberty. This team showed heart and grit and there is no reason to hold your heads down. The fans were electric all night too!

I usually don't put very many personal things on here. However, my wife and I are expecting our second baby! We just found out this morning! So excited!!!
Congrats to former Oakdale High School softball standout Grace Green as she won the Big 12 Freshman of the Year honors. I covered Grace all four years of her high school career. A class act on and off the field.

Released from the hospital. The road to recovery will be long, painful and rewarding. My PT sessions have been great. I can only take it one day at a time. But the support has been overwhelming and much appreciated. Thank you all again. Go Mustangs! Hope to see you all soon.
Jaiden Williams is exiting the game with an apparent ankle injury. As he was being helped off the Oakdale fans were chanting "JAIDEN! JAIDEN! JAIDEN!" Love these fans. Hopefully Williams is okay. Williams had an interception and four tackles.

An emotional night at the OHS Water Polo award ceremony. Head coach Diane Kline announced her retirement. I've been covering OHS sports for 5 yrs and Coach Kline is wonderful person to be around and has so many achievements. Thank you coach Kline.

The OHS fans never disappoints! In The Corral or on the road. I can here them across the field all night long singing John Denver, Tim McGraw, Journey and more!
Another great year of OHS sports. Section titles, league titles, competitors in state titles. I want to thank everyone from coaches, parents, fans, thus who work at the gates and snack shacks, boosters and Mr. Simoncini for all that made it possible!

Freshman Sean Gingerich (Oakdale High) named Freshman Hitter of the Year for the Big 8 as well as 1st Team Infield. Gingerich lead the Pirates in hitting with a .370 batting average. He also led all MJC hitters with 60 hits, 11 doubles, 36 RBI's and 10 stolen bases.
Proud of this student-athlete. His work ethic is off the charts. Always greets me with a handshake and a smile. He will make a tremendous student-athlete wherever he decides to go
It was pretty bright outside but I had a great time at Junior Day at UC Davis. Hopefully there’s an opportunity available. Thank you

Today was a successful PT session! My therapist was very pleased with my improvement from just a week ago. My knee flexibility improved by 6% and tomorrow is my x-ray and MRI. On the road to recovery but I know I will cross the finish line.
Had a great time tonight at the OHS football game tonight. It was my first time back since my accident. I wasnt on the sidelines but it felt great to be there. Thank you to everyone who showed me love tonight.

As a Kings fan, I watched Kobe Bryant destroy my team year after year. Regardless of that, I always respected him. A true legend. An icon. A Champion. An MVP. A husband. A father. For many he is the GOAT. No matter how you viewed him, we are all in mourning.

Oakdale's O-Line opened up lanes for their back field and kept QB's Hayden Knittel and Dom McDonald upright most of the night. Here is what Robert Silva had to say following the game.

Prior to tip off the OHS Mustangs basketball team held a moment of silence for the late Norm Antinetti. A great gesture for the legend. The Antinetti family have treated me so well since meeting them in 2014. My heart still hurts for them.

This is the first time in school history that the OHS boys water polo team have reached the CIF Sac-Joaquin Section Championship game. Reached semis in 2010 & 2017. The 2nd seeded Mustangs take on top seed Christian Bros at 11:30 am Sat. Woodcreek HS.

As impressive as his stats are; I would like to speak of Zeke's character. As a sports journalist who has covered him since his seventh grade season; I can honestly say he is one of the most politest student-athletes I have covered. He always made time for me, win or lose.
Lady Mustangs are your 2018 VOL Golf Champions. Two records were set. Madison Blanc lowest individual round at 68 with 4 birdies. Lowest team score as well.

I want to share my most deepest sympathies to Coach Merzon and his family at this most difficult time. Thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family.

Just got caught up on Rel "Hate and Hip Hop". Every week I watch this show and it truly is one of my favorite shows. It makes me laugh, care and reflect. Very powerful. Well done

As we enter a new week I want to wish all OHS athletes the very best this week. No matter what sport; please be safe, have fun & be gracious. if traveling have a safe & victorious trip. I may not be out there but please know that I am supporting you from home.

Things I've improved on this week- I increased my knee flexibility by 11%. I've been able to do my exercises at a more rapid pace and finally; I can now take my foot out of the walking boot for a longer period of time without spasms. Small victories.
I am proud of the Oakdale Mustangs tonight. Score not what they wanted but I would go to battle with those guys any day of the week. I may not be the teams reporter anymore, but I will continue to support them.
Oakdale High School volleyball has been named the 11th seed in the CIF SJS DIII Playoffs. They will travel to take on the sixth seeded El Capitan. Game is scheduled for 7 pm on Tuesday, Oct. 23.
