Schools

Cloverdale represented in two age divisions

Cloverdale High School baseball and softball teams began the league season in winning fashion last week, with each team logging key victories.

Grapplers of the North Coast Section met for the first time earlier this month in the remodeled former Frost Gym, soon to be officially christened Drew Esquivel Hall. This year’s wrestlers are for the most part, if not entirely, first- and second-year wrestlers, and coach Scott Weidemier is careful to give them the kind of exposure that will grow their skills and enthusiasm for the sport instead of frustrate them...

Cloverdale beats Clear Lake, Willits to finish at 19-1

The Cloverdale Lady Eagles were crowned champions of the NCL-1 softball world on May 13, scoring a 5-4 win over visiting Clear Lake in eight innings to capture the title.  

This year locals are proud to find both boys and girls soccer teams in the NCS playoff, both in Division 4 in line with their size. And the girls basketball team is in the playoffs as well, in the tougher Division 2. (Unfortunately, all three teams lost on Wednesday night, so Healdsburg High's winter sports season is officially over.)

More students are turning up for wrestling this year, as coach Scott Weidemier’s effort to bring Healdsburg back into the ranks of local powerhouse teams gathers momentum...

Last Friday night, in front of an excited and anxious home crowd, the Healdsburg Varsity Football team lost to the Terra Linda Trojans, unable to put an end to their three-game losing streak. The Hounds, who are now 3-5 overall, played an emotional game, especially in the second half, but their 28-19 loss to Terra Linda gives them a 0-4 record in league play.
