Baseball secures 3rd place; softball team on verge of repeat

Healdsburg's boys basketball team remains without a win in league play this year, 0-4, and only three wins on the season against 15 losses, while the Rio Vista boys team is 6-7 overall, 1-4 in the league.

It was only last weekend, in a tournament in St. Helena, that the Greyhound girls got their first win, a  2-0 shutout over Ferndale. But at least it was a win—and if the volleyball team is burdened by a 1-11 record so far this year, new coach Jonathan Nuttall hopes the win helps turn the tide.

“Greatest loss of my career,” Coach Mike Domenichelli said. “The players gave it everything they had. The crowd was electric and it was like playing at Yankee Stadium. It was just unfortunate that someone had to lose.”

All-League selections for North Bay – Redwood division have been announced, and other divisions as well. The Healdsburg High winter sports teams can be proud of their showing in this post-season list, selected by the coaches of the league teams themselves.

The judges selected senior Max Morris to the top tier as “Specialist of the Year,” based on his standout performance as kickoff receiver, as well as tight end and defensive linebacker.

“Scholarship Night is truly a testament to the generosity of the community of Healdsburg and how much our town cares about our young people,” said Shelley Anderson, the school’s scholarship coordinator. “Because of our robust and bountiful scholarship program and donors, many of our HHS graduates are able to get their four-year degrees with minimal or no debt.”
