Spring Sport Season Starts February 5

The following teams kick off the spring sports season with tryouts scheduled through the week of February 5.

BASEBALL

Tryouts for all players hoping to make freshman, JV, and varsity teams will be held on February 5 through 10. On February 5, players will meet in the stands of the varsity field at 3:30pm in full baseball attire. Winter sports athletes will be provided tryout opportunities once their winter season is complete.

BOYS’ GOLF

Athletes will meet at the large putting green at the Moraga Country Club, located on the corner of Moraga Way and St. Andrews Drive at 3:30pm from February 5 through 8. Players are expected to adhere to the country club’s dress code and wear slacks or golf shorts and a collared shirt during tryouts. Due to the expected increase in athletes interested in participating as a result of the PE waiver offered to freshmen and sophomores, the team plans to have cuts.

Tryouts will be held Monday through Wednesday February 5 through 7 on the stadium from 7:00 to 9:00pm.

GIRLS’ LACROSSE

For players not currently playing a winter sport, tryouts begin on February 5, and will continue through February 9 from 4:00pm-6:00pm. The list of players that have made it past the 1st week of cuts will be posted on the softball website no later than February 9. The 2nd round of cuts will take place after this posting, and will include players that participated in winter sports. All athletes must tryout in full softball gear.
