Rivals The Bishop’s School and La Jolla Country Day School always seem to put on a good performance no matter what the sport is. That was the case last Saturday as The Bishop’s School defeated LJCD (1-1 tie in regulation) in a penalty kick shoot out to capture the CIF Division IV boys soccer championship. The Bishop’s School opened the scoring off a throw-in scramble early in the second half with a goal by Kyle Jester. LJCD’s Danny Rogers picked a great time to score his first goal of the year midway through the stanza, knocking in a direct kick by Lee Klitzner to make it 1-1. With Justin Peabody and Tyler Evans controlling the defense for the Knights, and Stefano Vidali, Jesters and Adam Malcywietz causing countless problems for the LJCD defense, the game went to penalties. With countless Bishop’s screaming his name, Peabody saved three of the first four penalties to send the passionate Bishop’s fans into a frenzy with the title. Bishop’s School had advanced to the championship game following a 2-1 win over Mater Dei last week in the semifinals. “While this was a disappointing loss, it was certainly a great game and a spectacular season,” LJCD head coach Jerry Fleischhacker said. LJCD reached the finals following a 5-2 upset victory over top-seeded Holtville. In that win, LJCD got scores from Ryan French (two goals), Klitzner (two goals) and Alex Fleischhacker. LJCD head coach Jerry Fleischhacker also credited the play of goalie Michael Bailey, Alistair Dobke, Philip Poyhonen and Danny Rogers. Coronado defeats LJHS girls In the Division III girls championship March 6, Coronado got goals from Stephanie Hamilton and Danielle Gillberg to post a 2-0 shutout over La Jolla High. After starting the game very slowly, La Jolla picked it up in the second half, head coach Kristin Jones said. “The majority of the second half was played in their half,” Jones said. “Defensively, Jessica Wood, Rosie Jaye, Katie Bethard and Cortney Volger all kept it tight in the second half. They battled and changed the momentum for us. Melanie Lock and Ellen Latta contributed most of our offensive punch.”
