MIDDLE SCHOOL ATHLETIC YEAR COMES TO A CLOSE
Another exciting year of AAA Middle School interscholastic athletics wrapped up with the All-City Track finals held May 3.  Congratulations not only to all our athletes and teams who won titles, but also to all those who put on the uniform and competed.  Many may not have taken home a medal or trophy, but they still put forth an effort and hopefully learned some life lessons along with the joy of participating!  And a BIG thanks to all our wonderful coaches who dedicate many hours to teaching not only the skills of their sport, but also instilling values of sportsmanship, teamwork, and dedication to a common goal.  Your efforts are appreciated.  So finally to all--have a great summer, and we'll see you back again in the fall for more action in the gym and on the field!

CO-CHAMPS IN GIRLS SOCCER The inaugural AAA Middle School Girls Soccer final held January 24 at Kezar Stadium ended in a draw!  Aptos and Presidio were tied 2-2 after 60 minutes of regulation.  An additional 20 minutes of overtime were played with neither team able to find the back of the net.  League Bylaws preclude the use of penalty kicks to decide the title, therefore the Tigers and Panthers were declared co-champions!  Congratulations to both squads on a very exciting and first ever Girls Soccer final!

CPR REGULATIONS
A notice to ALL Middle School coaches, CPR regulations have changed!  A child is now considered anyone 11 years of age or younger.  Since many middle school students are within this age range, ALL Middle School coaches MUST take both adult AND child CPR when renewing or obtaining certification for the first time.  Please take note of this when signing up for your next course.
