Flag Football Calvary’s Christian’s flag football team opened its season with back-to-back wins over Coastal Canyon League rival Carlthorp. In the league opener, Luke Mullan returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown and the Cougars went on to post a 20-8 victory. Darren Rosenberg ran for a touchdown and threw a fourth-quarter touchdown pass to Mullan. Calvary safety Justin Jenkins made a key sack on fourth down to preserve the Cougars’ victory. Last Wednesday, the Cougars won again, 19-14, when Justin Jenkins caught Rosenberg’s ‘hail mary’ pass for the game-winning touchdown in the final minute. Rosenberg scored on a punt return and rushed for a 50-yard score. Key blocks by Scotty Sanford and Zach Hernandez set up Calvary’s two touchdowns from scrimmage. Girls Volleyball The Cougars beat rival Brentwood 21-25, 25-18, 15-13, last Tuesday in a Junior Delphic League match. Solid spiking by Calvary’s Christina McHugh, Cati Hance and Maya Macpherson, along with the all-around play of Genevieve Dash and the digging of Catherine Price and Hilary Dahl kept momentum in Calvary’s favor in the decisive third game. Cougar Glenna Roberts helped her team with consistent setting and hustle. Two days later, the Cougars again rallied to a league win, this time over Harvard-Westlake by scores of 14-25, 25-15, 15-8. Hilary Dahl and Savannah Holte served well in the second game and Price made a key block to thwart a Wolverines’ rally. Roberts inspired her team with her athleticism and Cati Hance served five aces in the decisive third game.
