Our BCL-West basketball season is coming to a close.  Our boys varsity team is still battling for a spot in the BCL-West playoffs and the NCS Tournament and if all goes well, will continue to play throughout February. Our girls play their final game tonight (2/11/11) vs conference rival University.  This has been a long season for our girls, but 11 of our 12 players are set to return for the 2011-2012 campaign so our hopes are high.

While hoops is coming to a close, SPRING sports are underway and we are BUSY on Page St.

• Our Boys Lacrosse team looks to improve on their first ever BCL Playoff birth.  They have senior starters at every position and we'll ask much of our underclassmen as well.  (Watch out for our SUPER FROSH, Max and Sigi)
• Our Boys Baseball team looks to continue their tradition of excellence and will rely on a solid mix of veteran players, (Gabe, DA and Robert) as well as some younger players.  As always with Urban baseball, our boys will learn from Noah and Dustin and will learn much about life through the game of baseball.
• Our Girls Soccer program is bustling with energy.  With over 40 girls out for Varsity and JV soccer, their are high hopes for our Lady Blues. Last season ended with a heartbreaking loss in a shootout to Marin Academy, but the Blues showed they can play with anyone and look to build on the 2010 campaign.
• Our Softball team looks to repeat as BCL-West Champs and battle for a D5 NCS title.
• Our Track and Field team has over 30 members, a new high for us, and we look to continue our success on the track and build upon a great 2010 season.
• Boys Volleyball is showing incredible resilience right off the bat as we struggle to find gym space and time during the end of basketball season.  The boys are working hard on and off the court and look to once again make the BCL playoffs.
• Our Co-Ed Fencing team is preparing to battle San Francisco AAA opponents and they have been working hard for weeks.  Both girls and boys teams look to advance to the City Championship this year.
• Lastly, our golf squad has been taking advantage of this incredibly mild winter weather. Lead by Super Soph, Alex P, the boys look to regain the BCL-West title
