Athletics Roundup: Senior Night for Boys Basketball; Winter Sports Make Push for NCS Bids

The Dublin High School Varsity Boys Basketball team honored its four seniors on Friday night, playing in their final home regular season game for the Gaels. T.J. Costello, Thomas Labat, Carmelo Clarke-Tarver, and Arjun Johal all started for Dublin, as they came away with a victory over Livermore in front of an enthusiastic crowd in the Sports Complex.

Clarke-Tarver led the way with a season-high 28 points, including four 3-pointers. Johal made 3 of his own from beyond the arc to finish with a season-high 11 points, while Labat added 8 points and Costello contributed 7 points for Dublin to cap a successful week in which the squad posted three home victories.

The Varsity Girls Soccer team also went 3-0 this week, by posting wins over Amador Valley (2-1), Foothill (1-0), and Castro Valley (1-0). Dublin is having its best season in nearly a decade by improving its record to 11-4-2 overall and 4-3-1 in EBAL heading into a week with two more away contests at Granada (February 1st) and San Ramon Valley (February 3). The shutout over the Trojans on Saturday afternoon was also the 10th clean sheet the squad has posted defensively this season.

Another team which has showcased defensive dominance this season is the Varsity Girls Basketball team. They also capped a successful week by going 2-1 on the road, including a 39-26 win over Foothill on Saturday night. The win over the Falcons was also the 8th time this season that the Gaels have held their opponents under 30 points. Dublin bolstered its chances of making NCS by improving their record to 10-8 overall. The Gaels return home this week to face Monte Vista (February 1st) before concluding the regular season with Senior Night in the Sports Complex against Dougherty Valley (February 3rd).

The Varsity Boys Soccer team also has two home contests this week in Gaels Stadium against Granada on February 1st followed by Senior Night versus San Ramon Valley on February 3rd. Both matches against the Matadors and Wolves start at 6:00. Following a stretch of posting three consecutive ties, the Gaels still have an outside chance at an EBAL crown after defeating Foothill 1-0 on Thursday to improve to 5-1-3 in league play.

Meanwhile, the Dublin High School Wrestling team wrapped up its EBAL schedule of dual meets this week as it prepares for the league tournament (February 11-12). Despite losing at home 48-36 to Foothill, the Gaels recorded pins by Henry Baalman, Christian Carandang, Bradley Freitas, Kavin Glidden, and Dakodah Hazen
