SAMOHI — Garrett Frick has decided to aim high. The senior forward who helped lead Santa Monica High School’s boys basketball team to the semifinals of the CIF-SS playoffs in February has committed to play ball for the Air Force Academy.
SAMOHI — Tossing eight innings of two-hit ball is usually enough to notch a victory. Santa Monica High School’s Logan Whitchurch (3-2, 1.87 ERA) just so happened to be on the wrong side as the Vikings lost an extra inning Ocean League game to Beverly Hills, 2-1, on Tuesday.

SAMOHI — The streak lives on. Santa Monica High School’s softball team’s impressive Ocean League consecutive game shutout streak is alive and well following an 18-0 win over Morningside on Thursday.

SAMOHI — It’s obvious a pitcher is good when he shuts out his opponent through six innings and all anybody could talk about after the game was how off he was.
