    Sports Briefs

    Hey, coaches!

    Athletic directors at the area high schools were recently sent packets to distribute to spring sports coaches. In the packets were questionnaires for coaches to complete, along with letters requesting information, rosters and schedules for the upcoming 2002 season.

    Coaches are encouraged to return the information to the newspaper as soon as possible so that we can begin coverage of the spring season. For additional information, call Dick Sparrer at 408.354-3110, ext. 31.

    Rowing to wins

    The Los Gatos Rowing Club made a big splash in the first regattas of the 2002 season.

    The junior novice rowers opened the year in the 14-team field March 2 at Lake Merced, and the women's 4 boat topped a list of several Gatos squads finishing in the top three by pulling to a first-place finish.

    A day later, the Los Gatos varsity finished first in the three-team competition at Redwood Shores. The men's and women's lightweight boats each finished first to lead the Gatos effort.

    Great Race

    There's not much time to prepare, so runners had better step up the pace if they hope to compete in the annual Great Race, a 4-mile race from Saratoga to Los Gatos.

    More than 2,500 participants are expected for the event, which will wrap up with festivities in downtown Los Gatos. The race is sponsored by the Los Gatos Rotary Club.

    Lacrosse camp

    Stanford coach Joe Christie will host a lacrosse camp April 8-11 for beginner to intermediate players ages 8-14.

    Christie, a teacher at Redwood Middle School, will team with Redwood teacher and athletic director Brian Senior to put on the camp in Saratoga.

    For more information, call the Saratoga Community Center at 408.868.1248.
