Lady Rams have chance at playoffs Wednesday, basketball team
0-3
GILROY
The Gavilan men’s soccer team wrapped up their 2008 season with a 3-0 loss to Evergreen Valley College on Friday, and finished the year with an 0-12-2 record in the Coast Conference, 4-14-2 overall.
“We played fairly well against them,” Gavilan men’s soccer coach Albert Marques said. Evergreen Valley, at 17-3-3 overall, is ranked No. 5 in the state of California.
Gavilan battled early, though, keeping the game scoreless until about 10 minutes remaining in the first half when Evergreen Valley pocketed a pair of goals to take a 2-nil lead at the break.
They added a third score late in the second half as well.
“With everything we went through at the beginning of the year, we finished fairly well,” Marques said. “We got a couple ties, lost a close one to Skyline College and held our own against Evergreen.
“Hopefully, we can capitalize on that next year.”

The Gavilan’s women’s volleyball team beat Hartnell in three games (25-14, 25-13, 25-17) Friday night in Gilroy. A win in Wednesday’s match at West Valley College could send the Lady Rams (16-10 overall, 6-3 Coast Conference) to the playoffs.
