Lady Cavs go to Berkeley
The Lady Cavs are on their way to Berkeley to play the 26-7 McClatchy Lions for the State Division 1 Girls Basketball Championship. The game is Friday night, March 27th at 6:00PM at Haas Pavillion on the UC Berkeley campus. If you live on the Peninsula side of the Bay, we know how long it takes to get across the bridge especially on a Friday afternoon. If you are a denizen of the Oakland side, it's easy. See you there.
The Ladies won the Division 1 final against Ventura this way.

Newsletter Mistake
 As we all know, your Alumni newsletter makes an error from time to time. We did it again. We identified Chuck Hohn's '67 beautiful 1939 Ford Tudor as a 1937. Apologies, Chuck. Will there be a trophy specifically for an Alumni entry? Will someone be bringing a Plymouth Barracuda? Serra Alumni Continue to Return It's spring break for Cathy Ngyun '14 (on the left) and she brought UC Davis classmate Giulia Lubet to visit. Here they are with Booster Club President Carolyn Madera in the center. Carolyn is busy promoting the Booster Club Car Show to be held on April 25.
It's not spring break for Coach Marguet Miller '84 who stopped in for a lot of reasons. Marguet is currently Head Football Coach at West LA College. Here he is receiving his raffle ticket from Carolyn Madera for the Booster's Club Car Show. First prize for the raffle is a good one. 4th and 5th prizes could turn out to be better. Math Chair/Soccer Coach Rob Duffy on the left waits his turn for his ticket.
