Kryn Masutani named WSC-MVP
By Spencer Vaishville Sports Editor The Cougars are down two runs with two runners on in the final inning of the game with Kryn Masutani at the plate. People in the stands are screaming “Hawaii, Hawaii!” Is it a tidal wave? Is it a volcano erupting? No, it’s even more dangerous—they’re cheering for their favorite shortstop who is stepping into the batter’s box. The pitch comes from the Ventura pitcher, and Masutani clobbers the ball over the wall in right-center [...]

Cuesta basketball star Alyssa Palma signs with Adams State
By Spencer Vaishville Sports Editor After a spectacular 2013 season with Cuesta’s basketball team that helped bring the Cougars to their best finish and first playoff game since 2008, Alyssa Palma was given a full-ride scholarship at Adams State College, Colo. Surrounded by friends, family, teammates, and her coaches (though, she would argue the ladder two are essentially equivalent to the first two), Palma anxiously waited for head coach Ron Barba to finish applauding her seemingly-endless accomplishments. After many great [...]

Walk-off home run provides split with Santa Barbara
By Spencer Vaishville Sports Editor The Cuesta Cougars split a double header with the Santa Barbara City College Vaqueros on Thursday that saw an exciting ending in game one.

Intimidating stance helps secure walk-off win
By Spencer Vaishville Sports Editor Pierce College, from Los Angeles, struck early in the first inning on an error at third base that gave up a run, but Cuesta struck back with a run of their own to tie the game on a sac-fly by Zack Domingues that brought home Marco Murillo. Two errors by Cuesta in the top of the second inning quickly gave the lead back to Pierce, who added another run in the fourth inning to make [...]

Cougars fall 11-9 after unlucky start
By Spencer Vaishville Staff Writer After quickly falling behind 8-0 by the second-inning, the Cuesta Cougars made a significant comeback but ultimately fell just short in Friday’s 11-9 loss to the Saddleback Gauchos. The Cougars seemed to be cursed with two outs because every run in the first two innings came with two outs. Believe it or not, the Gauchos were able to add a two-run homerun to cap their five-run first-inning that put the Cougars in a deep hole. [...]
