Big Weekend for Tartan Athletics
St. Margaret's made some noise around the county to close out a busy week.
Boys Basketball
St. Margaret's took on rival Sage Hill School on the road Friday evening and came away with a 61-43 win over the Lightning. Avenging an early season 76-72 double-OT loss, the Tartans were led by Russell Frye (16 pts.), Charlie Wohlgemuth (11 pts.) and Dylan Cormac (10 pts.).
"It was a great night for us on the road at Sage," said head coach Chris Nordstrom. "Being able to bounce back from the double-OT loss to them earlier in the year demonstrated the character of our team."
The Tartans will next travel to face Pacifica Christian on Monday, April 26. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m.
Girls Basketball
The Tartans walked off the court a winner Friday evening on a Mary Smith buzzer-beater, downing Mission Viejo 39-38. Tiana Pavia set up the pass that led to Smith's game-winner. Alice Korolev (12 pts.) and Mandy Taylor (11 pts.) kept pace for St. Margaret's.

The Tartans delivered a big win Friday evening, downing a talented Corona del Mar squad 9-8 in an overtime thriller. Owen Binder (2g) slotted the game-winner on an assist by Matt Groeninger (3g, 2a) with 2:22 left to play in the overtime period in the match-up between two top 10 ranked teams.
Will Stahl had himself a game with four goals and one assist, forcing the game into overtime with 1:21 left in regulation. Riley Chester added a crucial goal to tie it at seven goals apiece in the fourth quarter.
Goaltender Sebastian Chicas recorded 11 saves in the win.
"What an exciting win over a talented and well-coached CDM squad. I was so proud of our guys for how they stuck together and stayed resilient in a hard-fought game where they found themselves tied or down a goal for much of the contest," said head coach Brian Kelly. " Late in the 4th quarter and overtime, our guys just made winning plays in between the lines and on both ends of the field."
