Senior Night is always about more than basketball. Yes, the scoreboard matters. The season matters. The standings matter. But nights like Friday are really about something deeper: recognition, gratitude, and the rare privilege of watching a group of young athletes become something larger than a roster. The Lady Dons did all of that, and then some. In a gym filled…
What a fun and electric night for the ACA wrestling program as we loaded up the caravan with the entire team (30+ wrestlers) and rolled uphill to Camplindo. A friendly crosstown rivalry, familiar faces, familiar mats, and the quiet confidence that comes from strength in numbers. The whistle blew. The circle tightened. And match by match, Acalanes answered. Big wins…
Acalanes delivered a gritty, high-energy road performance Monday afternoon, battling through a physical game and executing late to earn a 48–42 win over Campolindo in a tightly contested rivalry matchup. Acalanes set the tone early, jumping out to a 16–9 lead in the opening quarter behind aggressive defense and strong rebounding. Campolindo responded to keep the game tight heading into…
Away at cross-town rivals Mats last Thursday, our fighting Dons continued their winning streak (and undefeated league run). Long story short, Audrey Tseng (#4) put one in the back of the net in the first and another in the second for a beautifully balanced game, but let’s get to the details: The first goal came early to set the tone……
For something to remain a true rivalry, both sides have to win their share. And, to be blunt, Acalanes hadn’t held up its end of that bargain against Campolindo in a while. In fact, the Dons’ last win over the Cougars came back in 2017. The last time Acalanes beat Campolindo, TikTok hadn’t been invented and the iPhone X was…
The Acalanes JV boys traveled to the historic Presidio in San Francisco for a match that offered a stunning Golden Gate Bridge backdrop but a rocky start on the pitch.

The Acalanes JV soccer team hosted the Northgate Broncos on Thursday in a match defined by dominant possession and field position. A goal by Kaspar in the first half put the Dons on board early. Following the goal, Northgate attempted to pivot to a more offensive strategy. However, the Acalanes backline remained disciplined and composed. Every Broncos counter-attack was met…
We opened the week locked in, in a collar and elbow war with Miramonte, back and forth like a chess match on the mat. Arm drags, sprawls, late escapes, nothing separated us. It came down to the final match of the night. One last scramble. One last shot. This time, the whistle didn’t fall in our favor. But we had…
Acalanes came up short in a 2–0 loss to University High School on a picture-perfect afternoon in the Presidio, battling to the final whistle against a strong Red Devils squad. The Dons defended well early, with Bryan Lurie keeping University off the scoreboard for much of the first half with several quality saves. Harry Zimmerman and Aidan Parnell helped hold off repeated attacks along the back line, while Zachary…
