The Dons varsity baseball team spoiled senior night for the Clayton Valley Charter baseball team. Clayton Valley entered the game tied for 1st place in DAL, boasting both a strong lineup and pitching staff with several D1 commits. Someone forgot to tell the Dons they should be concerned. The Dons got things started early, putting up 3 runs in their first…
Can’t explain it…but if you were a Don (or parent or a fan) on the Acalanes baseball field you could FEEL the homerun hit by Colin Norstad. There is not really anything else to talk about… what else happened in the game?!! Who can remember after that hit! Jake Boselli (pitched for four innings) and Miller Smith (closed it out)…
The JV Dons fired up the offense in the first inning, when an error scored two runs for Acalanes. Acalanes Dons JV put up five runs in the fourth inning. Acalanes Dons JV big bats were led by Tyler Worthington, Aidan Beers, Colin Norstad, Mason Michlitsch, and Jake Boselli, all knocking in runs in the inning. Henry Souza was on…
Tuesday in Benicia, there was great weather and a great win for the Dons over the Benicia Panthers, 9 to 6. Thursday comes, the weather surprising changed quickly with innings played in the rain and even a 10 minute delay of game due to rain. Besides raindrops falling on the field, so were Panther runs. The Dons fell behind early…

Coco Gannon followed the next trip down the floor…
On a sunny but cool day at Acalanes Tuesday afternoon, Benjy Braunstein (jr) scattered 7 hits across 7 innings, and rode a 6 run 3rd inning from his offense to pickup the win. It was the first complete game of the season for the Dons. Benjy’s defense was very solid for the most part, including a great diving stop by Brady…
Both Acalanes Dons and Benicia Cougars had their offenses going on Tuesday, but the JV Dons eventually prevailed 9-6. In the first inning, Benicia got their offense started and for the first innings the scoreboard read Cougars 2 Dons 1. But that did not last… Things changed in the fourth inning, Henry Souza hit a single to right field, Jake…
After a rough couple games, the Dons needed a bounce back win and they got one Monday against Las Lomas. Ethan Rowland (jr) started on the mound for the Dons. After cruising through the 1st inning, Las Lomas started to get to Ethan in the 2nd, putting their first four runners on and plating 1. With second and third and 1…
