The bad news is that the freshmen lost a football game to Campolindo 20-12. The good news is that the Dons more than held their own in the trenches – on the offensive and defensive lines. This bodes well for the future. While it was an off day for the passing game, Acalanes ran the ball all over the place.…
Being perfect is not about that scoreboard out there, it’s not about winning. It’s about you, and your relationship to your family, yourself, and your friends. Being perfect is about being able to look your friends in the eye, and know that you didn’t let them down because you told them the truth. And that truth is that you did…
There are so many great quotes on losing: You can’t win unless you learn how to lose or Losing isn’t always the end, sometimes it becomes the beginning or I’ve learned that something constructive comes from every defeat. But losing by one little point, in the very intense end of the game , the only quote is Ouch! The Varsity…
The JV Don’s Football team was in action on Friday vs the Knights of Las Lomas. The 10 min car ride from Acalanes to the home team’s stadium in Walnut Creek took longer than it did for the Don’s to put away the Knights! Mason Zirkel took the opening kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown to start the game, and…
With key players out for the Dons, it was great to see other players step up and assume an expanded role. EITAN ROMICK filled in for KEEGAN GODDARD at running back and was spectacular. ROMICK ran effectively both between the tackles and outside on the option pitch for a total of 209 yards rushing. Wow! Awesome to see the offensive…

The team was fired up and ready to go, facing the Castlemont Knights from the OAL league with the stands packed to capacity and the homecoming crowd whipped into a frenzy. After a…
The JV Don’s continued to roll this week shutting out Castlemont High School with the score of 56 to 0. What a great way to cap off a amazing Homecoming Week! Everyone was wondering if the opposing team was even going to show up at first – Game time was scheduled for a 4:30 start, but because of a transportation…
The slant pass from quarterback DAVID GONZALES to wide receiver JB FROLICH has been a good play for the Dons this year. Against Heritage it was a great play as Acalanes rolled to a 26-0 halftime lead and beat Heritage by a final score of 38-26. GONZALES repeatedly found FROLICH on the slant in the first quarter and two times…
