Baseball-

Burbank 13 Arcadia 3 (Fri)

The Bulldogs blew the game wide open in the fourth inning sending 15 batters to the plate scoring 10 runs on nine hits including home runs from Angel Roman (solo), Angel Villagran (grand slam) and Sam McKinnon (2-run home run). A 3-3 game quickly became a 13-3 mercy rule win after five innings. McKinnon (2 for 3, two runs, two RBI’s), Chris Okimoto (3 for 3, two runs), and Dylan Mersola (2 for 4, two RBI’s) led the way behind Villagran who threw five innings giving up eight hits and two earned runs. Burbank improves to 14-8 and 10-2 in league and remains tied with CV for first place.

Burroughs 12 Glendale 0 (Fri)

Daniel Barraza threw a one-hitter as the Indians improved to 15-10 overall and 9-3 in league. Brian Pozos went 2 for 3 with two RBI’s, two runs scored and a triple. Jimmy Cramer was 2 for 4 with two RBI’s and Luis Pereyra contributed two RBI’s and two runs scored.

Burbank 5 Pasadena 2 (Wed)

The Bulldogs score three runs in the third off RBI singles from Angel Villagran, Ian McKinnon and Angel Roman. They add two more runs in the six sparked by Ricky Perez’ single, stolen bases of second and third, and run scored. Gavin Bushey (win) and Joey Bogenschutz combine on a six-hitter and allow only one earned run.

Crescenta Valley 4 Burroughs 2 (Wed)

Burroughs was unable to hold onto an early 2-0 lead and dropped a crucial league game to visiting Crescenta Valley, 4-2.

The Indians plated single runs in the second and third innings. In the second, Patrick Christopher drew a two-out walk, moved to third on a double by Akira Abderrahman and scored on an errant pickoff attempt. Miles Haddad drove in the third-inning run with a gap double that scored Aidan Anding from first to put the Indians ahead 2-0 after three.

Starter Luis Pereyra cruised through the first four innings, but ran into trouble in the fifth, surrendering three runs–two on a double by Ted Boeke and one on a single by Michael Russo–which put the Falcons ahead 3-2. Pereyra finished the day with three earned runs on three hits, three walks and tallied seven strikeouts but took the loss.

He was relieved by Brandon Ortega, who went an inning and a third, giving up one run on a bloop double over the first baseman’s head. Daniel Barraza finished the game for the Indians, striking out a pair to strand two runners and keep the score at 4-2 headed to the home half of the seventh.

Crescenta Valley 4 Burbank 1 (Tues)

The Bulldogs struggled at the plate and on the field with the loss to CV on the road. John White collected two hits and an RBI and Angel Roman had the other hit as Burbank was limited to three singles on the afternoon by pitcher Brian Gadsby. Angel Villagran threw five innings allowing only one earned run and four hits. Burbank committed two costly errors which aided in the Falcons win.

Burroughs 13 Muir 1 (Tues)

The Indians moved into a four-way tie atop the league standings with the easy win against the Mustangs.

Softball-

Burbank 1 Arcadia 0 (Fri)

The Bulldogs won their first title since 1987 behind a no-hitter thrown by Caitlyn Brooks. She tossed a complete game striking out 11 batters and walking two. Allyson Capili, pinch-running for Kaitlin Brooks who singled, scored on an RBI single to left field by Julia Duarte. Bridgette Pisa had three hits on the afternoon. Burbank is now 22-2 and 12-0 in league.

Burroughs 9 Glendale 2 (Fri)

The Indians rolled behind the efforts of Delaney Nicol and Kaitlin Okimoto. Nicol went 2 for 3 with two runs scored, three RBI’s and a home run. Okimoto was 3 for 4 with two RBI’s, a run scored and a double. Brice Edrington and Cheyenne Steward combined on a six-hitter as Burroughs improved to 17-7 overall and 9-3 in league.

Burbank 11 Pasadena 1 (Wed)

The Bulldogs clinch a share of their first league title since 1987. Lily Winn went 3 for 3 with three RBI’s and a double and Bridgette Pisa went 2 for 4 with three RBI’s and a double. Ashley Russo came in relief of Caitlyn Brooks and threw four innings allowing one hit and one run while striking out three.

Crescenta Valley 10 Burroughs 7 (Wed)

The Bulldogs came back for the second game in a row winning on the road at Arcadia. Trailing 2-0 at the top of the sixth inning, Burbank struck for two runs. John White and Dylan Mersola singled to open the inning. Harrison Hernandez crushed a ball to deep left field for a double and two RBI’s.

An inning later, the Bulldogs continued their momentum. With runners on first and second, Mersola came through again with a single to left field scoring Chris Okimoto. After an intentional walk to Hernandez to load the bases, Hector Rodriguez drew a walk bringing home the game’s final run and a 4-2 win.

Mersola went 2 for 4 with an RBI and had two dazzling plays at shortstop. Angel Villagran threw six gutsy innings allowing no runs and only one hit while striking out three batters. Ricky Perez came in to close the game out and get the save.

 

Burroughs 8 Crescenta Valley 7

Burroughs picked up an 8-7 win in a wild Pacific League game Tuesday night at Stengel Field in Glendale and in the process took over first place.

Miles Haddad led the way for the Indians, driving in a pair of runs on three hits, and picking up the win in relief despite not throwing a pitch. Haddad entered the game with two out in the sixth and the score tied with runners at the corners. He picked the runner off at third to send the game to the seventh tied 5-5.

The Indians bats came alive with two outs in the top of the seventh. Aiden Anding hit a two-out single followed by a Chris Davies walk. Haddad then broke the tie with a single, and Patrick Christopher was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Cameron Rodriguez followed with a two-run single to give Burroughs the 8-5 lead.

Crescenta Valley pushed a pair across in the bottom half of the frame, but Luis Pereyra induced a game-ending groundout to shortstop Brian Pozos, stranding the potential tying run at second base.

Pozos also finished the day with four hits, a pair of RBI and a stolen base.

Daniel Barraza got the start for the Indians, going 5 2/3 innings and giving up only a single earned run, walking two and collecting a pair of strikeouts.

Burroughs improved to 10-7 overall and 4-0 in league.

Trailing 7-0 after the top half of the third inning, Burbank rallied to pull out a thrilling 8-7 win. The Bulldogs scored three runs in the bottom of the third courtesy of an RBI single by Dylan Mersola and a two-run single by John White. Two more BHS runs were tacked on in the fourth inning.

With the bases loaded and nobody out in the bottom of the sixth, Angel Roman brought home an RBI on a fielder’s choice to cut the lead to 7-6. Mersola then doubled to left field to tie the game at seven apiece. After a walk to load the bases and an out on the ensuing batter, White walked and forced in the winning run for Burbank.

White and Roman each had three RBI’s on the afternoon with Mersola adding two of his own.

Joe Bogenschutz got the win as he allowed two runs over 5 1/3 innings. Bogenschutz struck out five, walked none and gave up seven hits. Perez closed the door on Pasadena in the seventh as Burbank improved to 7-7 overall and 3-1 in league, a game behind first-place Burroughs.

Fresh off its tournament title in La Jolla during spring break, Burroughs continued its winning ways with a dominating 10-2 victory against Pasadena Tuesday afternoon at Olive Park. It was the seventh consecutive victory for the Indians who improved to 10-4 overall and 2-0 in league.

Cheyenne Steward threw six innings allowing only one run on six hits as she earned her sixth win of the season. Michelle Santiago had a huge day at the plate going 3 for 4 with a home run, three RBI’s and three runs scored.

“We are doing really good. It’s going to be a good season,” Santiago said. “I think it is hard work that pays off in the end. We work hard all the time and I think we can take league again.”

Burroughs jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the second inning. Leading 4-1 in the bottom of the sixth inning, the Indians broke the game wide open as they hammered three home runs and tallied six runs.

Home runs by Santiago, Kaitlin Okimoto (three RBI’s) and Lahela Bautista in a matter of six batters ended the hopes of the Bulldogs.

“That inning was great because we finally started to wait on some pitches and not be overly aggressive,” Burroughs Coach Doug Nicol said. “We waited and got our pitches.”

Steward has filled in wonderfully in the absence of the injured Brice Edrington. Steward, who was sick during the trip to La Jolla but still played and pitched effectively, controlled the tempo of the game from the outset.

“I’m working hard and doing what I can. Overall we did great,” Steward said.

“She did well. She’s been sick so her energy was down a little bit and her velocity wasn’t normally where it would be,” Nicol added. “But I thought she did a good job of hitting her spots. And she had good defense behind her. She will be even more effective once she gets her strength back.”

 

 

 

 

Kevin Hoang, Burroughs Tennis

What is a season without a little adversity?

To achieve its goal of becoming Pacific League champions for the first time since 2011, the Burroughs boys’ tennis team will have to overcome the season-ending loss of Garrett Auproux, the two-time defending league champion in singles play. Auproux suffered a broken leg in a recent junior tournament in Palm Springs.

Auproux was the catalyst for an Indians squad that reached the CIF Southern Section Division II semifinals the last two seasons. With Auproux out, Burroughs will turn to senior captain Kevin Hoang to lead them to their desired destination.

“Of course we are all concerned. And we all wish him the best of luck,” Hoang said. “We tried to not let it get to us so much but it is a tough loss. But I’m sure we will get through it.”

Hoang, 18, is a four-year letterman who plays alongside partner Wen Yao Lin to form the Indians’ number one doubles team. Auproux was the inspirational leader for JBHS delivering pre-game speeches to get his team fired up for its matches. Now Hoang will take the lead role to motivate his teammates.

“He gave us pep talks before and we are going to miss that. I’m going to have to take that role. Now I get to talk to the team and pump them up kind of,” said Hoang after Burroughs defeated Hoover, 13-5, a few weeks back. “I tried today. I think it worked.”

Senior Michael Whelan, junior Calvin Fox and sophomore Sawyer Patterson will fill in for Auproux in singles action. Rounding out the doubles teams are Steve Shin and Eduardo Ilano and partners Jacob Kim and Elliott Lagman.

Hoang, a mild-mannered young man with a strong tennis game, said the team will rally around each other and step up in Auproux’s absence. As captain, it all starts with Hoang and trickles down to the rest of the team.

“I’ve known him since he was a little guy in my tennis camps. He is a very easy going guy,” said Burroughs Coach Roy Bernhardt. “He is a super sport. He’s always here. He’s always at practice. Always doing workouts.”

The loss of Auproux comes during a year when Burroughs was moved up to Division one. Hoang feels the team will be fine because of their experience as well as team camaraderie.

“We are all really close because most of the people came back from last year,” Hoang said. “Our main goal is to win the league this year and I think we can do it. We are really strong this year.”

Burroughs is currently undefeated in league at 6-0 after defeating Burbank, 12-6.

“They will do fine. They feel bad for him (Auproux) but they know they are a strong team,” Bernhardt added.

Burroughs is half way to re-claiming the league title. Adversity always brings out the best in a champion.

Burroughs High School Jazz Ensemble Presents Annual Swing Night

One of the biggest fundraisers of the year for the JBHS IMA, Swing Night, showcases the John Burroughs High School Jazz Ensemble. The Jazz Ensemble will play the finest culmination of big band music that months of study has prepared them for.

As attendees arrive, the opening band, White Bow Tie Society, will serenade the crowd with a set of traditional jazz music. White Bow Tie Society is comprised of 6 members of the Jazz Ensemble who study and play traditional jazz, Latin and funk.

This special night then launches off with a Swing Dance lesson taught by Burroughs alumna and professional dance instructor Linda Shoemake. Then use what youʼve learned to swing the night away to live music all performed by the Jazz Ensemble. Peruse the opportunity baskets featuring a variety of prizes that will be raffled during the event. To keep your energy up there will be an assortment of tasty hor dʼoeuvres.

The IMAʼs goal is to raise funds to help with costs involved for the Jazz Ensemble to participate in the Central Coast Jazz Festival and the Reno Jazz Festival, among others, in the coming months.

This night of fun all takes place Saturday, January 19th at the Friendship Auditorium, 3201 Riverside Drive, in Los Feliz. Tickets are available for purchase through any JBHS IMA member or online at www.jbhsima.org.

Burroughs Band Participates in Liberty Bowl Festivities

The John Burroughs High School band headed to Memphis, Tennessee right after Christmas for a fabulous musical adventure. Two years ago the award winning JBHS band participated in the Sugar Bowl halftime show, and this year they will be showcased at the Liberty Bowl. An elite squad of approximately 50 of the band program’s most dedicated students, from Freshman to Seniors, will proudly represent John Burroughs High School on the national stage.

“We are really excited to once again have this honor,” stated Tana Barnett, Director of Bands. “It is so great for the kids to see how their hard work in the classroom and all those lonely hours practicing pays off in a performance like the Liberty Bowl.”

To give the students as much experience as possible, the entire four days will be jam packed with musical activities. A visit to Memphis isn’t complete without taking in Graceland. They will get a sense of national history at the Civil Rights Museum, and music history at the Rock and Soul Museum. “We really pride ourselves in giving students in our Instrumental Music Association program a depth of music experience,” explained JBHS IMA President Robert Jung.

The Liberty Bowl will be held December 31 and then students will welcome in the New Year at a special celebration organized for the student musicians performing at the Liberty Bowl.

Upon their return, the music program will turn its focus to concert season, where students perform in one of three bands: Concert, Symphonic, and Wind Ensemble, as well as in small ensembles and solo performances. “We try to give the students a broad exposure to music. Those students who choose to continue with music in college have a strong foundation, and those who enjoy music through high school gain a greater appreciation and understanding about music,” added Ms. Barnett.

Other upcoming activities the Burbank community is invited to attend include:

Swing Night – January 19, 2013 – come enjoy and even dance to the Big Band music of yore, all provided by JBHS musicians. Sweeney Todd – February 8th-10th – JBHS Drama Production, featuring live music from the IMA; Festival Prelude, April 4th – JBHS IMA Free Spring Concert;
Burbank On Parade, April 13th – see the Marching Band strut their stuff in the City of Burbank’s annual parade; LIVE at the Burroughs Bowl, May 18th – IMA perform scores from various feature movies.

The stage was alive with singers, dancers, mermaids and even girls dancing the Can-Can. The Burroughs VMA presented their Burroughs On Broadway the last couple of nights to great crowds in the Burroughs Auditorium.

Group numbers were preformed several solos. Numbers from favorite shows such as The Little Mermaids, Evita and others can been seen, and you can see why the preforming arts in Burbank schools is so important. With budget cuts approaching, programs such as this can use your help, and you can enjoy a really family orientated show with your neighbors kids on stage.
