No turf war for DHS girls today
Folsom High School is a dangerous team as it is, but the Bulldogs are even more lethal on their home field. And that’s why Davis High girls soccer coach Allen Carlson is thankful today’s first round of the Sac-Joaquin Section Division I Playoffs will be played at Yudin Field, instead of the artificial surface in Folsom. It’s been so long that the Blue Devils have lost at Yudin, Carlson can’t recall the last time it happened.

Devils found their mojo
The Davis High lacrosse team finished off a rocky season in style and won its first Senior Night game in six years.

Zoe Schladow had two goals and two assists for a DHS team that won six of its final seven games.
