A Message from Dr. Skrade
Meanwhile, SHC Athletics has enjoyed thrilling successes throughout the season. The girls volleyball team won the WCAL title and the CCS Open Division Championship, finishing in the top four ranked teams in all of Northern California. Our football team posted a thrilling comeback victory to secure the first leg of the Bruce-Mahoney and qualified for the CCS Playoffs for the second year in a row. Our Irish for a Day Program filled up within an hour, and thousands of people turned out at this year’s Open House. Such success is hard to keep a secret! Within these pages you will meet a few members of the Class of 2022 and also learn about SHC alumni whose career paths answer SHC’s call to Enter to Learn, Leave to Serve. You will get to know our talented new choral director and hear from SHC parents (both past and current), and so much more. We continue to live out this year’s theme as an extension of our school’s mission to provide the finest education in an inclusive Catholic community of faith.

class of 2022 KARINA COSBEY CAPEN ADES I chose SHC because it's a great school that offers so many opportunities. My sister already goes here, so I was able to experience SHC a lot. I’ve participated in Summer Institute camps, so that helped give me a taste of the school.
PAULA CAPULIN
I live close to SHC, and one of my mentors went here, so I knew it was a place that could help me succeed. One of my friends from the Boys & Girls Having to switch from one school to another Club was also acwas a bit nerve-wracking, especially since I cepted, so it was have always gone to public schools. I would nice to have someone to hang out with on say the transition to high school was quite smooth because I had so many opportunities the first day of school. Everybody at SHC is super nice. High school movies and tv shows to familiarize myself with SHC. usually show a lot of cliques and how popular I’m most surprised that my religion class is so kids bully other people, but here everyone is engaging. Coming in here I didn't really think friendly and kind to one another. I would like scripture a lot, but it turned out Right now, I am part of the Theater Tech to be the class I look forward to most. Mr. Wozniak makes it super fun and I really enjoy Crew and Art in Action. My favorite class is Advanced Algebra/Trigonometry because the learning about different beliefs. teacher is super nice. I actually understand Right now, I am in Concert Choir and the the material and the workload isn't difficult. Sports Medicine Club, and hopefully the musical and lacrosse next. I just can't wait to see what this school has in store for me!

FALL 2018
SHC had been my first choice since my brother came here, and I think especially academically, SHC is the best place to achieve my goals. As a ninth grader, I wasn’t expecting to feel so welcomed by the upperclassmen, especially during the first few days of class. My favorite class so far would probably have to be English, because it’s different from the style of learning I was used to in the eighth grade and allows for more discussion with the whole class. I’m most excited about meeting new people and trying new things, so that I can feel more accomplished when I graduate.
OLIVIA FLORES I chose SHC because I wanted a high quality education in a completely different environment from Napa, my hometown. I came for Irish for a Day and felt a great sense of community and knew that I wanted to be part of it. I was also selected to be a De Paul Scholar, an academic and enrichment program that provides students with additional opportunities to learn the humanities through the lens of social justice. Since History and English just happen to be my two favorite subjects, the program seemed to fit me well.
AUDREY HAMAGUCHI Transitioning from grammar school to high school was less stressful than I expected. All of my teachers eased everyone into our first year and made sure we started off on the right foot before kicking it into high gear. I also expected it to be hard to make friends, as I was the only one attending from my school in Napa, but everyone I’ve met has been really friendly which helped make my first couple of months a positive experience. One of the things that has surprised me is all of the fun SHC students have. I knew high school was more exciting than grammar school, but I didn't realize how much SHC promotes school spirit. I'm involved in T.U.F.F. Club, Lasallian Vincentian Youth, and the Book Society Club. I am also excited to be part of Women's Ensemble in SHC's Choral Program.
I love the atmosphere and community at SHC. When I visited for Irish for a Day, I felt welcomed and comfortable and continue to feel this way now. The amount of freedom we have has surprised me so far. I’ve had to really learn to organize my own schedule. Right now, I’m a member of the Knitting Club and I hope to play basketball. My favorite class is physics because of all of the experiments and labs we do. When I think about the years ahead of me at SHC I’m most excited to attend the Bruce-Mahoney games!
LUKE MUNCHUA
SHC has such a friendly environment. High school is very different My favorite class so far is World History. Mr. Hren from grammar school, makes sure that learning is a hands-on experience. and I realized that the We don't just take notes and have quizzes, we do teachers and adminprojects that express our creativity and imagination istrators are strict, but while learning a lot at the same time. we still get freedom. I’ve I am most excited about the travel opportunities really enjoyed making that SHC provides, such as the Oregon Shakespeare friends unexpectedly. Festival, VENAVER service immersion trips, and the One of my favorite possibility of a trip to France. SHC brings the world classes is World History because I learn things that to you which is something I know I can't find at I've never known, and Mr. Morgan is very funny. I’m other schools. really looking forward to school events especially sports, such as the Bruce-Mahoney.
QUENTIN POON SHC has great academic and athletic programs, but above all, it has a very positive and uplifting community. All the students and teachers are very welcoming and kind. My transition from grammar school to high school was difficult for me. I’m not going to lie and say it was easy. In the end, everything worked out and all my worries went away. Meeting new people came a lot easier than expected and the work is easy if you pay attention. I’m currently on the Cross Country Team and a member of the Magic Carpet Club. My favorite class is English. I’m not the best at English but my teacher, Ms. Pacatte, makes it more interesting and helps me whenever I need it. I also made a lot of friends in that class.

Associate Director of Admissions Jonathan Lim shares, “Our Instagram was created to connect prospective students and families with the latest admission-related information, and to give them a glimpse into life at SHC.” When decisions are sent in the spring, students and families are invited to tag @SHCadmissions and use #beSHCsf to let their friends and families know they are proud to join the SHC community!
Mahoney Scrapbook Goes Digital The family of Jerry Mahoney ’44 recently gifted SHC an original scrapbook of the SHC Hall of Famer’s athletic and military exploits. To preserve the aged document while giving access to its contents, the entire scrapbook was digitized and made into a slideshow. The slideshow is displayed on a monitor in the Main Lobby, directly next to the original scrapbook (right) and the fabled Bruce-Mahoney Trophy. Use the SHC|us app on this story to launch the presentation and learn more about Mahoney, a twosport star at Sacred Heart High School who perished at sea during WWII.

Thanks again to all the generous benefactors that made this project a reality.
MADDAN’S CORNER It was just shy of 7 am when we pulled up to my grandparents’ house on August 15. My grandfather, Thomas O’Brien ’44, was already outside, ready to hop in the car and make the drive down to SHC with his oldest great-grandchild, Sicily ’22, for the first day of her freshman year. Nearly 75 years have passed since he graduated, walking early in February, with fellow classmates who had been drafted or enlisted to serve in World War II. But as we sailed through the City streets still lazy with summer, his memories were sharp as he recalled the names of the Christian brothers that taught him, the lifelong friendships he forged and laughed at old antics. Back then, tuition cost around $50 per year. When we reached our destination, my grandpa and my daughter took this photo (below). How incredible to see the bookends of our family, born generations apart, both present and enthused about carrying on this academic tradition.
Heather Maddan-Dowdell ’95 is a fifth-generation San Franciscan. She met her husband, Dan, at a high school party. They have three children—Sicily ’22, Asher, 12, and Jackson, 9.
SHC ROUNDTABLE
SHC parent voices DESCRIBE YOUR FAMILY’S HISTORY WITH SHC Carol: Our three sons graduated from SHC. As a parent at SHC, I was president of the Parent Association, parent liaison for WASC accreditation, and chaired many events. I am currently president of the Board of Regents and a member of the Council to the Governance Board. We have never missed a Spring Gala in our years at SHC! Jon: My wife’s brother graduated from SHC back in the 90s. I moved to the Bay Area in 1986 and many of my friends are also alums, some of whom currently work at the school, so we are familiar with the school’s stellar reputation in the community.
friend had been telling Joseph since he was in kindergarten that SHC was the best school.
DESCRIBE THE PROCESS OF SELECTING SHC WITH YOUR STUDENT Carol: I knew in my heart that SHC was the right place for our family when I heard John Scudder, Jr. ’73 talk about the values of the school at an Open House. Our family’s values are completely aligned with those of SHC.
Jon: We felt confident that Lauren would have some decent options as far as selecting a high school because she had worked hard in grammar school. My wife and I pretty much let her drive the initial decision around what schools felt right for her. We toured a few Mark: My father, Julian, was a different campuses and the SHC graduate of the class of 1949 and community just seemed like the later became the first president of best overall fit. It was after Irish for the Board of Regents. He sent all a Day that Lauren felt certain SHC five of his sons to the school, Chuck ’75, was the place for her. My wife and I Jay ’78, David ’80, Bob ’83, and myself. In addition, five of my nieces agreed with her choice. and nephews are also alums. Mark: I told Mia she didn't have a Michele: We knew generally about choice! Seriously, we agreed that when it was time to look at colSHC from raising our children in leges, she could apply to as many San Francisco and having kids in parochial elementary school (Notre as she wanted, but that we weren’t going to spend time looking at Dame Des Victoires)—and seeing all of those banners! We knew some other high schools just for the sake of stressing out. The current proSHC students and faculty from cess of choosing a high school has soccer. However, because neither of us grew up in San Francisco, we become so fraught with artificially-produced angst that we decided did not know a great deal about SHC before starting the high school to just save ourselves the stress. process the first time around.

sity of students and activities. The students looked happy to be there, which is a good sign, particularly with everything teenagers have to deal with these days. It also seemed like there was no “SHC type”—that any student could thrive there. Stella: We attended Open House when Joseph was in seventh grade. I really liked what I saw: the kids were articulate and friendly, everyone was approachable, and the academics were amazing. I decided right away that this would be a great fit for us, but Joseph took some time. In eighth grade he did Irish for a Day. That was quite an influence—after spending time there Joseph made his decision, much to my relief. When he got the acceptance he immediately went on the website and confirmed, he did not even wait to see if he had other options, which he did.
WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER TO BE SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT CHARACTERISTICS OF A HIGH SCHOOL COMMUNITY, AND HOW DOES SHC MEASURE UP? Carol: From a student perspective, I think it’s important for a high school to be developmentally appropriate. To me that means that kids come to the school with different capabilities and levels of maturity, and the school community can address the individual needs of students, meet them where they are, and challenge them to grow. Our three sons were very different, and each one got what they needed out of their experience at SHC.
Jon: My wife and I think that a school in San Francisco should reflect the diversity of the City— SHC definitely measures up in that regard. Along those same lines, we want Lauren (and hopefully our younger daughter, Ava) to experience her formative years in a community that is open and supportive. We also wanted a high school community that would challenge our daughters to try new activities and accomplish things they never thought possible. Mark: I think the ways in which a faculty supports its students’ growth and success is essential, and I believe SHC innately excels at this. The charisms of both the Brothers and Daughters promote the mentoring of their charges, not just rote learning for learning’s sake or getting a particular grade, but the development of a well-rounded individual who is a student of life and a compassionate person as well. Michele: SHC sets a high bar for itself and continually seeks ways to improve and innovate. The faculty truly enjoy what they do and care deeply about the students, frequently going above and beyond to support them. The administration and faculty embody and promote values that foster a warm, respectful, supportive and active student body. In all of these areas, SHC has exceeded our expectations. We also appreciate that SHC is a true San Francisco school, and draws a diverse group of students from all over this vibrant city. Stella: The community spirit should be really strong. We love the sense of inclusivity and welcoming at SHC, the diversity of the student
OUR PANEL: body, and how there is something for everyone. SHC is second to none. I think it is great that people in San Francisco are finally realizing what strong academics we have, in addition to other strengths, and that the charisms of the Daughters and Brothers really permeate everything, creating a great package.
WHAT HAS BEEN MOST SURPRISING ABOUT YOUR SHC EXPERIENCE AS A PARENT? Carol: The very genuine respect for the dignity and worth of every person in the community. SHC truly walks the talk. Jon: We didn't know how big the SHC campus has become. When my brother-in-law attended I believe it was only one or two buildings. So I can honestly say that we were surprised and impressed by the size and layout of the campus. Mark: After working here for over three years, I've finally had to start paying attention to the block schedule! Michele: How generally positive our kids’ experience there has been and how much they love SHC and the community. Stella: The many opportunities for parents to be involved and how fun it is to participate. Another surprise is how the school excels in giving kids such a strong sense of leadership through service. Not having the required hours as other schools have, but having it as integral to learning (and to sports and arts) is just brilliant.
love to learn and find motivation in her thirst for knowledge and growth—intellectually as well as spiritually. Michele: Our hope is for our children to learn and grow in an environment that nudges them out of their comfort zone and is also caring and supportive. We hope they are able to manage the demands of high school, enjoy this time in their life, maintain balance and perspective, and that they leave SHC feeling equipped and excited for their next chapter. Stella: It is always that they are happy, that they make lasting friendships, and keep the service component as integral to their lives.
FINALLY, WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE TO FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN IN GRAMMAR SCHOOL BEGINNING TO CONSIDER HIGH SCHOOLS? Carol: Select a school that is the right place for your family and your child. Really look hard at the schools, especially if you were educated in San Francisco. Schools have changed significantly over the years. They are all good—but they are also different. Jon: Do your research and find the school that is the best fit for your child and your family. Don’t select a school based solely on its reputation or what you have heard from others—or where your kid’s friends are going to attend. You’ve got to get out there and kick the tires. GO IRISH! Mark: Ask yourself, "Who do I feel comfortable
WHAT IS YOUR HOPE FOR YOUR CHILD with guiding my child for the next four years?" AS THEY NAVIGATE HIGH SCHOOL? Carol: My children have already graduated, but my hope for incoming and current parents is that their children enjoy coming to school every day. Mine did. Jon: We want Lauren to be challenged as a student and as an athlete. Our hope is that she will find support in SHC’s community of educators and coaches and friends and teammates when she faces challenges. Ultimately, over the next four years, we want Lauren to get ready for college and adulthood. And, of course it probably goes without saying, we want her to have a safe and successful high school experience, which we believe SHC will provide. Mark: As the frenzy of the first few months of freshman year fade, I hope Mia will continue to
Michele: Look at a range of schools to figure out what you value and care about in a school. Try to get a sense of the community. Try not to stress—San Francisco has lots of great high schools. Trust your child’s instincts … and GO IRISH!

Stella: Visit, ask questions, talk to a range of people. Listen carefully. A big factor for me is that every parent of an SHC student could confidently say their kids were happy and loved the school. Parents with kids in other schools often emphasized workload, stress, or the “sink or swim” aspect of their experience. Parents at SHC focused on well-being and happiness. That was huge for us.

new director of choral music
M i c h a e l Ke r s c h n e r By Clarissa Mendiola
S
HC’s Choral Music Program has a new leader at the helm this year. Michael Kerschner joined the SHC community this fall after completing a decade-long tenure as artistic director of the Young New Yorkers’ Chorus. A conductor, a visual artist, an educator, and a lifelong learner and at his core, Michael picked up the baton ready to guide SHC choirs to greater heights.
12
FALL 2018
Throughout his career, choirs under Michael’s direction have performed at the National Convention of the American Choral Directors Association, the Command Performance at the Nevada All-State Conference, the Western Division ACDA Student Symposium, and with the New Amsterdam Orchestra and Ensemble 212. He has traveled the world performing—from Italy to Canada, Croatia to Cuba. At the top of his career highlights is a collaboration with Jad Adumrab from NPR’s Radiolab in which his choir was featured in two episodes about color. After building an impressive career as an educator and choral conductor in New York City (Young New Yorkers’ Chorus Artistic Director, Metropolitan Youth Orchestra Chorale Conductor), Michael was ready for a change, and for him, that meant a cross-country move. “I was only interested in schools that value choral music as much as I do, so I consider myself very lucky to have discovered the job opening at SHC.” As choral director, Michael oversees nearly 200 students across seven different ensembles. Nearly a full semester into his new gig, Michael is settling in nicely. “During the interview process, I had heard about how warm and welcoming the SHC community was, and it definitely felt that way. This community lives up to its reputation. When a school puts this much energy into creating joy for its students, it ends up doing the same for teachers, staff and administrators.” Michael’s visual compositions often invoke the same themes he explores onstage—beauty, awe, wonder. While the music he makes is a collaborative effort, often involving hundreds of individuals, he describes his visual work as “insular, and certainly more oblique.” While he grows roots here in San Francisco, he hopes to form an adult community choir. In the meantime, his focus is on learning the ins and outs of the SHC Choral Program, and empowering his students to find their musical voice. “I look forward to ensuring that the SHC Choral Program remains a source of beauty and pride for our community and for the city of San Francisco.”
CHANGING OF THE GUARD We bid farewell to beloved former Director of Choral Music Christian Bohm at the closing of last academic year. It was Christian’s professional gigs in the City that led him to seek a full time teaching position in the area. He had previously taught at Christian Brothers School in Sacramento (which is where he has returned to be closer to family, including his new grandchild) so landing a job at SHC meant continuing his important work, “I was pleasantly surprised to find the students at SHC Christian Bohm to be just as wonderful as the ones I had left and learned quickly that the Lasallian charism was alive and thriving at SHC. I will always be a firm believer in SHC’s Lasallian Vincentian mission, and I believe it is a great place for students to learn and to find their home away from home.” With nearly two decades of service at SHC, Christian made a tremendous impact on the lives of his students, and he brought so much joy to our entire school community through beautiful choral performances. We recently sat down with Christian as he described his top three most treasured SHC moments. In his own words: The first time we performed in the newly built Sister Caroline Collins, DC, Theater, I knew a major dream of ours had been realized. All of the program building, networking, and fundraising had come to fruition, and I was so proud to stand up there with my choirs and perform. It was literally a dream come true. We took a choir trip to Hawai’i years back for a competition. We took home first place, and I was extremely proud of our students’ performance and the way we came together to win. After the competition, the 75 students gathered all around me and jumped up and down chanting. “Bohm, Bohm, Bohm!” It was amazing. We took a choir trip to Italy where we sang at the Vatican for an evening mass. It was a profound experience to sing the mass with our choir in such a revered venue halfway around the world. That particular trip was full of amazing memories and great feelings for me and the students. To all of the students he taught at SHC, he shares his best wishes, “My hope for my former students is that they continue to grow in technique and beauty in their choral singing. Most importantly, my wish is that they continue to treat each other as family and lean on each other for support and friendship.”
FEATURES Stacie Solt, MD ’99, a member of the Sacred Heart Cathedral Board of Regents, is a Stanford University graduate (2003), a UCSF School of Medicine graduate (2009), and currently serves as an urgent care physician in the Peninsula. SHC Magazine recently took a few moments to catch up with her. WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR FONDEST MEMORIES AS A STUDENT AT SHC? Some of my fondest memories were going to Kezar Stadium for football games. There was such a great energy in the stands and on the field, and our football team was really successful during that time (similar to now!). I still love going to Kezar for SHC football games. I remember the 1998 Girls Basketball Team winning the State Championship. It was a momentous occasion for SHC Athletics, and I was proud to cheer the team onto victory. In the classroom, anything to do with the De Paul Scholar Program was quite memorable. I think about the retreats over the years, the Senior Scholar Seminar and especially the January Scholar projects (I went to circus school and trained to be a clown!). I remember dissecting a fetal pig in biology class and really feeling fascinated by anatomy and physiology, which ultimately led to me going into medicine. I remember junior and senior prom and having a blast with my classmates. I remember just hanging out in the halls of the school and laughing with friends after classes. I still think about VENAVER in Tijuana and everything I learned about the world and myself on that trip. I'm still in contact with some of the other par-

ticipants from that journey. I remember the year the library was built on the sixth floor, how much noise the construction made all year, and then what a beautiful and inspiring space evolved the first time I went up there. Finally, I remember graduation and standing in front of all my classmates and their loved ones as I gave the Valedictorian speech and thinking how quickly the four years had gone and yet what amazing things the future held for all of us.
WHAT WAS THE MOST INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY IN USE AT THE TIME? The internet was just starting to get a footing in daily life. I thought it was amazing to be able to look up information on the computer rather than search through stacks of books in the library. Outside of the classroom, I had a pager that made me feel so cool. We used to
communicate in pager code which was an early glimpse of text messaging. I still remember the day I got my first cellphone. It was a flip phone and I knew my world had changed.
WHICH FACULTY MEMBERS WERE INFLUENTIAL ON YOUR DEVELOPMENT DURING YOUR TIME AT SHC? Dr. Ken Hogarty ’66 by far stands out as someone who shaped my future. He was the first SHC teacher I met upon starting school, at the De Paul Scholar Program Freshman Retreat before classes began. I knew from the beginning he was someone special. He helped me become more than just a student, but also a critical thinker and an overall well-developed individual ready to face college and adulthood. He was a huge supporter of my endeavor to
get into Stanford University, and I know that all I learned from him and the De Paul Scholar Program served me well during my time there. I spent countless hours in his office as he counseled me on academics and especially life in general. I am still in close contact with him and he is still a mentor of mine. Mr. Larry Damato ’67, who is no longer at SHC, changed the trajectory of my life as well. He was my sophomore year biology teacher and he really believed in me. He saw my strong interest and natural skills in biology and encouraged me to pursue medicine. I had barely made it halfway through high school and he had already planted a seed in me about my future. On one quiz in particular which I still have (at right), I received an A+ and he wrote, “Do you think Stanford Medical School would accept you now?” It felt so amazing to have someone believe in me that much. I also think of Mr. Tom Farrell and his physics class senior year. He made a challenging subject quite fun. He used to tease me too in a silly way and I always appreciated our rapport. I remember Sister Donna and freshman religion class and how she changed my perception of how cool a sister could be. I also think of Sister Frances and not only her geometry class, but also her firing the gun at halftime of football games or keeping score during basketball. I had Mr. Mario Sazo for Spanish and I still laugh about the telenovela we filmed during sophomore year. My Spanish skills have faded but I still use as much as I remember at work now in the Emergency Department of San Mateo Medical Center where a huge portion of the population we serve speak only Spanish. I think about the Lasallian Youth trip in Memphis after sophomore year and how Ms. Christine Buell was one of the chaperones. I think she had just completed her first year at SHC and I knew the school had found someone special. She was a lot of fun on that trip. I still laugh about the funny moments we shared and reflect back on how much I learned about living a faith-based and spiritual life during that week in Tennessee. The list could go on … so many teachers and staff believed in me and helped shape me into the person I am today, not only in the classroom
but also in cocurriculars. I am forever grateful for the education I received at SHC and the foundation the school created for me to soar into adulthood.
WHEN DID YOU REALIZE YOU WANTED TO BECOME A DOCTOR? The thought of becoming a doctor had been a fleeting thought before high school. I felt interested in so many different areas and I really thought I would go into law and become a judge. It was in Mr. Damato's sophomore year biology class when the thought of becoming a doctor really solidified. I was always fascinated by medicine and I remember interrogating my pediatrician about everything he did while I was a kid.
to SHC for the investment the school made in my future. It only felt natural to return to the school, initially in the Admissions Office (2004-05) and later on the Board of Regents. I am such a proud alumna of SHC; I beam every time I talk about my time at the school and how much it has grown since then. I remember first hearing the SHC motto and really thinking hard about it—I knew my four years at the school would be such a transformative journey, and I also knew that it was not meant to end there.
DESCRIBE YOUR CURRENT WORK. I am a board certified Emergency Medicine physician at San Mateo Medical Center. It is the only county hospital in San Mateo, meaning our patient population tends to be quite underserved. I really enjoy my job, even the overnight shifts, and I feel like I make a real impact on people’s lives. There’s a saying about the Emergency Department and the medical providers there: “We are the best part of your worst day.” It's really true, we change lives. I am also board certified in addiction medicine after doing a one-year fellowship in this specialty. It really helps me work with a very challenging patient population that is in so much need for focused energy during this nationwide opioid epidemic. I serve on the county EMS Committee and help with prehospital treatment algorithms. I have a great relationship with our local paramedics.
DESCRIBE YOUR CAREER PATH AND YOUR ROLE ON THE BOARD AS A RESPONSE TO SHC'S MOTTO ENTER TO LEARN, LEAVE TO SERVE? I felt like a sponge at SHC, soaking all this information into my brain. But it only truly served me well if I could take action with it. I feel tremendously indebted

By Clarissa Mendiola When Mike Aicardi ’04 started the San Francisco Baseball Academy in 2010, he had six wiffle balls, one batting tee, and one client. A mere eight years later, SFBA is the City’s premier baseball school, serving 5,500 players of all ages and skill sets. The academy transformed the historic Bridge Theatre on Geary Boulevard into its headquarters in 2015 and offers lessons, off-season camps, cage rentals, open hitting and pitching hours, and much more. The San Francisco Baseball Academy is a true labor of love for Mike who grew up in North Beach and played on the same cement diamonds as Joe DiMaggio. As a teenager playing baseball at Salesian Boys & Girls Club, Mike dreamed of starting his own baseball academy. When he went on to play at St. John’s University in New York, he saw an indoor batting cage for the first time, which strengthened his vision. Looking back on his time at SHC, Mike remembers his mentors with great fondness, “Coach Brian Morgan was the first person who believed in my ability to play baseball at the Division 1 level. My brother, Robert ’03, always helped me understand my path and how to take it, and Mr. Sazo made sure I stayed on that path.” As a student, Mike took advantage of opportunities to grow his leadership skills, which prove to serve him well today. “SHC allowed me opportunities to lead teams, classrooms and rallies on a daily basis. Being named captain on various teams allowed me to become a competitive leader. The De Paul Scholar Program put me in an academic position to grow into a true student-athlete. Serving as an emcee for the rallies unleashed my creativity for moving groups of people towards one common goal.”
Today, the SFBA prides itself on the people that make it such an incredible organization, as evidenced in glowing, five-star Yelp reviews. Apart from the video technology used for swing analysis, there is no automation. “We’re a baseball barbershop,” Mike explains. “When you rent a batting cage, someone will always throw batting practice. People of all ages and skill levels can come together and enjoy the game.”

UPDATE cross COUNTRY Longtime Sacred Heart Cathedral coach Andy Chan has compiled perhaps the most successful overall Cross Country Team in his tenure, with both boys and girls varsity squads qualifying for the CCS meet and multiple noteworthy program-wide achievements earned along the way. Amongst the varsity teams, standouts were Second Team All-League selections Matt Farruggio ’19 and Corona Smith ’20. In addition, the frosh/ soph girls took home the WCAL title in the league championship meet, the first such achievement in SHC’s cross country history. The squad was led by five runners in the top 10 of the race: Elizabeth Nip ’22 (Second),
Nicolette Fischer ’22 (Third), Emily Ruegg ’22 (Sixth), Lauren Wang ’22 (Seventh), and Alison Ray ’21 (Tenth). At the Mount Sac Invitational, the largest high school cross country invitational in the United States, the JV boys and frosh girls teams finished in first place, and the sophomore boys finished in second, paced by stalwart Mason Tsai ’21. The JV girls, with Kate Kerstetter ’21 placing fourth, finished strong as well, landing a second place team finish in the WCAL. The season continues on Saturday, November 10, as both the boys and girls teams will compete in the CCS Championships at Crystal Springs Course, each team looking to earn a spot in the State Championships taking place November 24. Congratulations on a great season!

Anthony "Speedy" Heard ’19 looks to inflict punishment
The 2018 edition of Coach Barry McLaughlin’s Fightin’ Irish Football team has followed up on last year’s success with another strong season. Led by running back Anthony “Speedy” Heard ’19, wide receiver Levar Watkins, Jr. ’19, linebackers Rafael Cervantez ’19 and Evan Dere ’19, and DL Evan Branch-Haynes ’21 among a host of others, the Irish again qualified for the CCS playoffs with a 5-5 record (3-4 WCAL), and again beat St. Ignatius in a thriller to gain a foothold in maintaining the Bruce-Mahoney trophy, currently in SHC care. In this 95th edition of the SHC-SI battle, Heard rushed for 223 yards and three touchdowns, Watkins Jr. caught the winner with 3:48 left in the fourth quarter, and the Irish defense held strong down the stretch, keeping the ‘Cats out of the end zone in a wild 26-21 victory. Most impressively, the winning touchdown was thrown by Cian Dowling ’21, a transfer from Saint Ignatius starting his first game for the Irish. In addition, the Irish defeated Riordan 38-0 to retain the Stanfel Cup, as well as beating Bellarmine 14-0 in San Jose for the program’s first win over the South Bay school in 21 years. The Irish will next play Live Oak November 12 in the sectional first round game, trying to avenge last year’s 28-21 loss to the same school at Kezar Stadium. Congratulations to the Irish on a great season so far and good luck moving forward!

girls GOLF While the girls golf team struggled over much of the season, finishing at 2-8 in the WCAL, there were plenty of highlights and top performers that point to better results on the horizon. The Irish defeated Mitty and Presentation in league play. Lone senior Nara Han ’19 earned Honorable Mention All-League in her third season on Varsity and siblings Alexa ’20 and Melissa Weaver ’21 will be anchors for the program going forward. Alexa led the team with a sparkling 78 at the Deer Ridge Invitational Tournament, helping the Irish finish fourth out of 13 teams. She also led the team with an 86 at the WCAL tournament. Melissa had the low score for the Irish in the pre-season WCAL Tournament at Santa Theresa and she led the Irish in score differential for September and scored in every WCAL match. Congrats to all!

Making the season even more memorable, the Irish defeated a tough St. Ignatius team four times, three of the matches going five sets. In the WCAL Finals, the Wildcats led the Irish in the fifth set 14-12, only to see the Irish score four straight points to secure the victory. In the CCS Finals on November 2, St. Ignatius jumped out to a two sets to none lead before the Irish found their rhythm and won the final three sets, taking home the sectional title.

The team’s penchant for drama continued in their opening round NorCal playoff game at SHC vs. 8 th seed Ponderosa, a gritty, tall team from the Sierra foothills. After splitting the first four sets, the Bruins entered the deciding fifth with all the momentum, racing to an 11-7 lead. After an unforced hitting error by Ponderosa, however, the Irish swung into action, using the superb serving of Chan, blocks by Canady and Sera and timely kills by Thompson to tally 8 straight points, grabbing a 14-11 lead and leaving Ponderosa stunned. A final Thompson blast at the 10-foot line completed the win, and the Irish moved on. The Fightin' Irish were ultimately defeated in the semifinal match by Central High School from Fresno in another five-set battle, culminating an incredibly memorable year.

Yasemin Ergul ’19 By Clarissa Mendiola Yasemin Ergul ’19 was just a toddler the first time she stepped foot on the ice. By the age of 16, she was competing at the Figure Skating World Championships, the youngest possible age to qualify. Today, as she rounds out her senior year at SHC with a schedule full of Honors and AP classes, Yasemin is inspired by her peers and adult mentors at SHC to finish strong, and no doubt, with grace. As a competitive figure skater, Yasemin has traveled to 11 different countries for international competitions, gathered more than 30 gold medals, and has competed for both the US and Turkish national teams. She has competed in several different figure skating categories including singles, synchronized, theatre on ice, and ice dance. To excel on the ice and in the classroom, Yasemin considers her decision to attend SHC as one of the most important factors in her continued success. “I chose SHC for its loving community. Because of my intense schedule as a competitive student-athlete, I wanted to make sure I was attending an institution that would support me. SHC does exactly this.” Caring and responsive teachers willing to meet outside of classroom hours have certainly alleviated some of the stress a high school student, who is also a professional athlete, might face. Yasemin continues, “I can honestly say that I’m able to manage my success as a student and
as an athlete because of the encouragement and support I receive from the SHC community.” Figure skating isn’t Yasemin’s sole passion. “My favorite class right now is AP Biology. I love the lab experiments because they help me to really learn the content.” Once college decisions roll in, she hopes to study biology on a pre-medicine track. “One day, I hope to become a doctor and continue coaching and training younger generations of figure skaters.”
continue my passion and I am driven to do my best. As for the future, the next step after World Championships would be the 2022 Olympic Games … and who knows what could happen.”
Yasemin most recently represented the Turkish National Team competing in synchronized skating at the Ericsson Globe in Sweden, a venue that holds 16,000 fans. Her team’s routine to Michael Jackson and Cee Lo Green songs were audience favorites. Looking ahead, Yasemin pauses in gratitude for the community that inspired her, “SHC has always been supportive of my career from the day I stepped through the doors as a freshman.

Eduardo Rosales Longtime SHC staff member, Eduardo “Eddy” Rosales, passed away on October 8, 2018. Those who knew Eddy, especially SHC faculty and staff, remember his warm and kind presence, and the way in which he faithfully maintained green spaces and gardens across campus. As a member of SHC’s facilities and maintenance teams, Eddy worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes, alongside several of members of the Rosales family, to ensure the SHC campus always looked beautiful and functioned seamlessly. Eddie is survived by his loving wife, Rosaura, and their first child, Vanessa, born just weeks before his passing.
