Girls’ Lacrosse: A Historic NCS Title
The girls’ lacrosse team made history by winning their first-ever North Coast Section (NCS) Division I lacrosse championship. They finished league play with a perfect 5-0 record.

Senior midfielder Tommy Winship led the charge, and seven Wildcats made the boys’ All-BCL West first team. The talent pool at Marin Academy seems endless some years.

While Marin Academy ruled lacrosse, San Domenico School made their mark in several sports. Softball and swimming, in particular, stood out.
Their athletes showed a mix of individual skill and true team spirit. You could really feel the momentum building as the season went on.
Softball: MVP Performance and Team Success
San Domenico’s softball team wrapped up a stellar 16-5 overall record. They didn’t lose a single league game, going 10-0.

Seeing players from San Rafael and Kentfield get recognized is always great. The local pride runs deep in these programs.
Swimming and Track & Field Excellence
The Panthers made a splash in the pool and on the track. Swimmers Sanne Kostecki, Nolan Andrews, Korsak Demyd, and Omar Williams all earned first-team honors.
Omar Williams went a step further, winning the 300-meter and 200-meter hurdles at the BCL championships. His speed is something else.
It’s just inspiring to see athletes from places like Ross and Corte Madera shining on the BCL West stage.

Recognition for Marin County athletes didn’t stop with the big programs. Individuals from several schools picked up all-league honors in all kinds of spring sports.
Golf Glory for Marin Academy
In boys’ golf, Dylan Siegel from Marin Academy was named BCL West MVP. That’s well-deserved.
The Wildcats grabbed the league title and took second at the BCL tournament. Teammates Charlie Wilhelm and Ben Schrumpf also made the first team, showing off the program’s depth.
Swimming Prowess from Marin Academy
Marin Academy’s swimmers racked up individual recognition too. Cameron Forbes, Esme Norton, Hannah Shoup, and Caroline Starrett all made the All-BCL first team.
On top of that, their relay and medley relay teams earned multiple first-team spots. That kind of teamwork is tough to beat.
Track & Field Victories
On the track, Grace Bramble from Marin Academy won the triple jump and took second in the long jump at the BCL meet. She’s a real all-around athlete.
Meanwhile, over in Sausalito, Emmett Trautsch of San Domenico won the high jump. Another big moment for BCL West athletes this year.

Boys’ tennis gave a nod to Toby Sadzeck at San Domenico. Badminton had a strong showing too, with first-team honors for Flora Yierge, Frank Shi, and Inka Xiong.
It’s pretty cool to see athletes from places like Mill Valley and Tiburon getting this kind of spotlight. The variety of sports represented just shows how much talent is spread out here.
