Coyotes jump out to lead, hold on for win
DENAIR - The start couldn't have been more sweeter. Denair High slugger Brian Willis had two runners on base in the Coyotes' showdown against Turlock Christian High on Tuesday afternoon. And on the first pitch that he saw in the game, he swung his bat and the ball went sailing toward the leftfield fence. It was gone. That provided three much-needed runs, but was it enough? The Coyotes didn't think it was, but they still ...

Mattos’ short stay at Turlock touched many lives
Ron Cornell spent four decades coaching at Denair High until he called it a career in 2009. He might not have even considered coaching in the first place if it wasn't for Bob Mattos, whose short stay at Turlock High was memorable as he was an assistant coach for the Bulldogs in 1970. That year, they were 10-0. People who were around that team know that Mattos was an important piece to Turlock's success, as ...

First, they made the workouts hard enough so the runners ...
