The Mountain View Volleyball Club’s 16 Red team claimed the bronze medal in the 16 Patriot Division last month at the Girls Junior National Championships in Detroit.

Three local golfers finished among the top 40 in the boys division of the ACDS Junior Championship, held July 16-18 at San Jose Country Club.

Los Altos Hills resident Tyson Dinsmore tied two other golfers for 19th place with a 4-over-par 214, while Los Altos residents Seth Pope and Carlos Arieta Winsett tied for 33rd (8-over-par 218) and 38th (11-over-par 221), respectively.

Los Altos High’s Vincent Colodny hauls in a touchdown pass in front of a South safety in last week’s all-star football game.

Los Altos High’s Vincent Colodny didn’t check off everything on his to-do list for last week’s 44th annual Charlie Wedemeyer High School All-Star Football Game – his North team wasn’t able to beat the South – but the tight end did make a touchdown catch.

“That was exciting,” Colodny said of scoring the North’s lone TD in the showcase for the county’s top graduated seniors, which the South won 17-7 July 18 at Los Gatos High. “It was one of my goals. I wanted to win, too, but it was a lot of fun tonight no matter what. I had a good time.”
