Sports: Oaks Christian has had quite a year in athletics

The Oaks Christian school in Westlake Village is on some kind of a roll.

An eye-popping 11 teams have advanced to the semifinals or beyond and three teams have won championships with a possibility of one more.

The softball team will play for the schools fourth title this year this weekend in Irvine against South Hills in Div. III.

In the fall, the football team beat Westlake for the Northern Division championship and the boys water polo and girls volleyball teams reached the semifinals in their respective divisions.

In the fall, the boys' basketball team captured the Div. IV-A championship, the girls soccer team won the Div. IV championship, the girls' basketball team lost in the Div. IV-A championship and the boys' soccer team reached the Div. V semifinals.

The girls' soccer team also captured the Div. III Southern California regional championship in a victory over the top-ranked team in the country at the time, Flintridge Sacred-Heart.

This spring has seen the softball team advance to this weekends championship game, both the boys' and girls' track and field teams finish second to Serra and the baseball lose a 2-1 heart-breaker to Palm Desert in the Div. IV semifinals.

That is athletics success.
