As the new sports season springs into action at the Ojai Valley Upper Campus, the golf team swings into action as they take to the greens with clubs in hand and determination in their hearts to improve their game and compete with other schools.
On a recent Sunday morning, as thousands of runners took to the streets for the annual Surf City Marathon, OVS senior Eli Roston and junior Benjamin Scordamaglia joined the crowd on the 26.2-mile journey, equipped with the shoes on their feet, the gels in their packs, and the determination to conquer the trail ahead of them.
Seniors are sadly wrapping up the end of their OVS sports careers, from which they have gained so much from. These sports have brought the seniors a stronger bond with their classmates and they have learned and improved so much throughout their years here.
During certain sport seasons at Ojai Valley School, students feel limited by the available sports options and desire a new addition to the program. This year, five girls in this situation worked hard to introduce a yoga program.
This weekend, Ojai Valley School will take two teams of riders to their first Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA) horse show, launching the resurgence of a competitive riding program for elementary, middle and high school students.
