The Mustangs of Oakland's Cristo Rey De La Salle High School are continuing the athletic tradition on 34th Avenue in the heart of Fruitvale. The Red and White, well established through years of St. Elizabeth High School's Mustangs, gave so much opportunity for students. Mustang coaches and teamplay taught valuable life lesson. I still look back gratefully on my own experience on the 1972 Mustang varsity football team.
As did I, many Mustangs attended St. Elizabeth Elementary School and were "Knights"!
Along with us Knights, still more Mustangs, played on the Oakland Diocese's many CYO teams.
Here's an update on Fall 2022 Mustangs sports
Fall saw a young Mustang Women's Volleyball team do well on the home court while having some challenges as visitors.
Men's Basketball started strong this fall. Under Coach Winters, the team plays with enthusiasm, discipline and focus. Men's Basketball continues after the Christmas Holiday.
More Mustang Sports news to follow in future posts. Merry Christmas to all past and present Mustangs!
