Congratulations to the 2023 York Falcons Girls Basketball Team!

The team had a 12-2 season record, with an 8-0 record in winning the PCAL Arroyo Division, a 3-1 interdivisional record with 2 wins over Santa Catalina and a win over a strong Marina team.

The team then entered the CCS Playoffs as the 6th ranked team and won their 2nd Round game over Oakwood, before finally falling to 3rd ranked Castilleja in an intense defensive battle in the CCS Quarterfinals.

What a wonderful ride of a season! Bravo to team members Quincy Key, Asya Wilson, Myra Khieu, Maya Brent-Nurse, Alondra Valdes, May Huang, Ava Hoffmeister, Jocelyn Crook, Aria Asmuth, and to York Coach Bruce Herr.

A high flying Falcon season to remember for years to come...
