📰 News we're reading
• Saint Mary's just landed the kind of recruit that could change everything after Randy Bennett (bustingbrackets.com) — Saint Mary’s in Moraga just landed McDonald’s All-American point guard Darius Bivins, a first in program history and a major signal about the Gaels’ post–Randy Bennett future. New head coach Mickey McConnell is keeping the program’s guard-focused, disciplined style intact while proving top national recruits still believe in the culture built in Moraga. 
• Corgi puppy yoga is absolutely as adorable as you think (eastbaytimes.com) — A Moraga mom and her two kids drove to Redwood City just to try an ultra-cute corgi puppy yoga class, and she says it was worth the trip. The weekend sessions mix light yoga with 8- to 9-week-old corgi pups, plus extra playtime, all under careful sanitation and animal-care rules. Classes run weekends on Woodside Road and require advance registration.
