MARTIN NUÑEZ: THE ANCHOR OF OUR BACK-TO-BACK MEL TITLES 🏆
There is nothing quite like the bond forged in the halls of Hogan High School, the tennis courts on Heartwood Ave, or the streets of Vallejo. For the Class of '85 championship squad, that bond was built on sweat, competition, and a shared drive to be the best in the Monticello Empire League.

The Spartan Standard
Every great team has an anchor, and for the Hogan Spartans, that was Martin Nuñez. As our #1 singles player, Martin set the tone for our back-to-back MEL Tennis Championships. After a stellar collegiate career at SF State, Martin has continued to share his expertise, coaching teams at San Ramon Valley High and Alhambra High. He wasn't just a teammate; he was the standard-bearer for "Pinoy Built" excellence.

From Hogan High School
To Mini-HHS Reunions in Stockton
Our journey started on the MEL courts of Vallejo, but the brotherhood lives on in every mini-HHS reunion we hold. Whether we're catching up in Stockton or cheering on the next generation of Pinoy athletes, we keep building that Spartan legacy.
