- 2013: Mission Hills Our Choice in Preseason Poll
Chants of “We’re number one!” followed by “Why aren’t we number one?” will be heard in a few days when UT-San Diego’s first football Top 10 will signal that games are just days away.
With a little help from UT-San Diego’s John Maffei, who emailed his annual request with some brief team rundowns a few weeks ...
- 2005: A Double What? Forfeit (Both Teams!)
Game officials came under fire.
A brawl between Helix and Mount Miguel resulted in a referee’s suspension and “double forfeit”.
Playoff divisions increased.
At least two programs were rocked by ineligibility.
WEAK SHALL INHERIT
The San Diego Section playoffs became five divisions, marking the first expansion of the postseason since a fourth division was added in 1979.
Lousy teams with no chance ...
- 1954: Bulldogs’ Bite Felt in Foothills
Ramona High, in business since 1894 but sans football until 1938, was emerging.
Nestled at 2,200 feet between Mount Woodson and Iron Mountain in San Diego’s East County, the Bulldogs had quietly plugged along in relative mediocrity for 15 years, save for the 6-1 season of Charlie Snell’s 1940 squad.
Ramona suddenly posted a 7-0 record under ...
- 1954: South Bay Dynasty
Chet DeVore was thinking of an earlier, distant journey and a notion called the “Spin T”.
“We expect a tough game from an aggressive, well-coached team,” DeVore said of coach Gus Headington’s 10-1 El Centro Central squad and its uniquely designated offensive formation, “but we took one, long ride home with a beaten team this year and we ...
- 1954: Cavemen Come of Age
Duane Maley, his voice hoarse and body soaked from an impromptu shower by the coach’s shouting, celebrating players, stood amid the bedlam of the San Diego High sideline in Balboa Stadium.
“My kids played the best football game I’ve ever seen,” said Maley after the gritty, 7-0 victory over the 7-0 Hoover Cardinals in perhaps the ...
- 1954: Coronado’s Fallen Officer
Frank Greene had spent much of his life around a football field or in law enforcement when he was shot and killed at age 43 on Oct. 12, 1954.
Greene set the standing California high school record of 80 points in one game when he scored 11 touchdowns and 14 points after in a 108-0 Coronado ...
- 1954: “A Play That Will Live in Infamy”
Hoover principal Floyd Johnson was thinking of making a change when he met with football coach Bob Kirchhoff before the 1954-55 school year.
Johnson was dissatisfied. A 1953 season that began with much promise was sullied by a 4-4-1 finish that included a 39-0 loss to rival San Diego High.
Johnson would retire after the 1955-56 school ...
- 2013: Kenny Hale, 90, Played and Coached Basketball
Kenny Hale, one of the last surviving members of San Diego State’s 1940-41 National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics basketball championship team, passed away at age 90.
A 1938 San Diego High graduate, Hale eventually went into coaching and had winning records at Hoover and Mission Bay.
Led by superstar Bill McColl, Hoover was 20-8 in Hale’s first ...
- 2004: Another Championship Run for Oceanside
John Carroll got some good news the day before his Oceanside Pirates were to meet Carlsbad for what would be the title-deciding game in the Avocado League.
Coach John McFadden of Eastlake called Carroll and told the Oceanside mentor that Eastlake had used an ineligible player in the 23-19, season-opening victory over the Pirates.
Instead of an ...
- 2013: Some Locals Stood Out at Clovis
San Diego Section athletes in both genders stepped up in the Saturday finals of last week’s state track and field championships.
The college-like campus at Clovis’ Buchanan High was a wonderful venue for the 95th Boys’ championship and 40th Girls’ meet and drew more than 17,000 persons over two days.
Saturday’s finals began under a late-afternoon sun, ...

- 2013: Cathedral Sophomore Chases Devers
CLOVIS—Twenty-one of San Diego’s 90 entries qualified yesterday for this evening’s 95th State track-and-field championships at Buchanan High.
In arguably a mediocre season for the San Diego Section, a strong season finish is possible.
The state meet is the event in which winning is not always more important than improving on a personal best or setting a ...
- 2013: Pat Shea, 73; Mission Bay and Chargers
Pat Shea, a starting right guard on the San Diego Chargers’ 1963 American Football League championship team and a legendary Mission Bay High athlete, passed away in Encinitas recently at age 73.
Shea won the 1958 CIF Southern Section heavyweight wrestling championship for the Buccaneers and was the ’58 City Prep League track championships shot put ...
