SPORTS FAN ORIGINAL said:

Del Rio League follower: I am becoming a Coach Mata fan. EVERYBODY LOVES A WINNER. INCLUDING ME. All I can suggest after this run of the basketball program (with such young, inexperienced players) is that Coach Mata is CHANGING ATTITUDES!! If he keeps winning, it may prove WHITTIER HAS ATHLETES. That is what I have been suggesting since I started blogging about one year ago.

Maybe it may change the Adminstrations ideas and they may stop listening to LONGO and company. Why do I mention LONGO? Because one of her friends gave her up on this blog

Sports Fan Original said:

COME ON MURRAY: Maybe not since his first couple of years! I do not know. I do not follow basketball much. I just know the basics: La Serna and Coach Lowe have pretty much "conquered the Del Rio League" over the years, then do "nothing" in the playoffs.

I think I know enough to say that the Del Rio League is very weak in basketball for that reason.

Other sports (baseball and football is what I follow) have done pretty well in the playoffs lately.

I will always "ANSWER THE QUESTION"! If I am wrong, I can eat it. It does not bother me to be wrong, because I am right alot also.

lol said:

yeah woke them up to another loss at the hands of cal hi lol.

Sports Fan Original said:

Del Rio League Follower: Easy..... La Serna!!! Whittier woke them up. Based upon what has occurred over the past 8 or 10 years, why would I pick any other team?

Like I say, they win league and do "nothing" in the playoffs.

I am not one of those Whittier Parents. I will answer the question.

COME ON MURRAY said:

Sports Fan Original
How many times did your good friend varos beat La Serna.
Come on answer the question ? ha ha

Del Rio League Follower said:

To Sports Fan Original :

But you didnt answer the question. Whos going to win the del rio league? La serna is still the team to beat.

Sports Fan Original said:

Del Rio League Follower:

So far, a big incorrect judgement. But, if you remember, I did apologize for what I said a few weeks after I put my foot in my mouth!!
I stated "I was wrong"!

Obviously there is some coaching going on if they beat La Serna!!

Del Rio League follower said:

To: sports fan original,

So what did you think about the Whittier-La Serna game WHS 59 LSHS 55 last Wed.? What a let down for the Cardinals losing to Pioneer by 1,PHS 55 WHS 54. Whittier is 9-9 overall and 2-1 in league. Who do you think will win league? That security guys knows how to coach. What do you think?

Thai Soup said:

Hey BFF -

Mazzota did not have to recruit him...Drake's good friend Elkington is the center at LH. Drake went to a few games and saw something special. Simple as that.

sports fan original said:

BFF: LH never really did win from within with that open enrollment in the Fullerton Unified SD. If you are correct then that is proof of recruiting.

Even so, Mazzotta and company took a well below average program and made it outstanding. "In the beginning" they did not have the athletes they have now, but vastly improved the program and won anyway.

Now with their history and recruiting, the present will continue into their future.

Swordsmen said:

St. Paul family is happy of the players named, and that is the bottomline. These SP people are bitter of the season they had but real Swordsmen know that the Sword will get better in due time. But for the time being let us celebrate the rest of the community and stop bickering about the rest. St. Paul is better than that. From a real Swordsmen.

Anonymous said:

truth boys
Are you serious? Why would you even admit that you were part of the worst team St. Paul has ever fielded? As for next year, try next decade. I cant wait for the same excuses you will use over and over. LOL.

Whittier Cardinal said:

Roger,

We just read in this morning's paper of your retirement...Congratulations !!!!!!

Thank you for 13 years of reporting the local Whittier Prep Sports News with Honesty and Integrity and most of all with that personal interest touch you have with the players and coaches !!!

You will definitely be missed by all !!!!! I know both of our boys will be both sad you are retiring but also Happy for you and the time you will be spending in retirement.

Ed is now playing in the KBL, after playing a year at BYU Hawaii and Ricky is still playing , once in awhile up at our local college.

Once again CONGRATULATIONS !!!!! and Thank You for being a Great Person !

St. Paul Fan said:

I believe the all area players selected this season is a great list. We can't deny the the fact that La Mirada and La Habra had great seasons and obviously their players deserve the recognition. In 2007 when SP won their title the majority of the players were from SP. I want to congratulate all the players that earned All Area honors great job boys. Way to make Friday nights memorable to all of us fans. keep working hard and hopefully our area will have more titles to add to our list.

Area Fan said:

Truth boys, not sure if La Habra will gain anything from playing St.Paul. La Habra would rather schedule a Pac-5 power such as Los Al or San Clemente. Next season, 2010, they have Orange Lutheran, St. John Bosco and possibly another power(heck, they should just join the Trinity League...j/k). However, LH vs. SP would be an interesting game.

BFF said:

It's official!!! Coach Mazzotta did a heck of a job in recruiting Drake Griffin from St. Paul. I'm a buddy of his and they promised him the world over there. I thought these guys won from within. Not so impressed with LH any more.

Swordsmen said:

Say what?.....Anonymous said:
why are the st. paul fans angry that no one from their squad made it?
Whow has the best athletes in the area? Not cal hi and surely not la habra you knucklehead. We play the best schools, none of the whittier schools will play us, private or public.

Anonymous said:

Hay Roger or Andrew can one of you please let us know who made the 1st, 2nd, and honorable mention All Del Rio Team. Thanks

Truth boys said:

the lie that RB Drake going to LH is totally false. the team we will have this year awesome! and maybe that's why the schools in the area still wont schedule us. fear is a killer for schools who hate to lose or fear strong competition. we have always separated the boys from the men!

ls said:

why dont you talk about a real sport, wrestling !

Anonymous said:

who got honorable mention???

Swordsmen said:

RB Drake Griffin, St. Paul, Junior is by far the most talented Back, torres, jones are weak as water. Drake should of been first team. if you believe anything you'll better believe that!

Anonymous said:

why are the st. paul fans angry that no one from their squad made it? Do they not realize this is for players who demonstrated skills above the rest? Do you remember the games you guys played? The embarassment week after week. Maybe you should of played your second stringers more. Everyone knows at st. paul its not what your abilities are, but who your parents know. OOO_OUCH! truth hurts huh?

SPReal; Swordsmen said:

this team is weak, who from this team is going anywhere?

Brett Bartolone is a sophomore not a junior
