Joe Quesada: August 2010 Archives
Two years ago, it was as good as it has ever been for Hesperia football. The Scorpions, under head coach Robert Kistner and running back Gavin Santos, rolled through the Mojave River League en route to a school-record 11-1 season. But those moments might as well have been decades ago as far as Hesperia is concerned.
All remnants from the 20 wins in 2007 and 2008, including Kistner, are gone. Left in their wake is a group of three returning starters that are coming back to a team that was 3-7 last year under brand-new coach Jeremy Topete. As Topete enters year two, he realizes that building Hesperia back up isn't a small task.
"I guess you can say we are officially rebuilding right now," Topete said. "We really do not have many kids coming back that have played at this level. It's going to be a challenge but it is one that we are ready to face."
