they openly recruit so it's no surprise they have great teams every year. when fontana was a powerhouse back in the 80's de-lasalle would not play them . and fontana is a public school but was the only high school in fontana then. back in 87-89 fontana would have beat them good.

The Fontana National Championship team of the late 80s could have beaten anybody. They were tough, well disciplined and well coached. They won as a team not as individuals. That was the secret to their success.
Those were down years for the Redlands Terriers, so I followed the Steelers in the playoffs.

It's doubtful there was any discussion of a Fontana vs. De La Salle game in the late 1980s because the De La Salle dynasty had not yet begun.
