Talk about going out in a blaze of glory.

South Bay Lutheran had won back-to-back CIF eight-man Division II titles, but the word is there is a 99.9 percent chance the school will not field a football team this season.

Granted South Bay Lutheran is a small Inglewood-based school of 70 students, meaning the there is not a large pool to choose from in its student-body. But if a school can't field enough eligible players for an eight-man team, there's obviously something wrong.

I understand the California Football Officials Association-South Bay Unit is under review by the California Officials Association, Accreditation Commission for misconduct toward members and former members and former BOD members. The South Bay unit deadline is sometimees in October 2008. Maybe someone know something and would like to comment on this bizarre situation in the prep football community.

Dave Thorpe

Dave Thorpe was a self-proclaimed, slightly above average baseball player back in the day at Torrance's West High, who went on and had an unspectacular, injury-riddled stint as a third baseman at El Camino College. Trading bat for pen, Thorpe wrote sports for the Long Beach Union newspaper at Long Beach State University, then worked as the sports editor for the Palos Verdes Peninsula News for seven years before climbing down the Hill to the Daily Breeze, where he has been a sports writer covering local sports since 2007.
