Here’s a clip from Richard Nixon, who said it best when it’s time to leave.

It is with mixed feelings I let everyone know that as of next week, I will no longer be the prep sports editor for the Whittier Daily News.
As many as you know that our Pasadena Star-News prep editor resigned in June and I’ve been chosen to succeed him in Pasadena. Eric Terrazas will take over here.
I’m sure most of you know Eric, who has been here the past few years, helping out with our coverage. He’s a graduate of La Serna High School, so he certainly knows the area. He will take over this blog and the area, beginning next week, and I’m sure he will do a great job.
I leave here with mixed feelings. I’m obviously looking forward to covering some new schools in the Pasadena area, but I will miss interacting with the coaches and players of our Whittier area schools, especially this coming season, which promises to be one of the better area football seasons in recent memory, with many top games.
I’m sorry I could let people know before, but had to wait until it became official.
I know I will definitely miss the area.
All I can really say is what Richard M. Nixon said in 1974 when he left the presidency, Au revoir — we’ll see you again.
