Old

to Santee tradition
Sultans snap 7-year streak to West Hills

SANTEE (9-4-10) It seems like everyone associated
with high school football in Santee over the past two
decades has a favorite story to tell about the annual
Mayors Cup game between Mast Boulevard rivals
Santana and West Hills.
Like how the cup name was changed 10 years ago
and now officially reads Jack E. Dale Cup
in honor of Santees lovable mayor from 1992 to
2000.
Like how the 2½-foot tall cup has resided
at West Hills for the past seven years.
Its been so long since Ive seen the
thing, Ive forgotten what it looks like,
joked Santana coach DAVE GROSS before Friday nights
(Sept. 3) season opener at Santana.

EL CAJON (9-5-10) Temperatures on the synthetic
playing surface at Grossmont Colleges Mashin-Roth
Memorial Field soared above 100 degrees when the Griffins
and visiting San Diego Mesa College kicked off the season
Saturday (Sept. 4).
Despite the heat wave the Griffins, who were decked
out in their home Forest Green jerseys and pants, breezed
past the Olympians 36-7 before a sun-soaked crowd of
800.
The heat didnt seem to hamper McLeland on game
day, as he hauled in eight passes for 76 yards, including
a 10-yard touchdown pass from sophomore quarterback
RYAN WOODS.

Q&A:
Stanford TE Levine Toilolo
By Rick Jones

PALO ALTO (9-3-10) With Andrew Luck at quarterback,
the Stanford offense looks to be dangerous and two weapons
in the Cardinal arsenal will be Helix alum LEVINE TOILOLO,
named the starter by (former San Diego Charger quarterback)
JIM HARBAUGH, and new wide receiver Corey Gatewood.
We caught up with both for a Q & A.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (9-1-10) Former Helix High standout
ANTHONY LARCEVAL will face the biggest assignment of his
life as a starting defensive tackle for San Jose State
University when the Spartans open the season Saturday
(Sept. 4) against top-ranked Alabama.
It will be the second time in San Jose State's 93-year
football history opening against the preseason No. 1 (Nebraska
, 2000) as they make the journey to the Deep South and
Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Larceval, a 6-1, 265-pound red-shirt freshman, will participate
in his first ballgame since falling in the 2008 CIF Division

Grossmont South League title en route to being tabbed
the East County Defensive Player of the Year.

MOSCOW, Idaho (8-29-10) Come Thursday night, Idaho
football fans will have a better sense of how the Vandals
starting linebacker crew has coalesced. Already, though,
this much is certain: They fit together splendidly at
their off-campus home.
JoJo Dickson and Robert Siavii are from Hawaii, HOMER
MAUGAs family used to live in Honolulu, and all
three have carried the laid-back islands vibe to
their house. |
