This is what @RisingCoaches is about. It’s about creating real relationships. I met Sev less than a year ago on a random zoom and he flew across the country and caught one of my games.

We are now looking for a game on 8/21 had a team pull out. We are willing to travel to the Bay, San Diego, Vegas, Greater PHX, or we can host. We are trying to give our kids an experience! @chriscfore @latsondheimer @Tarek_Fattal @johnwdavis

Rest in Peace, Coach Rick Adelman.

Rick, a 1964 St. Pius X graduate and 2017 Hall of Fame inductee, touched countless lives. Our prayers are with his wife, Mary Kay, their children, grandchildren, and his brother, Clete during this time.

@VinceNolascoAD @NILnotNLI @wrestlingbypir8 @latsondheimer @Tarek_Fattal @chriscfore @theevoiceof @James_Escarcega They moved into the Big West, and only Men’s Golf is a BW sponsored sport. You’ll see more non-protected/non-revenue producing sports get axed by college programs as they figure out how to stay afloat.
