All-City Drive Of The Year: Compton Football Win At Lakewood
Compton football has fallen heartbreakingly short in a handful of Moore League games over the last few years. Losing a 13-point second half lead at Jordan and a last-second touchdown pass given up against Millikan are just two examples from this year alone. Compton and coach Calvin Bryant bucked the trend in late October at […]
All-City Comeback Of The Year: Long Beach State Dirtbags
Everyone wanted to forget the 2019 Long Beach State Dirtbags season as soon as it was over. The failed campaign started with a 10-game losing streak — the worst start in program history — and included coach Troy Buckley’s firing after a physical altercation with an assistant.

All-City Team Of The Year: Wilson Girls’ Basketball
Long Beach’s lone CIF championship during the 2019-20 season was a significant one, as Wilson’s girls’ basketball program claimed its first CIF plaque in two decades with a 66-62 overtime win over Eisenhower for the CIF-SS Division 3A title.
