“No matter if you’re really good or really bad, you just like to be in competitive games,” one coach says.
Paul Rosa coaches football at Wilcox High. His teams have been among the Central Coast Section’s best since he took over the Santa Clara school’s program in 2015.
Rosa introduced a proposal to help resolve the issue, and that plan will be implemented next season, the last of a two-year commitment made by the SCVAL and PAL when they joined forces.Under Rosa’s proposal, the merged league of five divisions will put its best teams in the top grouping. It will be categorized as “A+” and automatically send five of its six teams to the CCS playoffs.
“Everybody wants to play competitive games during the season, I think,” Rosa said on Thursday. “No matter if you’re really good or really bad, you just like to be in competitive games, and we just weren’t in those. Last season, Mountain View lost to Sacred Heart Prep 41-7, Wilcox 44-14 and Los Gatos 56-0. The Spartans finished 1-4 in league play and 4-8 overall.
“That’s kind of how we came to where we’re at. Let’s face it. The top four in the league were easy. Us, Burlingame, Half Moon Bay, Menlo, Palo Alto, you could probably throw all of us in a hat and pick two and we’re all basically the same school. My problem is I have the most returning all-leaguers.”“All my returning guys are skill players,” he said. “My linemen are not. But I am OK with our placement. I am on the committee. I understand what we’re doing. I am not going to appeal it.
