2015 Week 2: Helix Defeat Unexpected

Helix still ranks as the No. 12 team in the state by the respected Cal-Hi Sports and dropped from No. 1 to third in the San Diego Section after a surprising (not to unhappy coach Troy Starr), 23-19 loss to Scottsdale Chaparral  of Arizona in one of the “Brothers in Arms” games last week at Cathedral.

Depending partly on  how Chaparral’s season plays out, the Highlanders dug themselves a hole in future state rankings, but they can start making up ground in two weeks against usually tough  Eastlake, which took a 14-13 loss from Whittier La Serna.

Game of the week  is Friday’s St. Augustine (2) tussle against Madison (4) at Mesa College.  The Saints stung Ramona on the road, 41-3, and Madison blew out El Capitan, 44-7.

Mission Hills moved up from second to supplant Helix at the top of the weekly Union-Tribune grid poll.  The Grizzlies beat a middle-of-the-road Los Angeles Crenshaw squad, 38-26.

Cal-Hi Sports‘ preseason top 50 included Helix at 12, Mission Hills, 17, Oceanside, 23, Cathedral, 35, and St. Augustine, 41.

LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON, LIKE GRANDSON

Lincoln graduate Gary Webb was a proud father watching his linebacker son Deron earn all-Grossmont League honors  35 years ago and Saturday he watched with pride another generation.

Webb’s grandson, Davis Webb, was the starting center for the Scottsdale Chaparral team that beat Helix.

Seated beside Gary was Deron Webb, Gary’s son.  Davis Webb is Deron’s son.

Deron Webb, now a successful Certified Public Accountant in the Phoenix area, was a member of the Helix squad that won the San Diego Section championship in 1980.

A 1980 teammate of Deron’s for coach Jim Arnaiz’ Scots was Jerry Schniepp, future San Diego Section commissioner.

    1. Gary Webb didn’t play football at Lincoln, so Deron and Davis are on a two-generation model. Three generations of players? I’m sure there are some. We’ll keep an eye out.
