Deirdre Newman D AILY PILOT COSTA MESA-The tragic de4th ot Costa Mesa High School football player Matt Colby on Sept. 29 left behind a grieving community that has since bonded together. In fact. the J,oss bas brought together two bitte.r rivalries, Colby's former high schools -Costa Mesa and Estancia. Colby, a defensive linebacker, wore No. 56 at Estancia for three years before trading in his Eagles jersey for a Costa Mesa Mustangs jersey sporting No. 9 this season. While the traditional, friendly rivalry between the two schools · became exacerbated in the spring with the exodus of Colby, Coach Dave Perkins and six other players, the tragedy has served as a bridge in bringing the two schools together in the healing process. "I'm surprised he touched so many lives,• said Mario Madas, a former teammate of Colby's at Estancia. "I A never thought Costa Mesa and Estancia would be so close.• Estanda and Costa Mesa have been rivals on the gridiron since Estancia opened in 1966, said David Brooks, school boa.rd president. Perkins coached and taught at Estancia for three years before leav- ing for Costa Mesa. Players from both teams rushed to the hospital the night of Sept. 28, when Colby fell while on the side- lines -the Costa Mesa players after their game ended and the Estancia players after they heard the news during their homecoming dance. •At the hospital. there were mem- bers of both teams there, so which 5Chool you went to didn't matter,• Brooks said. '"They were there for Matt and his mom showing their support." On Saturday, Sept. 29, Costa Mesa players came to Estancia's game at the Santa Ana Bowl and cheered on their longtime rivals, Brooks said And at a memorial service at Estancia on Wednesday night, more than 100 students from both schools joined together in an emotional out- pouring of support for Colby's fami- ly. Many brushed away tears as they shared theu favonte memories of Colby. •He aJways had something to say and a smtle on his face,• said Diane Alderete, Estanc1a's senior class president.

However, California ranks first in. boating fatalities and second in boating accidents for the year 2000, as reported in the 2000 California Boat- ing Safety Report prepared by the California Department of Boating and Waterways.

Police and city·officials are aware of those bugs and believe they can be fixed.

T he prospect of watching what ls supposedly a matchup of the top two high school football teams in the nation, or universe for that matter, was so alluring that more than 100 press credentials were issued and the lines of photographers up and dbwn the sidelines at Veterans Stadium in Long Beach Saturday night were second to only a Super Bowl. or college bowl game on New Year's Day. And, there's always the question of where do •we• stand in the great puzzle. How does Newport Harbor, or Corona del Mar, or Costa Mesa, or Estancia, measure up? So two great programs from opposite sides of the state with opposite personas took the field. Poly, the loosey-goosey Jackrabbits who have basically run everyone off the field for the past three years and bas been a recognized power for Roger Cartson PERSPECTM decades, against the familiar sight of a parochial powerhouse, where discipline and execution, along with a few well- placed imports, are the trademark. Most in Southern California felt the 116-game · winning streak De La Salle of Concord earned with it was in jeopardy. Poly sunply had too · many btg·time weapons with size, strength and speed all in the Jackrabbbtts' camp. And, Poly would be "up• for this one. There would be no '1ooldng past• syndrome to blame for any upset. What's more, surely t 16 victories in a row have come at the expense of numy mediocre pr<>gTams. So many of us surmised. So there they were, before 17,321 fans, as well as the television aews which spent most of the night slowing the momentum of both teams with their commercial breaks. When it was over the Spartans bad sent most of the crowd away disappointed, but for high school football fans, it was one of the most exquisite displays imaginable of bow to play the game. Beginning with pregame ceremonies of common respect for one another, to the aftermath. when both teems converged to the center of the field offering congratulations for a game well-played, lt was a masterpiece ot execution and near· misses. _ De La Salle displayed an ability to turn Poly's weapons into liabilities as the running game, and pusing game for that matter, consistently attacked back aaoss the grain. And, the Spartans had a weapon which bad not really swfaoed coming thto the game in the form ot 5-foot-7, 180-pound junior Maurice Drew, wbo lined up ln the backfield IO low to the ground perbapa the Jaclaabblta were not even awme be was there u they lined up.

"l'm glad we played the preseuon we did,• Noonan said of losses to Magnolia. Canyoo. Santa Ana Valley and Orange, which enter their respective league seasons a combined 10-S..l. "We saw some talent that is at least comparable to what we'll see in the Pacific Coast League. We saw some v~ good running backs and a couple senior- dominated teams and I think Lt really heJped our kids. I think we have a pretty good idea where we're headed.• The most recent learning experience came Friday in a 41-28 nonleague loss to Orange. Mueller Andenon Kapko field for five and six ·our otfen.se did some things well and I thought our defeme did a ~t Job,• Noonan said. •1 thought that was the best game our defense played all year. (Orange standout Durrell Moss) bad three big nma, Jncluding a oouple be just slipped out of tacldea. If not for tboee, he would have had about 120 yank. I felt vert good about that.• Moss, who conUnues to lead Orange County in rushing, surpaued the 1,000- yard made for the season and scored OD runs of 66, 30, 5 and t yards. •1t may not look like lt. but when you compare our g&JJle to the ones MOii has bad against other temm (induding 385 rushing yards against PCL title contender Universtty), I~ our guys did a beck of a job,• Noorufn said. Noonan singled out the defensive work of Jermaine Snell, Sean Hantman, Joey Mueller, Eric Anderson, Bqbba Kapko, nm Bat~ and Chad Sherril. Mueller, Anderson and Sbeni1 have all joined the team since the season began and Noonan said Kyle Casillas, another late addition w}lo played last year as a sophomore, sbo\*t allo bolster the Bagles quest for their f1tst victory. Estancia played the Panthers even through three quarters, but gave up 14 points within a span or 2:29 early in the final period and was outscored, 21-8, in the quarter. •our offense did not give eur defense the best advantage,• Noonan said of Orange's late surge. "Our offense needs to stay on the field tor more than two minutes a shot. Our defense was on the minutes at a ttm~. Who isn't going to get tired doing that?• ·we were talking about this as a staff Saturday and ~ think we finally have our personnel iii place,• said NOQnan, who considen the return of lineman Fernando Montes still more good news. Montes, a senior who started the opener at offensive tackle and defensive end, had been out since with a d.Jalocated shoulder. *Fernando will assume bis role at defensive end,• Noonan said. •And Ky~ will be eligible to play this week. He'!i going to be a backup quarterback and he'll wind up playing some at comerback." Noonan, however, saw continued progress from bis squad. wbicb will enter Friday's PCL opener against Coron.a del Mar healthy and bolstered by some late additions. SAILORS CONTINUED FROM 5 very well right now and doing a good job of taking care of the ball .• Defensively, productivity has been at least as impressive, if not more so. The Sailors' 28 points allowed are the fewest in Orange County. The job done by a defense without a single returning starter (senior Brian Gaeta has missed all but one ortensive series with tom ankle ligaments) is even more impressive, when one considers that two opposing touchdown drives have come with Newport reserves on the field. Brinkley points to a handful of special teams breakdowns as an area his team will need to improve, but. overall. admits he is *pleased with our progress.• Pleased and satisfied, however, are mutually exdusive in the Newport Harbor coaching consciousness. ·Like I tell our kids: Brlnkley said, •you're either getting better or you're getting worse. We've gotten better, but we certainly have some challenges ahead.• The Sailors first Sea View League challenge will be Aliso Niguel (3-1), which hosts the Tars Friday at 7 p.m. MUSTANGS CONTINUED FROM 5 Colby's dog, Chuck, to midfield for the pregame coin toss. SEA KINGS CONTINUED FROM 5 in 48 games, daUng back to the season-finale in 1996. Despite the winning record, Freeman delivered mixed reviews for his team's preleague campaign. ·we've made some big plays, offensively, but consistency bas burt us,• Freeman said. ·we've been able to move the ball, but we've been up and down. •Defensively, we seem to be just hanging on by our fingernails. • We bad a pretty good game against Westminster, but we let down a couple times and they scored. We need to play with more confidence and take command of things a UWe better.• Overall, Freeman would also like to see a return to the ~otional leve.l b1I team displayed in the '2·17 season- opening win over Cypress. •1 think we're letting all these (injuries) get to us, and lt bes put us in what I'd call survival mode,• Freeman said. ·we need to be more aggressive and be better able to attack.· including 323 on the ground. Mesa's six touchdowns also pushed its season point total to 212, more than halfway to the school single-season record set by Myron Miller's 1994 Mustangs, who S(;Ored 412 in played 11 games. Each Mesa player had a patch honoring Colby sewn onto their jersey and each Mustang wore a white No. 9 decaJ on the left side of his blade helmet. Several others wrote Colby's number on band towels, which hung from their belts. Arroyo Cablco Further, ln Mesa's last three games, including victories over Centennial of Canada and Ocean View, the Mustangs have scored a combined 153 points.
