'THE BLAZE'
TllOUll1S flOll 111 SCll•I: They say news is never
convenient. It wasn't this day either, as I was finish-
ing up a very long Sunday shooting the annual Spirit
Run and final round of Toshiba Senior Classic.
I literally had just hung up the phone after making
dinner plans with the family when, In the back-
ground, I heard radio ta/Jc about a structure fire in
Costa Mesa. I was waJUng for the normal response of
"nothing showing, investigating,"· which 1s a majority
of fire calls.
J was gathering my stuff to leave when the radio
dispatcher warned units racing to the acene that sev-
eral calls continued to come in about the lire. If a Jot
of people are calllng, usually it's bad.
CAUSE Of FIRE
mLL UlllllOWI
Fire officials are still
investigating the cause of a
fire that consumed an two-
story office building on
PUBLIC
SAFETY
Brioso Drive in
Costa Mesa.
Investigators
could not enter
the building until Tuesday
morning when the building
could be made safe for
them to proceed with their
investigation.
The 10,000-square-foot
builciing that housed about
11 offices, was severely dam-
aged structurally and will
most likely be tom down.
Officials are still in the
process of determining the damages.
I waited and listened, car keys In hand, dinner In
mind. So many times a fire ls attacked quickly and
under control within 10 minutes. This was ditferent.
The urgency and tone of the visual reports from the
scene, as heard over the radio, proved this was for
real and would be big.
I sped to the scene. Watching the police hf!licopter
from mi/es away. I couldn 't imagine what it was.
Nothing was visible until I turned left on WhilUer
Street and saw the glow In the sky.
For Don Leach's full column on covering
Sunday's fire at a Brioso Lane business complex,
see •Photographer's Notebook" in features at
www.dallypilot.com.
It took 100 firefighters from five cities to put out the blaze that burned out of control for four hours the
night of March 11. Firefighters poured more than 4,000 gallons of water per minute to put out the flames
that shot up 40 to 50 feet.
They also tried to keep neighboring buildings cool to prevent the.fire from spreading. Despite their
efforts, the fire that was probably more than 1,000 degrees, melted a vinyl curtain at a n~ghborlng resi-
dence and ignited drapes by the window.

Stewart, who died in 1987, was
named poet laureate by the city in
1978. Here's an excerpt from one of his
poems, to show bow funny Stewart
could be.
It's from "The Phase on the Bath-
room Floor,• which refers to the city's
1957 water shortage and was given to
the Daily Pilot by former mayor Bob
Shelton. Shelton had asked for sugges-
tions on saving water back then. One
of them was to put a brick in the toilet
tank, and so Stewart submitted his
poem to the city council.
The first stanza reads:
"Dear City Council, I rush,
To inform you, the thought makes
me blush,
That I 've put in the bricks
But my toilet now sticks
Newport Beach's poet laureate T. Duncan Stewart and his wife, Jerry.
And the darn thing refuses to
flush."
Newport Beach's folk heroes.
Among the middle stanzas are these
The third stanza continues: lines:
"Dear Council. I won't be evasive,
Your kindness is highly persuasive,
But beyond my control
del Mar Civic Assn. eventually made
him chru.r of its acquisition committee.
Stewart and tus wife also held numer-
ous fund-raisers for th~ city.
His building accomplishments
included solar-energy homes.
"Or silently return below
From whence I called you up today,
And through the ages you wiil row
To help me fashion Newport Bay. The bricks in the bowl
Are now lodged, and they're very
abrasive."
Stewart was a Kansas native who
studied through a music scholarship at
the Juilliard School in Manhattan and
moved to Newport Beach with his wile
Jerry m 1949.
The Newport Harbor Chamber of
Commerce named him ·Man of the
Year" more than two decades ago and
he won the Orange County Bar Assn. 's
Liberty Bell Award and others.
I have such wondrous plans for it -
We 'll have a city that's~ gem;

point that I decided I needed
to l04m more about other
languages.
But no matter from
whence you came, you have
to love St. Patrick's Day. Uke
Labor Day and Valentine's
Day. it's one of those won-
derfully ditzy holidays
whose origins are largely
forgotten. and which now
serve as an excuse for us to
have fun and for stores to
have sales. And no, we're
not bemg sacrilegious.
Let's brush up on our St.
Patrick's lore. The person we
refer to as St. Patrick lived in
the 5th century and was, of
all things, British. When he
was 16, he was kidnapped
from his home in Britain by
Irish marauders (marauding
was a big thing in those
days) and thrown into slav-
ery in Ireland. He escaped
after six years, was recap-
tured, then finally found his
way back to Britain. So we
know be was persistent. if
nothing else.
A devout Christian,
Patrick vowed he would
return to Ireland as a mis-
sionary and did just that.
Patrick spent his last years in
County Down, where be died
on March 17, in the year 461.
Your basic, requisite St.
Patrick legends are that he
drove the snakes out of Ire-
land and into the sea, which
is false, and that he used a
three-leafed shamrock to
explain the doctrine of the
Thnity, which is true. And
that's where the "wearing of
the green• business comes
from. Early Irish Christians
wore the shamrock as a reli-
gious symbol, especially on
St. Patrick's Day.
OK, fine. But bow did all
this green stuff jump across
the big pond? The Irish were
among the earliest immi-
grants to America, arriving
as early as 1700. The first St.
Patrick's Day Parade was
held in New York in 1779 by
Irish recruits serving with the
British Anny. But with the
Great Famine of 1846, mil-
lions of Irish men dnd
women set out for America.
Because so many men were
named Patrick, after you-
know-who, they were qwck-
ly nicknamed • Paddys, • and
later on, "Pats.· The "Paddy
Wagon• was so named in
Boston and New York
because so many cops were
•Paddys. •
In fact, our language is
shot through with lnsh denv-
a lives. ·Shanty,• from • sean
tig" for old house: "she-
bang.• from "shebeen,· an
early lnsb speakeasy; and
"sauthereen, • from.
·snudirin, • mearung •small
fragment."
Now then, that leaves but
one question. How will you
celebrate this glorious St.
Patrick's Day? A Patty party?
Green beer? Corned beef
and cabbage? Fine. But
when you're through with all
that, make sure you get your
Blarney Stone down to Skosh
Monahan's, which is on

BECOMING A VIXEN
Last month, during a lun-
cheon al the subtly-decorated
Napa Rose restaurant in
Anaheim, heads turned as the
Vixens made their way in and
out of the dining room with their
flamboyant red heads cllld pur-
ple clothes
Felton wore a red straw hat
with vioJet Dowers and a purple
s uit lined with satin purple
prints. Paula Croswell also wore
a purple suit but with a bluer,
satin button-d own shirt and a
red hat that sprouted blue and
red flowers. Linda Sutherland
layered a purple dress over a
while shirt dnd topped the
ensemble with d red felt hat
fluffed up with dll Angora trim.
The Vixe ns were poste r
women for fun.
"It's a wonderful s td ge of
life,· said 58-year-old Becky
Coleman, one of the origmdl

me, it's planning and looking
forward to things. I'm very moti-

Last December, she held the
first meeting.of the Vixens with
four close friends who've cele-
brated birthdays together for
more than 20 years. Each person
invited a guest and so the group
numbered 10.
They decided on the chapter

On the other side, palm trees

"I don't think it has an~

baby-sit and took twns taking
time off from work when all the·

and t.ook more than thiee weeks

for decorating and hanging on

More cicy m~ney
for El Toro airport
risky and unwise
F or the last 10 years, near-
ly $11 million in tax
money from the resi-
dents of Newport Beach
has gone toward the
planning and pushing for an air-
port at El Toro.
Oh yeah, that $10.94 million to
be exact is just city money and it
doesn't count the $50 million in
county tax dollars (Newport
Beach and Costa Mesa pocket-
books included) that have gone
toward Ute same effort, an effort
that took a major blow at the bal-
lot box this month.
Now, we hear nunblmgs that
Ute pro-EI Toro airport forces
aren't finished spending money
yet. That lhey will be asking for
more money from the Newport
Beach City Counal to pursue
Ute11 pro-El Toro efforts in the
courtroom and elsewhere.
We urge Newport Beach lead-
ers to act with caution and guard
the taxpayers from what may
become an even bigger monetary
loss.
The pbility to overturn the
Measure W vote, which called for
rezoning-the closed Marine base
from aviation use to recreational
use, will be a difficult if not
impossible talk.
Still, we're sure that the legal
minds and political analysts of the
Airport Working Group and the
Citizens for Jobs and the Econo-
my will be makihg the case to go
forward.
Those groups most likely will
need a big infusion of cash to do
so, and after enjoying the use of
millions in taxpayer money over
the years, who would blame them
for not wanting to shut off the
spigot?
But the council needs to resist
or, at the very least. ask for a full
accounting if any cash is sent that
way.
Recently, we asked for such
an accounting of bow the Air-
port Working Group has been
spending taxpayer funds. So far,
we have yet to get answer from
either city or working group
officials.
We presume there have been
major battles won with those mil-
lions, namely two countywide
measures passed in favor of an
airport and the overtwning of
Measure F in the courts.
Again, we can only just pre-
sume, since we haven't been
handed the details.
Even if we were, we can't help
but note there is a big difference
in the fatally flawed Measure F
and the recently passed Measur~
W, which was clearly built to
withstand court challenges.
An even bigger loss is that of
longtime El Toro proponent
county Supervisor Cynthia Coad,
who has been replaced by vocal
El Toro adversary Chris Norby.
With Norby in Coad's seat, the
board majority will take a tilt
toward South County's anti-air-
port position.
Indeed, Supervisor Jim Silva
even talked of backing down
from his pro-airport stance if
Measure W p.Used.
And don't forget that the Navy
has already put the wheels in
motion to sell off the land to the
highest private bidder, which
would doom any plans for avia-
tion forever.
The council needs to keep that
all in mind.
Even if more money is to be
spent on pursuing the El Toro
dream, the obstacles to ever see-
ing an airport at that site are
enormous.
And with the odds stacked
that high, better that private
funds are used in those efforts
and not risk losing even more
than the $10.9 million the New-
port taxpayers have probably
alreedy lost.
So many terrifying scenes
I t has been a ternfyulg few
weeks in Newport-Mesa, in
particular for the residents of
Ute Monticello Town Homes
Complex. The fires -two at the
complex, one at a tailor shop,
another that destroyed a Udo Isle
home, an absolute inferno that
gutted a building on the Westside
bluffs and, finally. one that gutted
a Newport Coast home in con-
struction -occurred in a string,
one happening seemingly just as
the embe.r.i of the last were dying
out.
The list of victims is heart-rend-
ing. as would be expected. A man
dead in one and several families
temporarily without shelter after
the explosive early morning blaze
at the Monticello complex. 1Wo
families left more pennanenUy
homeless as their homes are
engulfed. Businesses with still
uncounted losses after a late-night
fire a week ago.
What is terrifying about It all is
how quickly and unexpectedly it
can happen. Without warning,
families were shaken from the11
beds, awakened from dreams. In
the ashes, other dreams are lost
forever.
And there is no telling when it
will happen or where it will hap-
pen. The flames can attack us in
our homes, where we should feel
safe. Our homes can go up
because of a mistake by a neigh-
bor or even a simple, innocent
accident
It is the very definition of terror.
Thankfully, such aises also
showcase our better natures. Our
firefighters and other safety per-
sonnel -police, paramedics -
have handled each scene with
care and grace. Neighbors have
come together to lend support.
family memben have shouldered
their loved ones' burdens.

Majority of RV owners aren't large gorillas
'8 00-Pound Gorilla.~ That is • the way RV owners are por-
trayed by a cartoon tn the
Pilot's March 10 edition. We can
only surmise that the newspaper
was following the lead of the may-
or and some council members
wlio have publicly accused us of
intimidation.
Such actions on the part of our
elected leaders and the press
serve no purpose other than to fos-
ter d.Msiveness, pitting neighbor
against neighbor.
The vast IDAjority of us are
decent people. We are mostly mid-
dle-class, middle-aged and older,
married with kids and own a
home that doesn't move. Our RVs
are the core of family recreational
activity and our second borne on
wheels. We are as dimlayed as
the rest of the community 1s over
reports of threats and Other outlaw
acts.
ln the interests of coo~tion,
we bAve made numerous pJ.eas to

the time at home lo prepare for
travel and to unpack and clean up
when we return.
For a long trip, that can take up
to the 72 hours allowed under the
existing ordinance.
There are obviously those who
abuse the 72-hour rule, which the
police say they are unable to .
enforce as wntten That is the crux
of the problem
The &Olution seemingly favored
by the council ma1ority is a new
ordinance that punishes the law-
abiding ma1ority along with the
scofflaws. It requires that we go
pe110na.lly to the Polite Depart-
ment for two permits, one to load
and another to unload, each time
we use our RVs.
The same permit reqtllfement
applies to the trailers that your
boats, jet skis and motorbikes are
on. It also makes it Wegal for a vis-
itor in an RV to park on the street

resources better spent on more
important protection and law
enforcement concerns.
The council's police staff bas
proposed an alternative that will
modify the existing ordinance to
make it enforceable. Jt avoids the
complex. costly and burdensome
permit system entirely.
The council will make the
choice. Sotne of them have said
that their goal is to make the
majonty happy. How simple lt
would be if that were all that is
required. A vote against the RV
owners would be the easy call. We
are the minority, but this is not a

on street parkiiig between 2 a.m.
and 6 a.m. Adoption ts unlikely

supporting a reasonable and oost-

e play's the thing
Jerry Patch, dramaturge and director of SCR's 5th Pacific Playwrights Festival, dilkusses the changes to this year's event
-'E very sununer for the past
four years, South Coast
Repertory has presented
readings, workshQps and
productions of new plays as part of
the Pacific Playwrights Festival
New works by Rkhard Greenberg,
Donald Marmmes. Amy Freed and \. more have appeared on SCR stages,
several going on to full productions
in Costa Mesa and elsewhere.
nus year everything will be a lit-
tle different. as the theate r company
prepares to renovate its existing
stages dfld open a new theater by
the fall. The festival has been sepa-
rated from the Hispanic Playwrights
Project, and the dates have been
moved to April 26-28 (although pre-
views of the two main productions
-"The Dazzle" and "Getting
Frankie Married -and After-
wards" -will open in late March).
Jerry Patch, d.ramaturge and
director of the festiWI, sat down
with Features Editor Jennifer K
Mahal to Wk about the changes
and what makes the Pacific Play-
wrights Fesbval so special.
How was the ded.sion made to
split the festival this year, so that the
Hispanic Playwrlghfs Pro)ed wW be
held In the summer, while the main
festival is In Aprlll
It was necessitated by the con-
structJon that we're doing. The con-
struction for the new theater and the
refwbishment of the existing facility is
going to force us to dose from around
the first of May to the first of October
because the whole front of the build-
ing is coming off and they're going to
redo the lobby and other things.
We really just didn't have the
space or the time (for both). We were
barely able to sandwich the Pacific
Playwrights Festival in at the end of
April. We also wanted to bring ·eau-
fomia Scenarios• back,·a show that
we inaugurated last y~ and we are
going to reprise it. It's outdoors in
Noguchi Garden, the sculpture gar-
den we call California Scenario, and
the end of April is just not when you
want to be sitting outdoors.$<>. first of
August is fine and that's when we'll
do it, late July and August.
When ls the festival generally
heldl
For the first four years we did 1t,
we ran it in June .... We put it as late
as we could, it's literally a week
before we close the building that it's
taking place this year. Next year, it's
going to happen in May, and it will
probably stay there a while. This
has to do with ow new production
calendar.
How bas the playwrights festival
grown in the last four yearsl
We really started out with the aspi-
ration to Slmply hold a regional play
development festival. I had worked
for almost 10 years at the Sundance
Institute in Utah, and when th.at affili-
ation ended, we thought well, play
development was sort of drying up in
the festival sense. The Bay Area Play-
wnghts Conference had stopped. The
Los Angeles Theater Center, which
had a Jot of new play development.
was gone. So we thought this would
be an interesting thing to do just
regionally. And it turned out by the
second one that this was a national
event and it very quickly has become
thal It's gone from sort of a regional
tdee to a national one.
It's also evolved into something
that beoome a source of new plays for
other theaters. We're very eager for
that to happen. You know, many of
• the plays we've produced, but we're
always delighted to see other theaters
produce the plays that COlJle through
the festival.
OW' sort or poster child Is Amy
Freed's play •nie Beard of Awn.•
which was here last year and which
got siX other productions in its ftrst
year and at some ot the leading the-
aters 1n the country. And that play has
not yet been to New York.
Normally the circuit is a play goes
to New York. it gets recognized and
. then people do it across the country.
That's even been true of plays that
we've done here like "Wit" or "Col-
lected Stories,• "Sight Unseen.•
·Three Days of Rain" -they will go
to New York, they're anointed in
New York and then they get done all
over the country. We really like this
idea that they can be done all over
the country first. It's a good thing for
the writer because It makes playwrit-
ing a viable way to make a living for
them instead of having to write tele-
vision or movies 1ust to make a living,
or whatnot.
What play in the festival's history
bas gone on to be the most success-
ful, in your oplnlonl
Well, I think ·Tue Beard of Avon·
is probably the short answer. There
are a number of them. •Everett
Beekm. • Richard Greenberg's play,
went from here to Naw York. There's
two by Greenberg that have gone on
and 1*en done in New York and
around the country. •Beginning of
August.• Tom Donaghy's play, got
done here and in New York. •Mys-
tery of Attraction• has been around.
But I think if we're going to say
which is the most successful. it's prob-
ably "The Beard of Avon.• There's a
play by David Lind.say-Aha.ire, "Kim-
berly Akimbo.• that won a major lit-
erary prize last year ....
How are the plays that are in the
festival cbosenl
Plays come to us from agents. They
come from writers. They come from
other theaters who submit them for
inclUSJon m the festival. And I and my
colleague. Jennifer Kiger and I read
them, and Linda Sullivan Baity, who
this IS her first year on staff. So the
three of us read them and essentially
the plays that we think a.re at the top
of the heap, we pass on to David
Enunes and Martin Benson. And then
the five or us talk about them, and
that's how the plays get picked.
Do you have any spedflc criteria
for the plays or do you sort of rely on
knowing what you like when you see
ltJ
Very much that Writers very often
ask us, "Wbat ve you loolcing for?•
And the answer ts exactly that, we
laiow it when we see it But we don't
think we're as smart as the writers
and we almost never ask a wrlter to
write to a particular vlsion or idea. We
do that for some ol our edualtional
touring shows. in order to fit with cur-
rlculum. But, normally th& most we'll
ever do is a wnte.r will say, ·wen. l've
got two or three plays 1n my head.
I've got this ldee. and this idea and
thiS idea.· And we will say ·wen. Y9U
know, thiS one,• -we're tA1king
about a play, them wribng a commis-
sion for us -•this one is probably
more within the parameter of bemg
produced here.•
That's as close as we ever gei to
being prescriptive.
How many of the plays In the
festtval are commissioned versus
submlttedt
I'd say in any given year it's a Uurd
to a half. And the reason that it's so
high is we commission a lot of plays. I
would guess th.at our outstanding
cormrussions right now might total the
next two or three theaters combined.
How do you determine which
plays get a full staging versus the
ones that are readingsl
In previous years. we have had
workshop productions of plays, and
we don't tlu.s year because Richard
Green~rg's •Tue Dazzle" IS on stage
getting a full production. One or the
conceits we have is that we like to
bring plays back from the preceding
festival in full production. So Uus year
"Getting Frankie Married," Horton
Foote's play, is. was in last year's festi-
val. So now people who ca.me last
year to the reading can now see it
done in full. We think that's fun. I
hope they think it's fun too.
We may well go back, when we
are finished with this construction. to
including a workshop production in
the festival. Generally those slots have
tended to go to younger writers who
really would benefit more from hav-
ing a more fully realized productJon
and a longer rehearsal period.
How do you achieve the balance
between the up-and-coming play-
wrights and the ones who are more
established, such as Richard Green-
berg and Beth Henleyl
Tius is a nobon that I came up with
at Sundance that -I don't claun it's
original with me, but I didn't learn it
from anybody -that one year when I
had Tom Murphy at Sundance and
Donald Margulies and Howard
Korder, who are two front ranked
American playwrights who were
there, and then we had some younger
writers.
And sort of the stratification of the
playwriting community there was
really interesting because everyone
there knew that Tom Murphy was the
great wrtte.r that was on the m~un
tain. I mean be was an international
writer of significance. And they also
knew that Donald and Howard bad
good careeB, you know Donald bad
recently won th Pulitzer and it was-
n't like they were chopped liver. And
then there were these kids who were
kind ot starting out and ~ had all
ot that enthusiasm and th.at sort ol
lDlpb9d Mulphy a.o.d Howard and
Oooald a.od took them beck to wben
they were starting.
So, there was Uus land of symbio-
sis or synergy that came out of artists
bemg at different stages m their
careers that they sort of bounced off
of one another, and that really
impressed me. I though this is a good
way to do this. And you can't do it all
the time, but for sure this year the -
Richard and, certainly, Horton Foote,
who is an American master, Beth
Henley, who is a Pulitzer Prize win-
ner. those are the establ!Shed writers.
And then Julia Cho, Julia Jordan,
Steven Drukman and, really Lynn
Nottage is somewhere in between
Beth Henley and the three I Just men-
tioned .... So you just try to slot it that
way so there are reference points.
Qwte honestly, 1t also makes writ-
ers more comfortable with one anoth-
er and reduces the possibility that
anything like tlns becomes competi-
bve, because all wnters want their
plays produced. That's what they
wanl And If there are seven other
writers in the. room. there are seven
other people who want their play pro-
duced, and there are only so many
slots.
What ls your favorite part of
putting this togetber1
You're talking to me, but this
whole theater supports this operation,
and I thrill every year to how good
they are at it, from the people who
plan the lunches to the tech depart-
·ment that arranges rehearsal spaces. I
mean, I just don't have to worry about
that stuff. it's all taken care ol and it's
beautiful the way that happens ....
I Wee picking the plays, I like find-
ing plays to do. I think we have a
good time dOIDg that And then it's
fun to see this community ame
together and to see ad<n -it's inter-
esting the level of actor you can get
for a four day play reading as
opposed to a ten week nm. oommrt-
ment to rehearse a play for four
weeks and play it for six. People who
are in television series or who have
substantial film c~ will not do the
play. they can't find the time. But for
four days, they like to come out end
scratch their theater itch. You tend to
wind up with some kind of power-
• house C4Sl And sometimes the plays
are well served by that and some-
times it just doesn't matter, but it
g:tves a frisson to the whole thi.Dg.
And, ag.pn, if you are a young
~writer, to have the star ot a televisioo
series, you knOw, to have a Jane Ka:z-
mareck or Brad Whitford rwHng
your play is ·wow, 1 guess rm 1'0l1h

Scott Wman~ is trying to help lead Orange Coast College to
a state title after overcoming bigger challeng~s of his own.
Stew Virgen
DAILY PILOT
V olleyball and family had
always been synonymous in
Scott Winant's life. He was
raised in the sport. But. last yearl
volleyball became an antipathy.
Wlnant's mother, Sally Buselt, 46,
died in. a car acd.dent in January
2001 and her son's life would never
be the same. The pain and
depression was too.much and
Winant, who is now the starting
setter for the undefeated Orange
Coast College men's volleyball team
(13--0), no longer wanted to play his
favorite game.
However, Wlnant overcame his
sense of lou with the help of
memories of h1a mother. who would
have wanted her son to continue
playing and competing.
•When I play, I have a picture of
her that I keep with me in the pocket
of my aborts,• Wlnant said. •she
would want me to continue to play."
With that motivation and the
constaJ;lt support from bis
family, induding his father
and former Costa Mesa High
boys volleyball coach Jerry
Winant, Scott has elevated his
game this season and is helping
guide OCC in its quest for a state
title.
Scott discovered the tra gic news
of his mother's death less than a
month before his season began for
Irvine Valley College.
•It was real hard for me,• he
said. "When I wu younger I was
close to her and I wu getting doser
to her. It wu hard to see that go
away. And I just kept playing
through my mind: The memories
and different thing• that she
wouldn't be able to see me do now.•
Scott'• family convinced him that
h1a mother would want him to
play on.· And so he did. Yet soon his
zest for life, never mind his love for
the game, wu challenged. His
grades dropped. His personality
changed. His desire for
competiti.?n, gone.
Scott would see pare.nts,
end other mothen, come cheer
for his teammates et Irvine Valley
and that nearly drove him to quit,
But, Jerry Winant told his son to
keep playing. Sometimes,
volleyball can be just the right
therapy.
•Under different drcumstances I
would have recommended him not
to play,• said Jerry Wlnant. who ·
wu a setter at Cal State Pullerton,
where he meet his late ex-wile Sally
Bu.sell, alto a setter for the 1ltam.
•I think volleyball wu helpful. I'm
really proud that he ceme back. I'm
really proud of how well he's done.
It was tough for him when his mom
died. Just to stay in school WU
tough.•
Scott inaeased h1a effort
throughout.each.match during last
season and dedicated lt all to hi.I
mother. He earned All-Orange
Empire Conference second-team
honors and bis hunger for
competition was renewed.
Unfortunately, Irvine Valley could
not fulfill bis goals of winning a
state tiUe, Scott said.
He wanted to go back to the
school and the coach who had
red.shirted him in his first year. OCC
Coach Chuck Cutenese, who
played for Costa Mesa High under
Jerry Wlnant. welcomed Scott back.
Cutenese's squad lost in the state
final to Loa Angeles Pierce, and
Scott witnessed the match. The next
day he called his former coach and
they began to talk of plans for the
following season.

to come.

crown at Edison High.
HUNTINGTON BEACH-Newport
Harbor High's Sailor:s swept to vtctodes
over Marina and Edison in the quar-
terlinals and semlflnals of the Orange
Counfy Volleyball Championships
Saturday at Edison High, sending the
Tars into Monday night's champkmlhlp
s}lowdown with Northwood, at 1 p.m.
"Northwood, that's the Irvine
freshman team, short one player, which
was undefeated as freshmen three
years ago,• said Newport Harbor boys
volleyball coach Dan Glenn. who found
himself in a very good mood after his
Sailors came through at every turn on
Saturday.
Winners in pool play twice on Friday,
the Sailors were nevertheless in the
position of not even making th~ quar-
terfinals should they lose in two to a
very strong Santa Margarita dub in
the last pool play match Saturday
morning. ·
Harbor, behind the ki1la of Erlk
Peterson (10), Greg Perrine (nine), Brian
Gaeta (seven) and Jamie Diefenbach
(seven) pulled out a 17-15, 15-9 win
over Santa Margarita.
Marina was the first hurdle in the
final eight, and after falling behind,
8-1, the Sailors rallied to win, 17-15,
10-15, 15-11, the final game in rally
scoring.
The key to the match came at the
1-8 juncture, and Glenn said ·we kind
of got a bead on them and realized
the.tr style.
"My guys aren't really too good at
listening to my scouting reports. They
seem to have to witness lt for
themselves.•
Once the Sailors realized the style
and situation, they were back In the
hunt.
Peterson had 17 kills, Perrine 17
kills, Gaeta eight kills and Diefenbach
seven kills.
In the semifinal after splitting the
first two sets, 6-15, 15-11, the host
Chargers of Edison jumped to a 10""6
lead in the rally set before the Sallon
came back to cla1m a 15-13 verdict.
Perrine bad 17 kills and h1a brothdr,
