Highlighting the fi rst week of play under the new lights at George Allen Field on the cam-pus of Long Beach State, head coach Mauricio Ingrassia and the women’s soccer team welcomed back the alumni for a friendly match last Friday night. “We wanted to share this with everyone that had a hand in mak-ing this program what it is,” In-grassia said earlier this year when he announced the game. His pro-gram reached new heights last year by winning a second-straight Big West Conference Tourna-ment, winning three games in the NCAA Tournament to reach the Elite Eight round, and winning

over the hearts of Long Beach sports fans — soccer or other-wise. “Our community has a bet-ter opportunity to come enjoy our games (at night),” Ingrassia says about what the lights can do for his program and the school. “Playing at 3 p.m. makes it dif-fi cult for people to get from work or school… It’s also a different feel for recruiting… Now we can create an atmosphere at night for the community and the high qual-ity teams that will come here to play.” As for the Alumni Game itself, the 2012 49ers used their superior fi tness to control the second half and win, 6-2. But that was after the former 49ers showed they

still have some game left in the tank. One minute and 40 seconds into the game, 2010 Big West Midfi elder of the Year Lindsay Bullock chipped a ball high over the back line to the feet of 2011 Big West Midfi elder of the Year Shawna Gordon, who dinked it home off of the far-side post. Just 35 seconds later, sopho-more forward Ashely Roese took a point blank shot at the other end and the rebound off of goalkeeper Kaitlyn Gustaves — the 2011 Big West Scholar-Athlete who made 14 saves in the wide-open game — was slotted home by junior Si-erra Mack. Roese scored again 33 seconds

RYAN ZUMMALLEN The Long Beach Motorsports Walk of Fame sure announced itself with a vicious burnout. With its inaugural inductee class in 2006, the Walk of Fame enshrined per-haps the two greatest American racing drivers ever: Phil Hill and Dan Gurney. The word most commonly associated with Hill is “hero,” and Gurney helped found the Grand Prix of Long Beach and is the only American to win a Formula One race in a car of his own design. Es-teemed company, to say the least. The following two years both inducted a three-member class, again chock full of the biggest names in American motors-port. By the time of the 2011 class, the Long Beach Motorsports Walk of Fame in-cluded pioneers like Mario Andretti and Parnelli Jones, former land speed record-holder Gary Gabelich and the two most successful open-wheel racing teams in history. The enshrined included six driv-ers with Formula One experience and ac-

BY MIKE GUARDABASCIOSPORTS EDITOR

There are two kinds of energy at work in the world: kinetic, and potential. That’s lesson one of day one of every Intro to Physics class. Rather than reach into the textbook for a laundry list of examples, any teacher constructing their lesson plans on the subject should feel free to use last week’s LBCC men’s volleyball matches as their opening illustration. They are to be their last two matches at home, in the tiny Vikings Gym on campus, before the state championships. In the fi rst match, against No. 9 Moorpark, the unani-mous No. 1 Vikings are the paper favor-ites. They walk into their home gym with

a 13-1 overall record, and a 6-1 mark in the Western State Conference. Moorpark is just 8-6, and 3-4 in conference. The Vi-kings are playing to clinch a fourth straight conference championship. The Raiders are playing to even their conference slate at 4-4. There’s just one problem: that pesky “one” at the end of Long Beach’s near-perfect record came at the hands of the Raiders, a month earlier. First year co-head coach Matt Silva’s biggest concerns are Moorpark’s left-side block, which was effective in neutralizing Long Beach’s op-posite hitters in their fi rst meeting. The Vikings have effectively run their offense through the right side of the net with

Jo’Lon Clark and Max Wechsung this sea-son, so that matchup is troublesome. His other concern is that his team will be so fi red up to get revenge that they won’t make the routine plays that got them the 13 wins, to go with that loss. From the fi rst point, the gym is buzzing with energy. The stands are full, with some fans sitting on each other’s laps to make room. A dozen Polynesian LBCC football players stand just to the side of the stands, yelling “Click-click…BOOM!” every time a Viking player jump-serves. Their taunts visibly affect the Raiders servers, and Moorpark’s head coach asks the chair ref to do something almost nobody has been

able to do this year, and make Long Beach shut up. But Silva’s worries come to life from the start. Long Beach goes up early in the first frame, and lead 21-18. But the excitement in the gym, the anticipation of eve-ning their score with the Raiders, forces them into uncharacteristic mistakes. Three hitting and ser-vice errors flip the set, as Moor-park closes on a 6-2 run. Again in the second set, Long Beach leads big, 21-15, but more errors force a stumble, and a marathon 30-28 decision in favor of the Raiders. To their credit, LBCC’s will re-mains unbroken, and they’re tied

at 21 in the third set, before an unblocked kill and a spike into the antenna turn the tide, and they go down 26-24, 30-28, 25-23. “We’re playing hard, but dumb,” says Silva as the din of the match is dying down, and the packed stands are emptying. Behind him, a frustrated group of Vikings is stretching in a circle on the floor. “We gave it 150%, but without any IQ.” LBCC committed a season-high 25 hitting errors, and nine service errors, handing 34 of Moorpark’s 81 points to them on a silver platter. It’s the kind of match that gives coaches acid re-flux: especially new ones.The Coaches Matt Silva and Jonathan Cha-

rette work out of a small office that’s adjacent to Viking Gym, in the LBCC Physical Education building. The nameplate on their door still reads “Randy Totorp,” although Totorp has moved 40 feet down the hall and more than a few rungs up the departmental ladder, taking over as Men’s Ath-letic Director this year. In his eight years as head coach of the Vikings, Totorp won the WSC title seven times, and was state champion three times. Those are the shoes that Silva and Charette are stepping into. It’s a pressure that neither say they’re feeling. “To tell you the truth, this thing is a machine that Randy has

counted for five Indy 500 victo-ries, plus 15 Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach wins.

The Walk of Fame drew larger and larger crowds of devoted rac-ing addicts and emerged as the premier kick-off event for the biggest annual extravaganza in the city, the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. Hey, if you’re going to make an entrance, why not do it with a splash?

This year, the annual event will honor and celebrate the accom-plishments of driver Scott Pruett and team Galles Racing. It’s a touching tribute to two under-appreciated figures in the racing world. And it’s a sign that the Long Beach Motorsports Walk of Fame may have found its fuel tank running on E. Not to say that Pruett and Galles aren’t deserving of recognition. Pruett has built a sterling career of more than 25 years, earning his reputation as a versatile driver

who can take anything with an engine to its limit and beyond. Meanwhile, Galles Racing won five consecutive Grand Prixes of Long Beach and captured the 1992 Indy 500. They each de-serve a special place in the halls of American auto racing. Pruett twice finished on the Grand Prix of Long Beach po-dium, but never won. He did cap-ture victories in the Grand-Am and Trans-Am series races here, but his resume is bolstered by the trophies he earned at places like Le Mans and Daytona. As seen with Danny Sullivan and Jimmy Vasser — inductees with one Long Beach victory each — drivers can earn a place on the Long Beach Motorsports Walk of Fame based on their success in the overall world of motorsports. But each of their cases are greatly bolstered by their Long Beach wins, and if the very good but not quite legendary Pruett has gained admission, then what exactly is the criteria to make the Walk of Fame? In some ways, Galles Racing is another head scratcher. They did win five consecutive Grand Prixes of Long Beach between 1988 and 1992, but that may have had something to do with having Al Unser Jr. behind the wheel. In fact, Galles won 21 overall races in 22 years of operation, but only three of them without Unser Jr (those three were driven by Sul-livan and fellow inductee Bobby Rahal). So, though deserving of en-shrinement due to those five

straight wins, Galles Racing clearly benefited from their driv-ers more than their drivers ben-efited from the team, and it’s hard to argue that their resume stacks up against Target Chip Ganassi and Newman/Haas, the other two teams in the Walk of Fame. All of this is to say that the Long Beach Motorsports Walk of Fame may have run their car too hard in the first few laps. After in-ducting a jaw-dropping roster in its first six classes, there was no way the event could keep that momentum rolling. The induc-tions of Pruett and Galles Racing are mismatched against the likes of Andrettis and Gurneys, and it leaves the future of the Walk of Fame mired in uncertainty. Front-runners for future in-duction may include three-time Grand Prix of Long Beach win-ner Sebastien Bourdais (’05-’07) and four-time winner Paul Tracy (1993, 2000, ’03-’04). But they also seemed to be more qualified than Pruett this year, so the Walk of Fame may be shying away from them either because they are too recent or because of a lack of star power. Another possibility could lie in the event’s early years, when Formula One ran the streets of Long Beach from 1976-83. Mario Andretti is the only winner from that time period to have been en-shrined, and that may have more to do with his three additional IndyCar wins than his single F1 victory here. The Walk of Fame could dip into its F1 past by honoring leg-

ends that captured the check-ered flag in Long Beach such as Nelson Piquet (’80), Niki Lauda (’82), or the late Gilles Ville-neuve (’79). But again, any of these three would have been fine choices for induction this year, so perhaps they are not under con-sideration. From a team standpoint, leg-endary Penske Racing has found the winner’s circle four times, and former Champ Car co-owner Kevin Kalkhoven has a close rela-tionship with Grand Prix of Long Beach brass and his KV Racing team won the event in 2008. Whatever the case, we’re un-likely to see a trio of inductees ever again, let alone one with the star power of the 2008 Andretti-Jones-Gabelich inductee class. This is less an indictment of any shortcomings associated with Pruett and Galles, and more confusion as to why the Walk of Fame chose to immediately raise the bar to stratospheric levels that couldn’t possibly be reached with future classes. Scott Pruett and Galles Racing have carved out impressive places in automotive history and deserve to be recognized, enshrined even, for what they have accomplished in Long Beach over the years. They are now an eternal part of a pillar in the world of racing. Scott Pruett and Galles Racing will be inducted into the Long Beach Motorsports Walk of Fame in a ceremony at 11 a.m. today, Thursday, April 12, in front of the Convention Center on South Pine Avenue.

COASTAL ALLIANCE


had running perfectly for the last eight years,” says Silva, who was Totorp’s assistant throughout that entire stretch, in addition to play-ing at LBCC in 1998 and 1999. Charette is made of Viking stock, as well, having led the team to a state title in 2004 as California’s Most Valuable Player, returning from playing at BYU to serve as an assistant coach on the 2009 team.

“They were the right guys to take over,” Totorp says. “I never hesitated.”

It had been suggested to Totorp that he could serve as coach of the team while also running the Ath-letic Department, but he didn’t hesitate about that decision, ei-ther.

“This team deserves dedicated coaches,” he says. “I’ve known

for a long time that this year’s team would be special, that their character and their chemistry would match their talent. These are the right guys to coach them. But I do miss them.” Friday’s match is the kind of contest that makes ex-coaches regret putting their clipboards away, too. The loss to Moorpark put the Vikings up against a wall. In order to win the WSC title and secure a bye into the state semifi-nals, they need to top El Camino, the state’s second-ranked team behind them, and possibly their biggest roadblock on the way to a California championship. Silva and Charette are hoping to see early signs that their team has put the loss to the Raiders behind them. The first set eases the pressure — the second releases it com-pletely. Long Beach takes the first frame 25-18, and a 7-0 run across

two El Camino timeouts appears to break the Warriors’ spirit. In the second set, they go up 15-8, as the gym shakes with the sold-out crowd’s excitement, and the sound of volleyballs smacking into hapless El Camino back-line

players. The Warriors players are cussing at each other, and one as-sistant chews out a team captain for yelling at his teammates, in-stead of encouraging them. Long Beach’s jump-serving is phenomenal all night, and El Camino has no answer. The Vi-kings get seven aces, and their outsides, middles, and opposites are swinging so hard in the sec-ond set that seemingly half their points are kills on overpasses. They hit .556 as a team, and win the set 25-14. At this point, you have to re-mind yourself: the team they’re playing is ranked number two in the state. The third set sees El Camino gather themselves a lit-tle, taking a 6-3 lead before Long Beach ties it at 11, and eventually pulls away for an easy win, clos-ing on a 7-2 run. They’ve just systematically dismantled the second-best team in their conference to clinch the championship, and the Vikings are celebrating the release with so much excitement that they can barely be contained for long enough to take a team photo. Even Silva shifts his weight from

foot to foot, making big gestures with his hands as he talks anima-tedly about his roster.The Team “There’s so much pressure on these guys to win,” he says. “We lost in the semifinals the last two years, and everyone knows this is a special team.” He’s not kidding. Not only do they return five starters from last year’s team, but they’re putting out a roster with a distinct home-grown flavor. Four of their seven starters last week list Long Beach as their hometown, with oppo-site Clark having attended Poly, outside Jake MacRae and middle Aniefre Etim-Thomas playing for Wilson, and setter/opposite Max Wechsung going to St. John Bosco, up the road. Of the 18 players on the roster, eight list Long Beach or Lakewood as their hometown. “We all played against each other and with each other grow-ing up,” Etim-Thomas says, not-ing both Moore League play and Totorp’s High Line Volleyball Club, which most of the team came up through. “We’re trying

after that when she buried on in the top shelf, and her night was just getting started.

In the 28th minute, 2008 Big West Midfielder of the Year Hay-ley Bolt showed she still has the lift that she had back in 2008 and headed home a goal off a corner kick to tie it up.

Bolt was all over the field lead-ing the alumni team, who played beautiful one-touch soccer in the first half.

“It was a fantastic night of good soccer,” Ingrassia said. “It was a lot of fun to watch the alumni, they played very well… But their legs got them in the second half

a little bit and youth prevailed… We were lucky to get out of the first half just 2-2.” With 2011 Big West Offensive Player Of The Year and junior forward Nadia Link absent (wis-dom teeth), freshman forward Lizzy Lyons used her opportu-nity to dominate possession on the near sideline and find space to cross it into Roese. The two con-nected for goals in the 62nd and 65th minute before junior Chy-ann Saban drilled one home from distance in the 73rd minute and Roese capped the scoring in the 74th. “We had to treat it like a real match,” Ingrassia said. “We only have two more (spring) matches to build momentum and find our

identity… (Lyons) is dynamic and we’re ecstatic to have her here.” Out of Santa Monica High School, Lyons signed with Fresno State last summer but was re-leased by the Bulldogs in the fall and signed with Long Beach State to play in the spring, keeping her full four years of eligibility. “I’ve never had (a freshman) this fast before,” said Ingrassia. “These are her first games at this level, so we’ll have to wait and see, but she has a lot of potential.”

“This is special,” Bullock said while friends, family and fans milled around on the pitch for a half hour after the final whistle. “This group is like the ultimate underdog story, it’s real… (The alumni) know we were the build-ing blocks (for the program)… The 2011 team went above and beyond everything, but they’re very respectful of the girls who came before them. There’s a lot of love out here, it’s a big family, and that’s rare.” As for what she saw out on the

field, Bullock — who was the graduate assistant last year and is pursuing a coaching/teaching career — couldn’t hold back a smile, “I’m excited for this team. It’s not over, the Elite Eight isn’t the end, and this team can keep it going.” The spring season comes to an end this week for the Long Beach State women’s soccer team, and if the game on Friday night is any indication, the future at George Allen is bright no matter what time they play.

to represent the entire city here.” A full 16 of the 18 grew up within 15 miles of LBCC, with Orange County product Jon Schaefer and New York native Rob McLean the only players on the team who couldn’t ride a bike back to their parents’

house after the match. “This isn’t Division 1,” Silva says. “We always want to repre-sent our area.” For the last three months, no team in Long Beach has done that better. The Long Beach City College Vikings are 14-2, and the number one team in the state, as the only team in California with fewer than four wins. They’re

doing it with kids who grew up playing together, who were mold-ed by a coach who’s moved to the front office but still watches them with pride, coached by first-year helmsmen who’ve welcomed the pressure. That team and those coaches have driven the state’s best team forward like a locomotive, one whose destination has always been clear. On April 19 and 21, LBCC’s Hall of Champions will play host to the California Final Four and State Championships games. The Vikings have already clinched a spot in that tourna-ment, in their own gym (albeit not the one they normally use). Now, all they have to do is take their potential, and turn it into ki-netic energy. That transformation is what makes bombs and guns so pow-erful, and the kind that turns a cocked arm and a gently set vol-leyball into a cannon, and a can-nonball. Click … click … boom.

Alumni Game


There’s been plenty said al-ready about the success that Poly graduate Saitaua “Sa” Iosia has been having at the University of Maryland, Eastern Shore, in her freshman season. Well, the Long Beach native just capped her first year with the Nighthawks by winning a major national award.

Iosia was named the top fe-male athlete in America’s 105 Historically Black Colleges and Universities, winning the Russell HBCU MVP of the Year.

The awards were decided by fans across the country. Iosia earned the most votes in Fe-male MVP category, beating out LaQwesha Gamble of John-son C. Smith, Victoria Lewis of Chowan, Jamila McKinnis of Stillman and Whiquitta Tobar of Alabama A&M. She was named the recipient at the HBCU Buzz Awards at the Armour J. Black-burn University Center. Iosia re-ceived as many votes as the rest of the field put together.

“With gratitude to God and Russell Athletics, I am honored to accept this award as an accom-plishment not only for me but for my school, team, and family,” Io-sia said in a university statement. “We were all in this together and together we won.”

This is the first year of the Rus-sell HBCU Awards. The athletic awards are sponsored by Rus-sell Athletic, the official uniform company of the Mid-Eastern Ath-letic Conference, the Southwest-ern Athletic Conference and the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association. The awards show-case all HBCUs in the country.

“Sa is the perfect recipient for the first annual HBCU Buzz award for Female MVP spon-sored by Russell Athletics,” said UMES head coach Don Metil, “She encompasses every word of their 2012 theme, My Life, My Family, My Society.”

The freshman outside hitter adds to her trophy case after win-ning MEAC Rookie of the Year, 1st-Team All-MEAC, MEAC Tournament Most Outstanding

Performer, COBRA magazine Freshman of the Year, COBRA East Region Player of the Year and COBRA All-National First Team. She finished the season with 472 kills, averaging more than four kills per set, 49 service aces, 268 digs and 54 blocks. She led UMES to its first ever MEAC ti-tle, getting a double-double with 25 kills and 11 digs, adding three aces plus getting the winning kill in the fifth set against Florida A&M. “Iosia is heavily supported by her family, is respected by her peers, valued by the UMES com-munity, and loved by her team-mates,” Metil said. “As UMES volleyball continues to make history both on and off the court, it is the hard, persistent work of athletes like Sa that make the coaching profession enjoyable. The HBCU Awards definitely set the bar high with Sa being the first ever award winner.”

With Easter weekend behind us, the world of racing boats comes back to life this week and weekend with a full schedule of all kinds of events.

Starting today, Thursday, April 12, Alamitos Bay Yacht Club again plays host for the California International Sailing Association (CISA) Advanced Racing Clinic.

The clinic draws more than 100 high school-aged boys and girls from all over the country for three days of intensive training in La-ser, Laser Radial, CFJ, Club 420,

International 420 and 29er. The instructor corps is led by former U.S. Olympian Andrew Campbell and includes former and current Olympic sailors as well as CISA alumni. CISA supports amateur sailors by providing travel grants for re-gional, national and international competition and funds local sail-ing programs and racing clinics. A 501(c)3 organization, CISA relies on tax-deductible contribu-tions by corporations and individ-uals. The clinic will run through Sunday, April 15. Visit www.cisa-sailing.org, www.abyc.org or call 434-9955 for details.Predicted Log The second of the Southern California Cruiser Association (SCCA) Spring Series will take place tomorrow, Friday, April 13, as Hollywood Yacht Club in Wilmington hosts the Schultz Easter Catalina predicted-log contest. As readers of this column know, predicted-log racing starts when organizers determine a course from one place to another with specific locations or “waypoints” that all competitors must pass. The trick is for each competitor to predict the time at which they will pass each waypoint and then do so as closely as predicted but without having recourse to a speedometer or even a watch. This contest will start in the Los

Angeles Outer Harbor and finish off Avalon on Santa Catalina Is-land. Visit www.predictedlog.org/SCCA/SCCA.html for details.Santa Barbara Island The last of the historic Whit-ney/Times/Bogart Series events hosted by Los Angeles Yacht Club will take place this weekend as the competitors race around Santa Barbara Island. The series earns its name from the historic trophies presented to the winners: the Whitney Trophy, the Los Angeles Times Trophy and the Humphrey Bogart Trophy, the last donated by the famous actor and former LAYC member. This race will start on Friday, April 13, in the Los Angeles Out-er Harbor; round Santa Barbara Island, a rock located about 35 nautical miles off Palos Verdes; and finish at Howland’s Landing at Santa Catalina Island. It will be run under the Performance Handicap Racing Fleet (PHRF) handicap system. A shorter race for cruising class boats will round Ship Rock off the Isthmus of Catalina and finish at Howland’s Landing and will take place on Saturday, April 14. Details on the Whitney/Times/Bogart Series can be found on the Los Angeles Yacht Club web-page, www.layc.org — look for the picture of “Bogey” on the homepage. Or call the club at (310) 831-1203.

Racing Boat Season Springs To Life In Long Beach



This weekly update on every-thing Long Beach State baseball hasn’t been the most positive of places since the Dirtbags started their season in mid-February. Another murderers’ row of a non-conference schedule coupled with offensive struggles led to a string of tough losses for head coach Troy Buckley and his young but experienced ballclub. Then the Big West Conference schedule started and after a back-to-back series wins at Cal Poly last week and UC Riverside over the holiday weekend, the Dirt-bags are 4-2 in conference play and right now that’s all that mat-ters.

“Our guys have really stuck with it,” Buckley said on Sports-Night last week. “They’re staying in the moment. The bleeps we have had are not becoming huge gashes in the dam… we’ve made the plays we needed to and got some clutch hits that we’d been missing.”Three Up

The Firm of Stuart, Strufing & Anderson — The weekend win in Riverside was paced by starting pitchers Matt Anderson, Shawn Stuart and Ryan Strufing, who gave up only seven runs, 14 singles and four extra base hits on the weekend. After just one sea-son under Buckley, the Dirtbags lowered their team ERA from 4.67 to 3.55, and all three start-ers rank in the Big West top 10 in

ERA, with Stuart leading the way at 2.18 in fifth place. Stuart and Strufing rank fourth and sixth in opponent batting average (.196, .234) and Anderson is 10th in in-nings pitched at 48.2 and ninth in strikeouts with 36. Flashing The Leather — Last week, errors cost the Dirtbags an opportunity at the sweep in San Luis Obispo, but in Riverside they only committed two errors in three games and the defense saved the day in the 5-4 win on Friday night. The Dirtbags turned a season-high three double plays after taking an early lead, the biggest one coming in the eighth inning with a 5-3 lead. With the bases loaded and nobody out, UCR’s Vince Gonzalez lifted a fly ball to center field and all three runners tried to advance. Juan Avila read the movement and his

throw to second cut down Eddie Young for the second out of the inning in a double play off of the sacrifice fly. David Andriese then hit a very high, swirling pop fly that catcher Kellen Hoime made a diving catch on behind the plate to end the inning and the threat. We’re Going Streaking! — The series win is the third in a row for the Dirtbags as they hit .337 as a team in Riverside. Leading the resurgent offense is shortstop Matt Duffy, who has picked up his batting average up 50 points with the help of a 12-game hitting streak.Three Down Close, But No Cigar — It wouldn’t be 2012 Dirtbags base-ball if they didn’t drop a close game after taking an early lead. The Highlanders walked off win-ners on Thursday night, 3-2, af-ter Long Beach went up 1-0, fell behind 2-1, and tied it 2-2 in the third. It was the 10th one-run loss

for the Dirtbags and the fifth time they’ve been left on the field. They are 0-4 in extra innings. Playing With Fire — As much credit as the pitching staff de-serves for keeping this team in games all season long, they do put a lot of runners on and that’s always dangerous. They stranded 18 Highlanders on the bases last weekend. Ole, Ole, Ole — The rival UC Santa Barbara Gauchos (16-14, 4-2) are coming to town this

weekend with big bats and a live arm. The Dirtbags will have to face freshman starter Andrew Vasquez (#13) who is 5-2 in eight starts this season with a 1.10 ERA. The 6’6” 200 lbs. righty has racked up 62 strikeouts this season, which is an 11.39 K-per-nine-inning average. He’ll have the most potent offense in the Big West behind him as they Gauchos have compiled 55 doubles, 11 tri-ples, and 10 home runs for a team slugging percentage of .393.

The journey has been any-thing but smooth for Long Beach State’s men’s volleyball team, but they’ve found their way into the postseason thanks to their most recent victory over Pacific. All that is left to be determined now is seeding for the MPSF Tourna-ment, with Long Beach likely headed for the sixth or seventh seed (out of eight teams). The weekend got off to a bumpy start, as the 49ers had their modest three-game winning streak snapped by the Stanford Cardinal. Long Beach was outhit .381-.098 on the match, commit-ting 18 attack errors compared to just 27 kills in the 25-13, 25-16, 25-18 drubbing. Four different 49ers had a negative attack per-centage in what was an all-around forgettable evening. It apparently only took one night to forget it, as the ‘Nin-ers traveled to Stockton the next day to grab a playoff-clinching 29-27, 23-25, 25-17, 25-15 win. The Stanford loss must have put the 49ers into a Crabby mood, because they turned to the Crabb Brothers early and often to pick up the victory. Trevor tied for the team lead with 16 kills while attacking at a .406 clip; Taylor matched his 16 kills while post-ing 14 digs. It was believed that senior opposite hitter and captain Jim Baughman may be out for the season with a knee injury, but he appeared in each of this week-end’s matches for limited action. It’s tough to tell what his role will be heading into the home stretch of the season. With just two matches left on Long Beach’s regular season

schedule, there’s still plenty of uncertainty as to who they’ll play in the MPSF tourney. The 49ers (14-13, 9-11) are tied with Pep-perdine in sixth, and there are four teams ahead of them with five losses apiece, jockeying be-tween the second and fifth seeds. All that the ‘Niners can control is what’s in front of them on the schedule, and first up is a match with the nation’s #1 team, the USC Trojans (20-4, 16-4), at 7 p.m. tonight, Thursday, at Wal-ter Pyramid. The regular season finale comes two nights later on Saturday as the 49ers host the aforementioned Pepperdine (14-12, 9-11) for a 7 p.m. match.Softball The return of senior starting pitcher Taylor Petty has made all the difference for this team, as they picked up a three-game sweep against Cal Poly behind Petty’s 11 strong innings of work and pair of victories. Petty pitched a complete game in the series opener, getting four runs of support in the fifth inning to ensure a 4-1 win. Her partner-in-crime in the circle, sophomore Erin Jones-Wesley, took care of things in game two of the dou-bleheader as she pitched a full seven innings for a 3-2 win. Long Beach put a pair of runs on the board in the first and added an-other in the third to build a lead that EJW would make last. In Saturday’s series finale, the hurlers shared the pitching du-ties and showed how deadly they can be as a one-two punch. Petty started the game and went four scoreless innings, striking out four and surrendering just two hits. Jones-Wesley entered in the fifth inning and finished the game, allowing only an unearned

run while earning her first save of the season and just the second of her career. The Beach has now won eight of their last 11 games and are third in the Big West, looking much better positioned for a run at a conference championship than they did a month ago. There’s a huge road trip on deck for the 49ers (16-20, 4-2) this weekend as they visit the Big West-leading UC Davis Aggies (15-22, 5-1), looking to move up in the standings and prove that they’re ready to be contenders again this year.Sand Volleyball The good news is, the 49ers have settled on a pretty success-ful set of bookends for their dual matches. The bad news is, you need to win three flights in order to win the match, so they’ll need to find a successful combination in flights two, three and four to compete with elite teams. The problem showed against Pepperdine as the ‘Niners fell short once again vs. the Waves, losing a close match 3-2. The fifth flight team of Tyler Jackson

and Janisa Johnson looked solid again, winning their matchup 21-15, 15-21, 15-13. Also, as we’ve seen all year, the top flight team of Caitlin Ledoux and Tara Roe-nicke proved to be one of the best in the nation, winning their con-test 21-15, 22-20.

Head coach Brian Gimmillaro is trying out some new combina-tions to find the best set of five teams, as Libby Fontanilla was paired with Haleigh Hampton for the first time in team two. The experimenting will likely contin-ue as the sport enters its second month of existence, and Long Beach State tries to find that per-fect balance.

The 49ers (2-3) will compete in the USAV Invitational in Her-mosa Beach this weekend, and then return home for their final dual match of the regular season.

The ‘Niners play host to Hawaii at 11 a.m. Monday.Men’s Golf It was a third straight strong finish for the 49ers, as they have now finished second or better in their last three tournaments, in-cluding a first-place finish last week at the OGIO-UCSB Invita-tional. Long Beach was led by fresh-man Xander Schauffele, who birdied the final hole to top the leaderboard with a score of 8-un-der for the tournament. He was joined in the top 10 of the leader-board by teammates Kevin Lim (-1, t-4th), Raymond Ho (-1, t-4th) and Kevin Roy (E, t-7th). The 49ers are playing some of their best golf of the season and are now ranked 37th in the nation with just one tournament remain-ing — the Anteater Invitational April 23-24 — before the Big West Conference Championships at the end of the month.

Even though the Vikings’ men’s volleyball team suffered defeat for just the second time this past week, there was still reason to celebrate. With a sweep of El Camino—the #2-ranked team in California—Long Beach clinched at least a share the West-ern State Conference Champion-ship for the fourth straight sea-son, and the eigth time in the last nine years. There’s only one team that has been able to solve the Vikings this season, as Moorpark de-feated LBCC for the second time in three weeks, earning a close sweep during their visit to Long Beach. Every set was fiercely competitive, as the Raiders won by just two points in all three frames—26-24, 30-28, 25-23. Unforced mistakes were an issue for Long Beach as they had 25 at-tack errors and nine service errors during the match. It didn’t take them long to clean up their act, though, as they

made quick work of a talented El Camino team with a 25-18, 25-14, 25-20 sweep. The Vikings had 13 blocks in the match, led by Aniefre Etim-Thomas who was in on seven. Rob McLean led the attack with 14 kills in each of the two matches, while Dylan Marquess had 26 combined digs to pace the team.Baseball With less than half of their league schedule remaining, the Vikings took a detour from South Coast Conference play and split a two-game set against Irvine Val-ley. After dropping a 3-1 contest on the road, Long Beach earned a 6-5 win on their home field. Starting his first game of the year, senior Stefan Miladinovich went six innings without allow-ing an earned run, but a pair of costly passed balls in the fourth inning gave Irvine Valley a 2-0 lead which they wouldn’t relin-quish. LBCC was limited to just six baserunners on the afternoon as the offense continues to prove inconsistent.

Once they returned home, the lineup got a shot of life that led to some walkoff magic. Going into the ninth inning tied 3-3, it ap-peared the Vikings had given the game away as they surrendered a pair of runs in the top half. But Long Beach wouldn’t give up so easily. After rallying to tie the game, the bases were loaded with two outs for pinch hitter Ryan Dicki-son, who knocked a single to left to complete the comeback and earn the walk-off win. The Vikings (12-14, 6-6) have a pair of games against confer-ence foe Pasadena this weekend, hosting a 2:30 p.m. game on Thursday and hitting the road on Saturday.Softball Sitting on the .500 mark, things won’t get much easier for the Vikings, who are coming off a tough 1-0 loss against Citrus. There are just a handful of games left for Long Beach, who sit in third place in the SCC. LBCC still has to visit the top two teams in the league, MT. SAC and Cerritos, while facing a very good LA Harbor team that pummeled the Vikings 10-2 in a mercy rule game the first time the teams played. The Vikings get to host Harbor this time, as the teams face off Thursday at 3 p.m. in the second-to last home game of the season. Long Beach visits Palomar on Friday in a non-league game to conclude the weekend’s action.

CITY COLLEGE: NOTEBOOK(Continued from Page 11B)

LBSU Notebook


BY MIKE GUARDABASCIOSPORTS EDITOR

With the Moore League quiet last week and this week due to the LBUSD’s Spring Break, here’s a look at out-of-league ac-tion, as well as a quick gander at the standings, as the city takes a breath before the final plunge of second round play starting next week.Baseball The Lakewood Lancers de-feated Compton 28-0 before the break, and have actually broken from the norm by resting during the school vacation. They’re idle from the April 5 defeat of Comp-ton until Saturday, April 14, when they visit Carson in the Redondo Tournament. Their next game af-ter that isn’t until hosting Jordan on Friday, April 20, meaning they play just three games in two-plus weeks, a rare respite from the grind of the school schedule. Wilson is 2-2 since their loss to Lakewood, and for the rea-sons you would expect. They put up eight runs in two wins over Murrieta Valley and Marina, but then fell quiet offensively in a pair of losses to El Modena and Santa Margarita, falling 1-0 both times. Ace Chase DeJong pitched a complete game effort against El Modena, but lost his second con-secutive 1-0 decision. Poly had quite the marathon stretch, playing six games in seven days, ending in last week’s victory over Dana Hills, 4-1. Poly went 6-1 in that stretch to an-

nounce themselves once more as a Moore League contender, im-proving their record to 16-3, with two fewer losses than Wilson. More importantly, Poly is tied for second place with Wilson in the Moore League, with records of 4-1. Lakewood is in first, hav-ing completed the first round of play, with a record of 6-0. The Bruins and Jackrabbits’ final game of the first round will be against each other, at Blair Field at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 17. Every other team in the league is below .500, but the Lancers, ‘Rabbits, and Bruins are all still in the race for the league crown. Whoever loses the game between Wilson and Poly, however, will need a lot of help.Softball The softball power programs of the Moore League are all idle, but the race for the Moore League title is anything but. Lakewood, Millikan and Wilson have all been ranked in the top three in CIF at one point or another this year (Millikan and Lakewood

were 1-2 in the most recent poll), and they’re currently all tied for first place with a record of 4-1. Poly is currently sitting in the fourth and final playoff spot at 2-2, but it looks like we might have a photo finish (or possibly even a co-championship, or a tri-championship) at the top of the standings.Boys’ Volleyball Lakewood right now looks like a good bet to repeat as Moore League champions, having de-feated their main competition, Poly and Wilson, to round out the first half of league play. Poly’s defeat of Wilson puts them in the driver’s seat for trying to un-seat the Lancers, especially since Poly will host their second round game, on April 24. The Bruins have two losses, putting them in third place after the first round.Track The Moore League track sea-son has been heating up along with the weather, especially for the Poly Jackrabbits, who are the

Welcome back to By the Books, where we break down how Long Beach teams are doing in polls. We have an abbreviated version this week as the CIF of-fi ces are closed for Spring Break, meaning no CIF rankings. It also means we’re likely to see a lot of shake-ups in next week’s poll, as it will feature two weeks of changed opinions from voters.Baseball The LA Times’ SoCal poll (which crosses all CIF sections and divisions) is the only set of rankings out this week featuring local diamond teams. As expect-ed, Lakewood is still high at No. 6, with a record of 19-4. Wilson has dropped down to No. 17 with a record of 14-5, and the Times clearly thinks the post-Spring Break Wilson/Poly clash will be a good one, as Poly is just two spots below, at No. 19, with a record of 16-3. Mater Dei is the No. 1 team, with four losses, so

SoCal prep baseball is tightly bunched this season.LBSU Volleyball The 49ers defeated a team ranked below them last week (Pa-cifi c) and lost to a team ranked above them (Stanford), which means they didn’t move this week at all. They’re still the No. 8 team in the nation, and current-ly the No. 6 team in the MPSF, both in rankings and standings. This week they’ll be hosting No. 1 USC (getting 15 of 16 fi rst-place votes) and No. 6 Pepper-dine, at 7 p.m. on both Thursday and Saturday, with both games in the Pyramid.LBSU Water Polo The 49ers still have not found their way back into the nationally ranked elite, but they are back on the bubble this week. They’re now listed as the second team “Also Receiving Votes,” making them No. 22 by default. They are just seven votes away from No. 20 Hartwick. If they want to be ranked once more, they’ll have to do it on the road, with trips to No. 6 UC Irvine and No. 7 Loyola Marymount next week to close the season.

Poly Boys’ Track 4x400 Relay Team

There wasn’t much high school action go-ing on last week in the wind-down to Spring Break, but one of the nation’s largest track meets, the Arcadia Invitational, featured some local athletes showing off. The Jackrabbits’ team of Veth Seng, Austin Gunter, Colin Mo-naco and Richard Smith (pictured), won the fi nal race of the weekend, posting a time of 3:18.55 in the 4x400. Smith’s anchor leg was a blazing come-from-behind performance to give Poly the win.

Poly Girls’ Track Relay Teams Poly’s girls’ relay teams have always been the best in the nation, and despite sending an unprecedented crop of seniors off to Di-vision 1 ranks last year, that hasn’t changed. At Arcadia, Poly’s 4x100 shuttle hurdle relay team ran a time of 58.11, the second fastest time in history for a high school team. Tori Myers, Traci Hicks (pictured), Tierney Russell and Kymber Payne set the mark. Poly also posted their second nation-leading relay mark in the 800-meter sprint medley, with a time of 1:44.37.

Rob McLean, LBCC Volleyball The sophomore Mclean was on in a big way last Friday, helping the Vikings clinch a West-ern State Conference championship with a phenomenal offensive performance. McLean had 14 kills to lead his team, on .393 hitting, while also contributing a team-leading three aces from a powerful jump-serve, to go along with fi ve digs (second most on the Vikings), and three blocks. LBCC is just a few wins from a state title, so they’re hoping McLean stays hot.

Shawn Stuart, LBSU Baseball The senior Stuart is turning into a must-see attraction for the Dirtbags. For the second straight week, he picked up a Sunday rubber match victory, striking out six in seven innings of work in an 8-2 Long Beach victory. He tied Steve Whitaker for the fourth-longest consec-utive scoreless inning streak in LBSU history, reaching 27.2 innings before yielding a pair of runs in the seventh to Riverside. Stuart is now 3-0, with an ERA of 2.18.

THURSDAYLBSU Women’s Tennis vs. Cal State Fullerton, 2 p.m. @ Rhodes Tennis Center Trying to stay perfect in the Big West, the No. 51 49ers (13-5, 7-0) already clinched the No. 1 seed in the Conference Tour-nament with a comeback win at UC Santa Barbara last weekend. In a strange scheduling twist, the Titans (6-8, 0-3) are still look-ing for their first Big West win, having lost four of their last five matches. Going just 15-26 in doubles this season makes it even more difficult to get off the schneid, so Fullerton will need a big day from junior Tiffany Mai and sophomore Morgan McIn-tosh. The No. 1 doubles partners are also the No. 1 and No. 2 sin-gles players.FRIDAYDirtbags vs. UC Santa Barbara, 6:30 p.m. @ Blair Field

Coming off of a seven-game road trip during which they went (5-2), the Dirtbags return to the spacious confines of Blair Field to try and win their third week-end series. The Gauchos (16-14, 4-2) are coming off a weekend series win of their own at home against Cal State Northridge. Av-eraging six runs per game, UCSB is a big hitting team with a com-bined 55 doubles, 11 triples, and 10 home runs for a team slugging percentage of .393. In compari-son, the Dirtbags have 31 dou-bles, 6 triples and one home run with a .301 slugging percentage. Junior outfielder Brett Vertigan (#2) leads the Gauchos with a .386 batting average to go with a conference leading 51 hits, six triples and 32 runs scored. The Dirtbags likely will see freshman phenom Andrew Vasquez (#13), who is 5-2 in eight starts this sea-son with a 1.10 ERA and an im-pressive 62 strike outs, which is an 11.39 K-per-nine-inning aver-age. The 6’6” 200 lbs. Riverside native has only given up 29 hits in 49 innings of work, but he has walked 30 batters.

SATURDAYLBSU Men’s Volleyball vs. Pepper-dine, 7 p.m. @ Walter Pyramid After clinching one of the eight playoff spots in the Moun-tain Pacific Sports Federation last week, the 49ers (14-13, 9-11) are home for two this week to finish the season. Jim Baughman, Kyle McElderry, Brad Hemmerling, Srdjan Nadazdin and Ryan Mee-han all will be celebrating their Senior Night against the Waves (14-12, 9-11), who celebrated their senior night last week by also clinching a MPSF playoff spot. Pepperdine is led by junior Maurice Torres (#12, 6’7”) who has a team-high 431 kills (4 K/set) at a .311 hitting percentage. The junior from Riverside also leads team with a staggering 43 service aces.TUESDAYMoore League Baseball @ Blair Field, Jordan vs. Cabrillo 3:30 p.m. and Poly vs. Wilson 6:30 p.m. On the first day of action af-ter Spring Break, Moore League baseball concludes the first round on league play with two very im-portant games. In the matinee, the Panthers and the Jaguars are both 1-4 in league but there is still an outside shot at a playoff spot for both. This 710 Rivalry has been heated in recent years with both teams having level tal-ent, but a loss here could end a season very abruptly. In the nightcap, the oldest ri-valry in Long Beach has second place on the line after the Bru-ins and Jackrabbits both fell to Lakewood and carry 4-1 league marks. This game figures to be low scoring with aces Chase De-Jong of Wilson and Chris Castel-lanos of Poly taking the hill at pitcher-friendly Blair. The senior DeJong continues to up his draft stock with a 1.30 ERA over 43 innings during which he’s only given up 22 hits while striking out 59 batters. The junior Cas-tellanos carries a 1.26 ERA over 39 innings and he’s struck out 35 while only allowing 29 hits and seven walks.

defending state champions on both the boys’ and the girls’ sides. At the elite Arcadia Invitational event, Poly won a surprising five relays, despite both the boys’ and girls’ losing the bulk of last year’s point-winners to graduation. In addition to the excellent team efforts, Traci Hicks won the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 13.63 in the Invitational race, and sophomore Kymber Payne won the 100-meter hurdles open race with a time of 14.35. Payne also took second in the seeded 300-meter hurdles races. Arianna Washington, a sophomore for Poly, took second in the 200-me-ter, an event she’s posted the na-tion’s fastest time in this year. She was hampered by a slow start, something she’ll hope to correct at next week’s Penn Relays.

And, to nobody’s surprise, it was of course those relay events that Poly looked best in. After a disappointing slate of boys’ in-dividual races (except in the dis-tance events, where Poly may be better than they were in 2011), the boys’ 4x400 relay finally de-livered a win, in a time of 3:18.55. The girls’ relays picked up four

wins, including the 4x100 shuttle hurdle relay team of Tori Myers, Traci Hicks, Tierney Russell and Kymber Payne, who posted the second fastest time in history (58.11). Poly has three of the top four female hurdlers in SoCal this year, and they could be key to at-tempting another state champion-ship.
