The new old coach is bringing back his old culture to Pioneer football. “Just lose baby.” The beneficiary will be La Serna that will get Pioneers best players next season.
They weren’t a JV team that was your varsity El Monte group of local kids. You may call them JV because you think they aren’t good enough but that’s an insult to the kids and probably why the current group of kids weren’t good enough to keep the coaches around.
Then you add in the recruits that are head and shoulders above everyone in the Mission Valley and it isn’t even close.
Type out the list of transfers right here Mr. Know-it-all. I guess you forgot about the year he went 5-5 and missed the playoffs when he was working with a JV team that was playing varsity, during his first year. He turned Norwalk around during his tenure there after years of being a laughingstock. Took Chino to the playoffs for 2 straight seasons before going to EM. But yeah, you’re right it’s all the transfers that he brings…GTFOH!
Envy of every D13ish level school that wishes to get a coach can bring in some transfers. Then win a championship and make the local parents think their sons were the true key to success and hope they don’t have the same rug pull scenario El Monte and Sierra Vista where the transfers graduate/leave and the locals fall into a worse spot then where they started.
“Envy of the SGV” really?
What an embarrassment for Administration and Higher-ups of EMHS. To go from State Champs and the envy of the SGV to not being able to field a team to play a regular season game. Keep reading your books on PBIS & restorative justice, while you let your football team go to sh*t, and you lose the most valued coach in the area because you don’t want to let one of his coaches, who is already a district employee & softball coach at another school, coach for this team. Coach Ceniceros backed his coaches, admin called his bluff and now they look like but of chickens with their heads cut off. Coach C will rebound and turn another program around soon, while El Monte will go back to being a league and area doormat. Sad for the kids, the parents, the school, alumni, the community and all the supporters of El Monte football. This is what your Administration did!
