Congrats to all at Los Altos<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Welcome to Awards Season<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>There was a film called \u201cThe Miracle Worker\u201d that came out many years ago about a woman named Anne Sullivan who taught a blind-deaf girl how to communicate with the outside world. The girl was Helen Keller and it\u2019s one of the most amazing stories ever.<\/p>\n<p>This past year Dale Ziola became head coach of a program that was struggling and winless in 2010. In 2011 Ziola took a previously 0-10 team to a winning record, the playoffs, and within one play of the semifinals. The school was Los Altos and it is probably the most amazing story of this recent season.<\/p>\n<p>The Conquerors went 8-4 with the same quarterback, same running backs, the same team and only fell after an incredible shootout with La Serna that went down to the game\u2019s final play.<\/p>\n<p>In the recent weeks we\u2019ve heard people praise and detract (hey its Los Altos you\u2019re always going to have that) but there is no mistaking Ziola did the coaching job of the year.<\/p>\n<p>For that reason he is the Mid Valley Sports, Southeast Division Coach of the Year.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Mid-Valley Division Offensive Assistant of the Year: Arroyo\u2019s Chris MacMillan)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Southeast Division Offensive Assistant of the Year: Pasadena\u2019s Mike McKay)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Mid-Valley Division Defensive Assistant of the Year: Monrovia\u2019s Craig Schuster)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Southeast Division Defensive Assistant of the Year: West Covina\u2019s Jason Heilman)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Mid-Valley Division Newcomer of the Year: El Monte\u2019s Brandon Martinez)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Southeast Division Newcomer of the Year: La Serna\u2019s Frankie Palmer)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Mid-Valley Division Coach of the Year: San Gabriel\u2019s Jude Oliva)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Southeast Division Coach of the Year: Los Altos\u2019 Dale Ziola)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to Awards Season<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12816],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21632","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-hsfootball"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21632","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=21632"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21632\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24682,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21632\/revisions\/24682"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=21632"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=21632"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=21632"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
