His best year was 2023 when he guided the Cowboys to a regular season record of 10-0, a Sierra League title and a first round CIF Division playoff victory over Long Beach Jordan. Chino fell in the second round to Mayfair.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;He did a good job at Chino. We&#8217;re excited to have him on staff,&#8221; Zavala said.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Colony has been a historically great program. Just to be a part of an established program and learn from a great head coach like Brian Zavala is something I\u2019ve wanted to do in my young career. I was a young head coach and had to figure out a lot of things on my own or learn from experience. So to be able to learn from an established head coach is where I want to be in my career right now. Taking some time off from being a head coach is what I need right now. Coach Zavala is a great head coach, and so when I met with him the fit just seemed natural. Colony has a great family atmosphere and I feel very welcomed by the coaching staff,&#8221; LaRosa said. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tim Peterson (Ontario)- Joey LaRosa, who resigned as the head coach at Chino last month after six seasons, has found a landing spot.
