So, why football?

The Laguna Beach Coastline Pilot went to Laguna Beach High School’s

Guyer Field and asked freshman and sophomores, ‘Why are you trying

out for the freshman/sophomore football team?’

“I’m trying out because the coach called me up and asked ‘do you

want to play and just give it a try?’ And my friend wanted me to be

in, to try.”

C.J. GOOD-MAN, 14

“Just to try and tackle everybody -- that’s my mission.”

GEOVANNI ESPIRITU, 14

“Because I was asked by my teammates and coach.”

JOSH SPOON, 13

“Because it will be a fun experience, I’m probably going to be

good at it.”

SEAN LAVERY, 14
