The 2022 prep football season will bring another level of change to the Mary Star Of The Sea High School football program, but they’ve been used to it for nearly a decade.

In the past seven years the Stars were coached by Jason Gelber, who is now at CIF-Southern Section power Servite of Anaheim as an assistant, Mary Star went through five different styles of offense, reaching the postseason four times. Now, another new change for the new season comes with a new leader in first-year coach Eli Anzoleaga.

And right on cue, Anzoleaga brings in yet another change in offensive scheme, a scheme the Stars are familiar with, an old school brand of attack.

“This season we are bringing a Pro-style offense,” Anzoleaga, who also goes by ‘Coach AZ’, says of the 2022 Stars. “This will compliment our size and skills. We are very young, but…

It’s time to strap on the pads again.

The 2022 high school football season is here, and San Pedro High can’t even be more excited for it.

Coming up one victory short of the program’s seventh CIF-Los Angeles City Section championship when it lost 24-14 to defending champion Birmingham of Lake Balboa in the Open Division final last November, the Pirates finished 10-2 after setting team passing records and touchdowns in a single season.

2021 also marked the end of the six-year coaching regime of Corey Miller, who chose to step down at season’s end.

A new era is upon San Pedro for 2022, as their season opener against St. Anthony of Long Beach at Mike Walsh Pirate Stadium on Friday, August 19 will start a new coaching realm of former Pirate player Corey Walsh, who is the son of former legendary Pirate coach Mike…

2022 was an unpredictable year in the world of San Pedro Prep Softball.

San Pedro, Port Of Los Angeles and Mary Star Of The Sea High Schools all came in relatively young, fresh and full of potential, eager to show their opposition what they were capable of. All three schools combined to have just eight seniors on their respective rosters, while the Pirates and Polar Bears, the two youngest, both started multiple freshmen in their lineups.

It's kind of ironic that both San Pedro and POLA were the two schools that also not only won either a share of or an outright league championship, both their seasons ended in the CIF-Los Angeles City Section semifinals, falling short against the eventual Open Division (El Camino Real) and Division 2 (Garfield) champions in the process.

The 2022 San Pedro Prep Baseball season was the first fully felt-like-a-season kind of year.

For the first time since the pandemic, San Pedro, Port Of Los Angeles and Mary Star Of The Sea High Schools could finally participate in tournaments where they could play against other schools outside of their own respective CIF sections.

San Pedro (19-9 overall) was fresh off winning the 2021 CIF-Los Angeles City Section Open Division championship and fourth straight Marine League title, but their quest to repeat as championships for both under first-year coach Nick Lusic was denied in the quarterfinals by the eventual runner-up Birmingham of Lake Balboa on May 20, and finishing second in league by one game to new champion Carson.
