Welcome to Cub Football WHAT IT TAKES TO BE NO. 1— YOU’VE GOT TO PAY THE PRICE Winning is not a sometime thing; it’s an all-the-time thing. You don’t win once in a while, you don’t do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing. It is and always has been an American zeal to be first in anything we do and to win and to win and to win. Every time a football player goes out to ply his trade, he’s got to play from the ground up—from the soles of his feet right up to his head. Every inch of him has to play. Some guys play with their heads. That’s O.K. You’ve got to be smart to be No. 1 in any business. But more important, you’ve got to play with your heart—with every fiber of your body. If you’re lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he’s never going to come off the field second. Running a football team is no different from running any other kind of organization—an army, a political party, a business. The principles are the same. The object is to win—to beat the other guy. Maybe that sounds hard or cruel. I don’t think it is. OL Shane Stroyke ’20
It’s a reality of life that men are competitive and the most competitive games draw the most competitive men. That’s why they’re there—to compete. They know the rules and the objectives when they get in the game. The objective is to win—fairly, squarely, decently, by the rules—but to win. And in truth, I‘ve never known a man worth his salt who in the long run, deep down in his heart, didn’t appreciate the grind, the discipline. There is something in good men that really yearns for, needs discipline and the harsh reality of headto-head combat. I don’t say these things because I believe in the ‘brute’ nature of man or that men must be brutalized to be combative. I believe in God, and I believe in human decency. But I firmly believe that any man’s finest hour—his greatest fulfillment to all he holds dear—is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle—victorious.

THE COAT OF ARMS The seal of Loyola High School represents the lineage of St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus, along with an “L” in the top right corner of the seal, representing the school itself. The seal first appeared on campus in the stainedglass door at the entrance to Ruppert Hall, dedicated in 1926. The seal combines the two family bearings brought together in the 1261 marriage of Beltrán Ibáñez de Oñaz, the lord of Loyola, and Marina Sánchez de Licona. The Loyola bearing, on the bottom right of the seal, depicts two wolves feeding from a cauldron, referencing a long-ago famine in the Basque highlands in which the Loyola family fed even the starving animals of the surrounding forests. The familial representations of the wolf (lobo) and cauldron (olla) developed into the name of Loyola (lobo y olla). The Oñaz bearing, the bars on the left of the seal, represent the heroic brothers of the Oñaz family, who distinguished themselves in battle.

HISTORY OF LOYOL A
Loyola Institute of Excellence THE OLDEST CONTINUOUSLY RUN secondary educational institution in Los Angeles and all of Southern California, Loyola High School of Los Angeles is a Jesuit Catholic learning community with a mission to inspire its diverse student body to become men of faith, scholarship, service and leadership. In 1865, the year the Civil War drew to a close the Vincentians–not the Jesuits–founded a school for young men and located it in downtown Los Angeles in the Plaza. Three years later the school moved to 6th and Broadway. In 1887 it adapted to a growing Los Angeles and moved to a much improved facility at 8th and Grand. The modern laboratories and living quarters made the then St. Vincent’s College a rival of both Occidental and USC. In 1911, the educational venture at St. Vincent’s was handed over to the Jesuits and once more the enterprise moved to a new location in Highland Park just off the present-day Pasadena Freeway. Six years later, the Jesuit faculty and student body moved to Venice Boulevard, and in 1918, the institution was re-christened Loyola College and High School. In 1929, the college division moved to Westchester and The High School had arrived. Loyola is both Catholic and catholic—ever ancient, ever new. Loyola High School celebrated its 150th anniversary in the 2015-2016 school year. While the Jesuit college preparatory has adapted to technological and other advances in education

LOYOL A HIGH SCHOOL OF LOS ANGELES
“The Jesuit system of education aims at developing, side by side, the moral and intellectual faculties of the student, and sending forth to the world men of sound judgment, of acute and rounded intellect, of upright and manly conscience. And since men are not made better citizens by the mere accumulation of knowledge, without a guiding and controlling force, the faculties to be developed are the moral faculties. Moreover, morality is to be taught continuously; it must be the vital force animating the whole organic structure of education. It must be the atmosphere the student breathes; it must suffuse with its light all that he reads, illuminate all that is noble, expose what is base, and give to the true and their relative light and shade. In a word, the purpose of Jesuit teaching is to lay a solid substructure in the whole mind and character for any superstructure of science, professional and special; as well as for the upbuilding of moral, civil and religious life.”
since its founding in 1865, the principles which have guided Jesuit education for centuries continue. The excerpt above from the 1911–1912 Loyola catalogue is as relevant today as it was early in the 20th century.
There are currently 27 Loyola graduates on the rosters of collegiate football programs including such Football ACADEMIC PROGRAM Because Loyola is a college preparatory school, each student is given a rigorous schedule of college preparation. The curriculum consists of four years of English, three years of mathematics, three years of a laboratory science, four years of social science, three years of a language (French, Latin, Mandarin, Spanish), one year of fine arts and one year of PE/Health. Each student is also required to take a theology course for each of the eight semesters. Electives for seniors include: mathematics, foreign language, laboratory science, social sciences, fine arts and theology. The success of the academic program at Loyola is attested to by the fact that 99 percent of the graduates pursue higher education. Each year at least 96 percent of the school’s graduates attend four-year universities. Loyola students take more Advanced Placement tests than those at any other Catholic college preparatory in Southern California.
CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES The aim of Loyola High School to produce an integrated Christian man extends beyond academic preparation. Loyola fields 12 varsity sports whose seasons span the entire academic school year. The athletic program features team competition in: football, cross country, water polo, soccer, basketball, swimming, baseball, track, golf, tennis, lacrosse and volleyball. In 2016–2017 the school won its second consecutive–and unprecedented ninth–CIF Southern Section Commissioner’s Cup (awarded annually to the most successful school in athletics, based on achievement in CIF Southern Section post-season competition). The nine Cups earned by Loyola are the most awarded to any school in the 567-member Southern Section. That is an extraordinary accomplishment for a school with such a rigorous college preparatory curriculum. There are currently 27 Loyola graduates on the rosters of collegiate football programs including such Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) schools as USC, UCLA, Washington, Cal, Army West Point, Syracuse and Baylor. Nineteen former Loyola football players compete for Football Bowl Subdivision programs. Loyola consistently sees a large number of its graduating athletes matriculate at the best academic institutions in the nation.
Bowl Subdivision (FBS) schools as USC, UCLA, Washington, Cal, Army West Point, Syracuse and Baylor. In addition, Loyola offers a wide range of co-curricular activities through 65 clubs and student organizations. Students at Loyola are encouraged to become involved in helping others less fortunate than themselves. The Community Service Program fosters a student’s personal growth by giving him a measure of responsibility in a service situation, and gives Loyola students the opportunity to serve the needs of their community.
ADMISSIONS Because Loyola’s standards are high, it is with great care that new students are chosen who share the philosophy of the school. The school looks for applicants who are motivated to do the work necessary for college preparation, who are willing to have new and varied experiences, and who will join the life at Loyola with enthusiasm. In short, Loyola seeks young men who are prepared to apply their minds, bodies and spirits to the achievement of Christian maturity. Loyola draws students from every area of the city and suburbs. Admission is by entrance examination and elementary/middle school recommendation and grades. Over 140 grammar and middle schools, public and private, are represented in the new freshman class of 2023. Loyola’s student body is distinguished by its social, economic and ethnic diversity. Loyola attempts more than the education of the academically gifted. Its emphasis on value centered education and its concern for each student as a person endowed with the capacity for growth on many levels—psychological, spiritual, physical, social and intellectual—aims at producing a functioning, self-directed Christian, aware of his intellectual uniqueness. From this awareness the Loyola student can better serve his neighbor and his God. For more information about Loyola and admissions, please visit the school’s website, loyolahs.edu.
COLLEGE MATRICULATION Graduates of Loyola enroll at the best universities and colleges in America, including Amherst, Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Duke, Harvard, Johns Hopkins, Middlebury College, Northwestern, Princeton, Stanford, Swarthmore College, UC Berkeley, UCLA, Vanderbuilt, Washington University in St. Louis, University of Chicago, University of Notre Dame, University of Pennsylvania, the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, the U.S. Naval Academy, USC and Yale. Loyola graduates also attend many of the nation’s top Jesuit colleges and universities, including Boston College, Fordham, Georgetown and Santa Clara, to name a few. CUB FOOTBALL

TONIGHT’S OPPONENT
VILLA PARK SPARTANS Dangerous Spartans play a hard-nosed, disciplined brand of football
A LOOK AT THE SPARTANS It is no wonder that Villa Park competes with uncommon physicality and executes with great discipline. You could say such traits are in its blood as veteran head coach Dusan Ancich is the son of one of California’s prep coaching icons, the late Marijon Ancich, who amassed the second most wins (360) in state history. The elder Ancich spent most of his career as the head coach at Santa Fe Springs St. Paul where he led the Swordsmen to multiple league, CIF AAAA/Division I and state titles.
DT Sam Yoon ’22, OL Shane Stroyke ’20, WR Michael Jones ’20
As the old saying goes, the apple does not fall far from the tree. Dusan coaches his squads in a similar manner as his father, emphasizing fundamentals, precise execution and a tough brand of football. Ancich has had a lot of success in his tenure at Villa Park and he is hoping to continue his team’s recent run of championship football in the CIF Southern Section quarterfinals against Loyola. The Spartans return 15 starters from their 2018 team, including their top running back, wide receiver, defensive players and linemen. The big-time players for Villa Park are senior wide receiver/safety Zion Alefosio (6-1, 195), junior tight end/defensive end Zeus Alefosio (6-3, 215) and dominating senior middle linebacker John Tu’avao (5-11, 205). While the Spartans’ primary offensive weapon is their potent rushing attack, they also have hit big plays through the air. Senior running back Anthony Hakai (5-9, 205) is their top rusher.
Cubs charge against the Sea Kings.
The Spartans finished second in the Crestview League. Their average score in conference play was 40-11. Villa Park continued its upward trajectory last Friday in the first round of the Division 4 playoffs with a 39-8 demolition of Temecula Great Oak, an at-large team out of the Southwestern League. Do not be fooled by the Spartans’ 6-5 record. Three of their non-league losses were to state powerhouses Mater Dei, Mission Viejo and Servite.
OUTLOOK For a second consecutive week, Loyola will need to match the intensity and physicality of its focused foe to notch a victory. The Cubs have more than enough talent to match up with Villa Park. The squad that makes the fewest mistakes will probably be the one that advances to the semifinals.
THE SERIES This marks the first time Loyola and Villa Park have met in football. WR Tom Smythe ’20

LOYOL A HIGH SCHOOL OF LOS ANGELES
BLUE PRINTS
LOYOLA STOPS NO. 3 SEED PALOS VERDES COLD IN FIRST ROUND OF CIF DIVISION IV PLAYOFFS Cubs win first CIF playoff game since 2015, shutting out Sea Kings in defensive masterpiece. THE INTENSITY EXHIBITED BY LOYOLA for a full 48 minutes at South Torrance High School last Friday night in a first-round CIF Southern Section Division 4 contest against the No. 3 seed Bay League champion Palos Verdes Sea Kings was virtually palpable to the large crowd on hand.
HARRISON ALLEN took the ball into the end zone from two yards out with 4:41 left before halftime to put the Big Blue up, 7-0. Loyola was flagged an inordinate number of times throughout the game and three critical penalties late in the first half following a Sea Kings punt stalled a promising drive. The second half was all about the Cub ‘Wolfpack’ defense stifling the potent PV offense and yellow flags putting Loyola’s offense in tough situations, notwithstanding a brilliant rushing performance by sophomore running back TAHJ OWENS.
In a hard-hitting slugfest, Loyola turned in a masterful defensive performance—its best of the season—to defeat the Los Angeles Times’ No. 25-ranked team, 7-0. In their first CIF playoff game since 2015, the Cubs won the wars in the trenches on both sides of the ball which is the primary reason they are in the quarterfinals this evening.
DT Andres Perez ’21
Palos Verdes started the first drive of the game at its 20-yard line and methodically moved down the field, mixing both the pass and run effectively. On fourth and goal at the Loyola two-yard line, the Sea Kings eschewed a field goal try and went for the touchdown on a pass over the middle. The Cub ‘Wolfpack’ defense came up with a huge stop at the half-yard line, and for all intents and purposes, that proved the defining moment of the ball game. The momentum garnered on that play carried Loyola for the rest of the contest.
On the Sea Kings’ first possession of the second half, a ferocious hit by the Cubs forced a fumble which Loyola recovered at the PV 37-yard line. Unfortunately, Loyola gave the ball back a few plays later on a fumble at the Sea Kings’ 13-yard line. The home team could muster no offense against the swarming Cub defense for the remainder of the battle, which allowed Loyola to get on the buses with a hardearned, first-round triumph. The starting defensive unit for the Cubs was manned by defensive ends CARTER LINK and DOMINICK BELISLE; defensive linemen MARIANO UY, JOSHUA LONG and JEFFREY JOHNSON; linebackers STEVEN ARELLANO, NIKKO GONZALEZ and RYAN QUINTANAR; and defensive backs CEYAIR WRIGHT, ZAKHARI SPEARS, EVAN THOMAS and BLAKE NEITHART. The most impressive aspect of the playoff victory was the unbridled intensity with which Loyola played. If the Big Blue continues to play passionate football, it could be playing for several more weeks.
The Cubs embarked on a 99-anda-half yard, 20-play drive that took 10 minutes and 56 seconds off the clock. Sophomore running back
