I think it is great for SI to get to the level they are at. I met Igor when he was 13 playing basketball at our local gym. He was a giant then and he is a giant now. I think his reputation alone will bring in some great linemen. And if a kid is a defensive linemen why not go. Don’t know what SI does opening the gates to athletes, but they have the facilities, obviously a damn good head coach and congrats to SI for doing a damn good job. Look forward to January 15th at Chase. Going to be a great alumni event for both schools.
WCAL: A Final Glance
- Thread starter colhenrylives
- Start date
Do they have a lot coming back? Their JV and frosh went 3-4 and 1-4. They have two linemen coming back who are impact I believe — are there others?
I understand that the coach is returning. I was wondering if you have information about returning players.
The QB, LT, RB, and MLB are all 3 year varsity starters (I think there could be some others too), I wonder if another team in the CCS had the same experience at those key positions, maybe SF?

Ha! That’s just it. Its the coaching that matters.
Outside of our D1 Left Tackle John Mills going to Texas. Our QB is going to D3 Bowdoin College and our outside LB Daniel Leupold to D1 school Holy Cross.
Yeah, where the eff is Bowdoin College?
No one else is going anywhere except maybe Junior College.
Major returners for next year I think would be the coach’s son Isaia Vandermade (DL/OL), Zui Shelton (WR/DB), Tyran Hicks (DB/WR), Jonah Chavez (OL/DL), Steve Malone (RB), and Manoah Faupusa (DL/OL).
What are you talking about? He just won the CIF CCS Open Division Championship.
.......is also about to win COY and did it in only his 2nd year.
Look past the fog of hate in your heart!
Coach Walsh got a state title and best team in nor cal tag 3 times with 3 open appearances
Sicp coach nice but he just beginning
It’s not just coaching. Serra won four straight CCS championships from ‘19-‘23, but fell back this year. I think likely due to lack of explosive playmakers. Same coaches, different result. That’s why I was asking about players returning. And thank you for answering that — I appreciate it.
I don’t follow SI, so I don’t know. I was contrasting Serra ‘24 with the previous four championship years. I could be wrong, though.
SI has had a fantastic season. Congrats to coach V and his players.
Remember that there are many 3-year starters on this team from the previous regime. The lower levels were not as good as other programs so let's wait and see. On another note, I don't think anyone at Serra or maybe the WCAL would agree that you have the best coach. Great Season but far from being the best team in NorCal for 3 strait years.

Here's a question?
Would your Coach get the same results from these same 3 year starters running your system?
