Kurt Frerichs helped lead his team this year. Lars Nootbaar threw for over 2800 yards this year leading his team to the CIF finals.
Quinn O’Connor, the school’s only four-year boys’ varsity runner in over 30 years, the boys’ team recorded the fastest times in El Segundo history. The football team made school history by advancing to the CIF Southern Section finals for the first time. The Eagles steamrolled through their last Pioneer League schedule and went 5-0. El Segundo High will be moved into the Ocean League for all sports in 2014. In the playoffs, the fourth0seeded Eagles handled Santa Paula in the first round and then won a barn-burner over Carpinteria 45-31 in the second round. Facing Oak Park for the second time of the season (the Eagles lost a 49-35 non-league game to Oak Park earlier in the year) proved to be much different. This time around Lars Nootbaar threw three touchdown passes, all to Nick Karsseboom. Karsseboom had a highlight game with 219 receiving yards as the Eagles won 59-40 at home to advance to their first section title game. El Segundo made the 90-mile trek to Ojai to play the defending champion Nordhoff Rangers on a frigid night. Coming into the title game, the Rangers’ only loss on the year was to Oak Park. With a huge contingent of fans from El Segundo, the Eagles’ valiant effort was derailed by Nordhoff’s explosive ground game and the result was a 49-21 defeat. Harvard-bound Jamie Stewart closed out his high school career with another solid Lars Nootbaar (El Segundo #8) leaps into the end zone to register his rushing touchdown in the third quarter during El Segundo’s 59-40 victory over #1 seed Oak Park to reach the CIF Southern Section performance with 10 catches for 174 yards.

Jack Happy Tails A “Christmas” Wish Comes True Congratulations to Justin and his new forever family. Justin was our Carson shelter rescue who was adopted, but regretfully was returned when his adopter developed health issues. His new family lost their 12-year-old Schnauzer to heart failure and opened their heart to our sweet boy. Justin is now living in Anaheim with two human brothers and two human sisters (one brother and sister are twins). Once again he has been renamed Charlie (they decided that before they knew his former name was Charlie). It appears that he is destined to have the name Charlie! •
