Broncos QB Brown chooses Utah By LANDON NEGRI - Posted: June 28, 2010 8:03 pm Derrick Brown really considered playing close to home in San Diego. Then he fell in love with Salt Lake City. Brown on Sunday verbally committed to a football scholarship offer to the University of Utah, making him the third Vista Murrieta player to dot the Utes roster.

You need JavaScript enabled to view it | Posted: Monday, January 11, 2010 10:40 pm Battered and beaten and licking his wounds, Mitch Glasmann walked into offensive coordinator Jon Mitchell's classroom after Chaparral's midseason loss to Vista Murrieta ---- a backbreaker by some observers' accounts ---- and learned the key to his team's plan for the second half of the season: The Pumas' were loading their hopes on Glasmann's back.

No stunner here, just a battle expected Chaparral and Vista Murrieta meet in first-ever all-area CIF SS football final JEFF SANDERS - | Posted: Friday, December 11, 2009 12:35 am MURRIETA ---- An all-Southwestern League final? The idea isn't a shock to Corona Centennial coach Matt Logan, a five-time winner on this stage and the defending state champion. His Huskies, after all, went through three Southwestern League teams a year ago ---- Vista Murrieta in the quarterfinals, Murrieta Valley in the semis and Chaparral in the finals ---- before claiming the 2008 CIF Southern Section Inland Division title.
