Alcala Yearbook 2001

Fifth year head coach Kevin McGarry looked optimistically upon last year's 5-5 season as he welcomed eigh– teen starters , fifty-five returning players and seventy newcomers to the 2000 Torero football team. Seeking to im– prove last year's record the Toreros quickly united; however, injuries plagued the team throughout the season taking several of the most valuable players away from the game. Though the sea– son may not have presented the Toreros with the record they were hoping for, USO was still represented on the 2000 All-Pioneer Football League team. Se– nior Oscar Arzu and juniors Justin Dixon , Bryan Baxter and Brian Luman made the first team All-Pioneer team. Seniors Christos Renner and juniors Matt Guardia and Dylan Mora received honorable mention status with the Pioneer Football League.
