 Grossmont
College Football – Tradition of Greatness!
Grossmont's Rich Football Tradition
Grossmont College football has been a power in the state for
most of the past 15
years. The Griffins have not had a losing season in a decade.
Since the new playoff
system was installed in 2003, Grossmont has won two Southern
California
championships, as well as a state and national title. They also
have played in and
won more playoff games than any other community college in the
state.
Grossmont was placed in the toughest conference in California
which had its
inaugural year in ‘08. Having lost two starting QBs and having a
very young squad
in ‘08, they still managed to beat traditional “powers” Chaffey
(51-16), Palomar (43-
3), Orange Coast (21-13), and Long Beach (33-7), as well as the
champion of the
Mountain Conference, Mesa (37-7). Three of Grossmont’s five
losses were by a
total of 13 points.
The real story of Grossmont College football, their legendary
successes on the
field and their tremendous record of sending young men to the
university level is
told in the following pages.
With key Division-I type players returning in ‘09 and the
positive responses
we’ve received from recruits, the coaches here, most of whom
have been around
for years, feel it could be one of our best seasons.
Our goal is always a playoff birth which, as in ‘03, ‘04,
‘05, and ‘06, gave our players even more exposure and interest
from university programs. University coaches follow the playoffs
and spend more time with the stronger conferences, such as the
one Grossmont is in.
Getting players to the next level is what Grossmont is all
about.
