A baptism by fire is what Football Coach Don Morel is hoping tomorrow’s first football game of the season will not be. But going against the large defensive line of Chapman University may be what the University of La Verne needs to have another winning season.
When the football season started for senior linebacker Tim Lopez and junior wide receiver Parrish Jones, they had more than just winning the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletics Conference to look forward to, they were patiently waiting for the birth of their babies. So in the same week when most players were watching tapes of old games, Lopez and Jones were watching the births of their baby girls.
With the 1994 football season approaching, the University of La Verne football team has reloaded and is ready to make another run for the conference championship.
