Coin Toss here for our Homecoming Game vs. Sacred Heart Cathedral on <strong>October</strong> 8.<br />
The Coast Guard Color Guard will be on hand to perform the coin toss. The Varsity<br />
game starts at 2:00 pm that day. The following week we are at Bellarmine, and are<br />
planning to have Bill Blanchard attend the game. Bill was paralyzed during football<br />
practice on August 31, 1970. His Class of 1971 will also be celebrating their 40 th<br />
reunion that same evening and are looking forward to seeing him.<br />
We will be experimenting with changing the traffic flow into our back parking lot for<br />
Junior Varsity / Varsity football games on Saturdays ONLY. Please watch closely for<br />
the new signs that will be posted. Only the visiting team bus and visiting team<br />
personnel will be allowed to enter through our back gate off of Judson Avenue.<br />
Pedestrian traffic through our back gate off of Judson Avenue will continue to be<br />
allowed.<br />
Our main entrance for the JV/Varsity football games will now be reversed. We will<br />
enter where we are now accustomed to exiting the back parking lot. Season Pass<br />
holders and anyone with a handicap placard or license plates will enter where we would<br />
normally exit. Take the road between CCSF’s reservoir parking lots and <strong>Riordan</strong> <strong>High</strong><br />
school. Those with season passes will be allowed access into our back parking lot.<br />
Those who don’t have passes will be directed to park in CCSF’s parking lot. You must<br />
pay $3 for parking or risk being ticketed.<br />
Recently, we hired David Siracusa to run our soccer program. He is a graduate of<br />
<strong>Riordan</strong> and was a member on <strong>Riordan</strong>’s last championship soccer team. He is also a<br />
member of <strong>Riordan</strong>’s Hall of Fame. Coach Siracusa brings a wealth of knowledge from<br />
the collegiate level where he excelled as both a player and as a coach. We are very<br />
fortunate to have him leading our soccer program.<br />
Coca-Cola ! is very excited to be partnering with us. Several Coca-Cola !<br />
representatives have toured the campus recently and have been impressed with school.<br />
We are finally getting new fountain machines in our snack bars for our after school<br />
events. Coca-Cola ! will also be providing us with several new vending machines and<br />
recycling bins that will be located throughout the campus.<br />
There is as always, lots more happening in <strong>Riordan</strong> Athletics. We had our Athletic<br />
Booster meeting last Thursday, and we are getting ready to unveil a new athletic web<br />
site in the very near future. You will be able to upload videos, pictures, booster<br />
volunteer sign-ups, schedules, scores, player bios, and a whole lot more.<br />
With thanks,<br />
Pete Russell<br />
Director of Athletics
