It’s WARRIOR WEEK!!!! CAN YOU DIG IT!!!!!!
SSF vs. EC the rivalry continues this Saturday April 17th Kick-off 2:00 at Clifford Field
- -What I know about the Bell Game- -
Mr. Keropian EC’s first Principal from 1961-1988 told me the Bell Trophy was sponsored by the SSF Lion’s Club, and the Bell was chosen to replicate the Mission Bells which are found up & down the 700 mile historic Californian Mission Trail, aka “The Royal Road”

The Bell Game has been played since 1963. In that first year the score was 8-2 Warriors. El Camino would not score another point until 1972. The C**ts lost 21-7 but legend has it that The EC Fans as well as the Northern Part of town went NUTS!!!!!Celebrating the first ever touchdown against the Warriors.

The year I was born 1970 The Bell Game ended up as a TIE. EC 0 – SSF 0

In 1973 The C**ts Win The BELL for the first time! EC 13 – SSF 7

In 1976 The C**ts Win The BELL!! EC 10 – SSF 8

In 1978 The C**ts Win The BELL!!! EC 10 – SSF 7

I was at Clifford Field in 1983 in the rain with my Pop’s. The C**ts Win The BELL!!!! EC 12 – SSF 8

I was at Clifford Field in 1985 when Cliffton Smith and SSF destroyed EC 48-0

I went both ways as a Junior and recovered a fumble on our own one yard line. Thank God Shawn Scott called his own number and ran for a fake Punt first down to keep the game winning drive alive. & I’ll never forget our QB Jay Lee (Blanket Award Winner) running for key yardage on our game winning drive. The C**ts Win The BELL!!!!!
EC 16 – SSF 10

My Senior year SSF said they had a surprise for us. They came out in pre-game in their practice uniforms. Then they left and came back out in all Black uniforms, with Bells on their sleeves w/ dashes for how many times they have beaten us since 1963. I hated those black uniforms & we lost in 1987.
SSF 14 – EC 0

I was there as a coach in 1990 when somebody put a pipe bomb in the scoreboard and it blew pieces of metal out to the 30 yard line. Thank god the ball was on the South side of the 50 & no one was hurt. I was standing next to Louis Simondi when it went off. Steve said right after, “now there’s something you don’t see everyday”. I played for CCSF that night and I tore my ACL vs. DVC but I finished the game.
We lost again SSF 37 – EC 0

I was there as a coach in 1994 when we won the Bell and they wouldn’t give it back to us, so we went in and got it. The C**ts Win The BELL!!!!!!
EC 28 – SSF 8

I was there as a coach in 1997 when our punter took the snap off his facemask and we gave one away to the Warriors that day SSF 12 – EC 7

I was there as a coach in 1998 when we took it to the Warrior’s. The C**ts Win The BELL!!!!!!!
EC 25 – SSF 12

I was there in 1999 when SSF Luther Mason had one of the best ½’s of football I’ve ever seen before or since, but we held them off for the win. The C**ts Win The BELL!!!!!!!!
EC 30 – SSF 28

1998 -1999 is the only time that EC has ever gone Back – to – Back. It should have been a 3-pete but the 1997 game still haunts me.

My first and only Bell game victory as a head coach was 2003. The toughest part was getting outta there due to some dust-up at the conclusion of the game. The C**ts Win The BELL!!!!!!!!!
EC 36 – SSF 19

In 2013 we played our first ever Bell Game at El Camino’s C**t Field. What should have been one of the happiest days of my life was by far the worst. I can still see the kick sail Wide Left as we lost SSF 29 – EC 28. I’ll never get over that game in 2013.

We lost by one point again in 2016, a real heartbreaker. SSF 28 – EC 27

IN 2018 WE WON THE BELL for the first time in 15 years!! Javion Tarusan scored 5 TD’s on the day in one of the greatest games ever had by a C**t in the History of the Bell Game. The C**ts Win The BELL!!!!!!!!!! EC 41– SSF 15

In 2019 SSF at EC November 9th- BACK TO BACK BELL 🔔 VICTORIES: First time since 1998/1999- - 1st ever 🔔Victory at C**t Field. #2 Javion Taruasan 7 TD’s vs the Warriors the last 2 years.- - C**T PRIDE- - C**TS 39 - Warriors 0

It has been a long Time since I worked @ EC w/ Tom McCormick, Mike Heffernan, Mark Avelar, & Bruce Grantham! I had an email address of 1 of the Sr Starting OLB’er, Marc Lackner, who had been working @ Bank of America but is Probably Retired now & I have Not Heard Back from him as yet!

Talking to Lonnie B. Today & trying to see if he had Stayed Close to any of those guys & he Suggested that if anyone could come up w/ emails addresses, &/or Cell Phones...It would be You!!

I still wear my El Camino T-Shirt & my EC Hat w/ Great Pride!

After going to the Oakland Raider Training Camp to see my old GA, Jon Gruden, a couple of years ago...on my way Back to SFO to Fly Home, I stopped by to see the AWESOME FOOTBALL STADIUM that you were Instrumental in Creating! It was FANTASTIC!! You must be So PROUD of All the EFFORT that You Put in & to see those RESULTS!! Congratulations on a Job Extremely Well-Done!

Lonnie also said that The Class of 1970
50th Class Reunion may have been
Postponed this Year because of the Pandemic! So maybe the cell & emails may be Available of a lot of these Guys from the Reunion Committee!

So here is the Ones that I would Love to call on my cell: Gus Dijanich, Marc Lackner, Dennis Neil, Tom Buckley, Arnie Andriohetti
(Sp?), Gary DellaMaggora, Jim Tenaroiuz (Sp?) his brother, Mike was EC grad & HC @ SSF HS, Allan Spitzer, Vince Howard, Rich Clarke, Bob Bolds, & Jeff Lampkins! I may not be able to talk to each of these guys but I will give it a try especially the Sr Defensive Guys especially Gus who wrote this Poem that I have enclosed, Tom Buckley, Dennis Neil (I grew living right across the Street from Dennis & his older brother, Gary DellaMaggora, & Marc Lackner!

Jake, Thanks for whatever you can do to help me get in Contact w/ these Guys! We had developed a really Outstanding Defensive Football Team in 1969 so it was a Tremendous Experience for me & a Call from there Old Defensive Coordinator would be Quite a Surprise I’m sure!

Thanks again in advance!
