Sports

Sure there are a lot of Charger fans in La Mesa. Probably a couple closet Raider fans too, refugees from the Bay Area with the black and silver in their closets. But we’re not interested in professional sports here at La Mesa Today. Rather, we want to hear about the accomplishments of the Purple Panther girls’ soccer club. Or, the La Mesa Mets of the local Little League. Or the inside take on the Helix High hoopsters or the Grossmont water polo team. We invite you to post your team’s results here with all the game details you can remember and want to share. Pictures and videos are welcomed as well. From time to time, we at La Mesa Today will be wandering the sidelines of the local sports fields. Feel free to drop us a note if you believe your team’s exploits merit the attention of a professional sportswriter. We can’t be everywhere, but we will try. -- La Mesa Today editors
