It's a well-documented fact that the Culver City high school boy's and girl's aquatics programs produce successful swimming and water polo teams without a pool on campus.

Nestor Jr. has been the head coach for the last five years and his father Nestor Sr. is his assistant coach. Nestor Jr. has been coaching...

The ball was suspended in time. The boisterous crowd fell quiet. Mira Costa's last second field goal was short and that's when the players, coaches and the crowd went wild.

"Tonight reminded me of the 1999 game against Mira Costa at...

If there is any organization in Major League Baseball that can recover from an off the field incident it's the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Since then, the Dodgers have indicated that he is no longer a member of the team. Even after the Bauer incident last year and now Urias, the Dodgers have continued to stay in...

Kick off is set for 7 p.m. Although Dorsey is 0-4 and Culver City is 2-2 the game is still played on the football field. "Dorsey is a young team," said Culver City head football coach...

All the summer camps in the Culver City Parks and Recreation were successful but the Youth Sports Enrichment (Y.S.E.) summer camp offered something a little different...
