The 2012 California high school football season will conclude Friday and Saturday at Home Depot Center in Carson with five championship bowl games. Every team left standing has certainly earned their way.

The primetime matchup this year is the Open Division Championship, featuring the perennial powerhouse Concord De La Salle Spartans and the Corona Centennial Huskies. It will be the rubber match between the two schools as they split bowl contests in 2007 and 2008.

The Long Beach Poly Jackrabbits will look to cap off their impressive playoff run with a victory over the Granite Bay Grizzlies Friday night at Home Depot Center in the Division I State Championship.

After starting the season 1-3, the Jackrabbits have reeled off 11 straight wins behind the two-headed rushing attack of Gerard Wicks and Manusamoa Luuga. The pair have combined for 2,766 rushing yards and 31 touchdowns this season.

The 2012 LA Watts Summer Games culminated last Saturday with championship games featuring the best male and female athletes Southern California has to offer.

Here's an interview with 2012 LA Watts Summer Games Football Chair, Jose "Coco" Jarin. CLA Sports caught up with Jarin during action at Cal State Dominguez Hills on Saturday. The boy's high school basketball finals featured championship games in the Gold and Silver brackets.

The 2012 LA Watts Summer Games 7on7 High School Football Tournament was a great success. Led by the determination and experience of Coach Jose "Coco" Jarin, who was the Football Chair for the 2012 LAWSG. Along with Football co-Chair Kenny Lawler, Jarin organized 16 high schools football teams from the CIF Southern Section that included the likes of Locke, Inglewood, Morningside, Diamond Bar, Verbum Dei, Franklin, Lincoln and several others.

My experience at the LA Watts Summer Games was incredible and inspirational. Having been a kid who grew up playing basketball around the neighborhood with K&E Bulls out of the Crenshaw district, it was nostalgic to see this event unfold with my team partner and great friend Aaron Plunkett. Even though he was handicapped with a badly sprained ankle, he made his way across numerous playing fields to support the LA Watts Summer Games mission, and it was dedication at its finest.

The 2012 LA Watts Summer Games got off on a great start today, as high school teams from the CIF Southern Section competed in the annual event that embodies a mission to "build bridges of understanding among high school youth through positive interaction, respect and achievement through spirited competition."

Jose “Coco” Jarin knows the game of football. More importantly, Coco Jarin knows the game of life. As a coach with over 25 years of experience, Jarin has worked with the likes of former NFL player and Stanford Defensive Coordinator Dave Tipton, Sweetwater High School coaching legend Gene Alim, Mt. San Antonio College coaching guru Bill Fisk, who starred at USC, former Oregon Ducks star and Pasadena City College Head Coach Kenny Lawler, and the list goes on.
