LOCAL NOTES

Brad Davis, an assistant basketball coach at San Clemente the last two seasons, has been named head coach. Davis, 31, replaces Ed Coyle, who resigned to become coach at Chaparral , a new high school opening this fall in Temecula Valley.

This will be Davis’ third head coaching job. He was the varsity coach at Pasadena Blair in 1992-93 and 1993-94, and in the 1994-95 season he was the coach and athletic director at Mission Hills Tri-City Christian.

“It will be a smooth transition,” said Davis, who will also teach English at San Clemente. “I’m not planning any big changes other than I want us to be a bit more aggressive on defense. This is a great situation; we’ve got great kids and all four levels of the program are going strong. I hope to be here awhile.”
