Gibson, Kunau Named to Coach All-Star Game

Share

Woodbridge’s Rick Gibson and Orange Lutheran’s Jim Kunau will be the coaches for the 40th Orange County North/South Prep All-Star Football Game this summer, game coordinator Phil Anton announced Tuesday.

Gibson, the South coach, led Woodbridge to a 13-0-1 record and the Southern Section Division VI championship last season. The accomplishment is more impressive considering the Warriors and Gibson had endured a 26-game winless streak that ended in 1997. Gibson has a 58-47-7 record in 10 seasons at Woodbridge.

Kunau, the North coach, led Orange Lutheran to the Olympic League title last season and the quarterfinals of the Division XI playoffs. He has a 55-19-1 record in six seasons with the Lancers. Under Kunau, the Lancers have reached the section title game twice and the semifinals four times.
