Gomez, 31, a Santa Paula native, played center for the Cardinals and graduated from the school in 1986. This is his first head coaching job. He coached the freshman team at Burroughs in 1998 and ’97.

Mumford resigned last month after guiding Santa Paula to a 24-22 record and three playoff appearances in four seasons. The Cardinals were 8-4 and reached the Southern Section Division XI quarterfinals last season.
