Eagles find new coach

Gannon Burks has been hired as the Estancia High boys varsity soccer

coach. Burks will continue to teach at Rea Elementary School in Costa

Mesa, where he has been for the past seven years.

Burks has been coaching the Rea fifth- and sixth-grade team for

the past six years and has won the Daily Pilot Cup for that age group

the past four years.

“I’ve gotten a chance to coach some of these kids when they were

younger,” Burks said. “Estancia should be challenging for the Golden

West [League] title every year. They have a lot of potential.”

Burks takes over for Steve Crenshaw, who resigned Sept. 21 after

six years as head coach.
