LJ field hockey: New coach

Paula Conway, the Vikings' stellar field hockey coach, has hired Lisa Griffiths, coach at Clairemont, to take over her position this fall.

Conway will continue in her position as athletic director at La Jolla High. She teaches physical education.

Griffiths and Conway had conversations after last season, when the Vikings beat the Chieftains twice by shutouts. In fact, Conway introduced Griffiths to a reporter last spring, saying that she was coming over to LJHS to coach.

In the season opener last fall, Griffiths' team fell to La Jolla, 6-0, on Sept. 3. Two weeks later, in the Serra Tournament, the Vikings skunked Clairemont again, this time 3-0.

Griffiths was the varsity coach at Clairemont for one year.

Neither coach returned messages left for them.
