The San Marcos football team has turned into Pablo Picasso over the last three weeks.
Since the beginning of the season, head coach John Walsh has been an isolated artist trying to convince his understudies of the portrait that would be finished at the season's end. It may not have started as the perfect painting but after a few heroic performances by players on the team and a 21-point comeback last week, it gave the perfect touch to a 10-game regular season portrait.
“I think it just starts with Coach Walsh's vision, you know, he's been having this vision from the get-go, he's been drawing this picture for us and then he said ‘Soon enough, you (players) are gonna get the brush and you're gonna get to start painting it.’ And for the last three weeks, they've been painting,” defensive coordinator Kurtis Kloiber explained. “Sometimes they've been painting a little bit outside of the lines but they've been painting it. And they see the vision that he's presenting in front of them. They've done a really good job of seeing that and getting ready and preparing ourselves each week.”
