Mater Dei's Rollinson Is Football
Coach Of The Year
An exasperated Bruce Rollinson sat in his Mater Dei office for four to five hours on a Saturday morning last fall, the football coach needing quiet in the absence of peace. The night before, the Monarchs' 2011 season had come to an end, on the last day of the regular season, before the playoffs had even started.
 
It was a first for Rollinson since being hired in 1989. "I immediately went into a self-evaluation, I went into a program evaluation," Rollinson said. "Just myself, nobody else." Some were saying the game had passed him by, even calling for his job. Never mind that Rollinson, 63, had turned Mater Dei into one of the most decorated programs in the nation over the past two decades, winning more than 200 games, 14 league titles and five CIF-SS titles...

Mater Dei's Duarte Is Offensive
Player Of The Year
Mater Dei's Thomas Duarte was pretty good in the regular season. In the playoffs, the receiver-linebacker was beyond good and well into the realm of outstanding.
 
Duarte had four receptions for 90 yards and three touchdowns in the Monarchs' 71-10 victory over Lakewood in the first round of the Pac-5 Division playoffs. He finished with five catches for 138 yards and two touchdowns, and had a sack, in a 53-42 triumph over Alemany of Mission Hills in the second round. He followed that with six receptions for 83 yards, and added another sack and an interception, as Mater Dei knocked off top-seeded St. Bonaventure of Ventura, 21-0, in the semifinals...

Mater Dei Roars Back Into Pac-5 Finals
Mater Dei senior wide receiver/linebacker Thomas Duarte said earlier this season that the Monarchs were back.
 
Consider Mater Dei back in a huge way. The Monarchs used a swarming defense and a balanced and opportunistic offense to defeat top-seeded St. Bonaventure of Ventura, 21-0, in a CIF-SS Pac-5 Division semifinal at Ventura High on Friday...

Mater Dei Making A Healthy Comeback
A new strength program and better eating habits have helped Mater Dei return to the playoff semifinals.
 
Losing rarely rings the doorbell and presents itself. It slips into the vents, hides between the cushions, does its work with slow insistence. Mater Dei missed the Pac-5 football playoffs last year, a byproduct of life in the Trinity League but a cataclysm nevertheless...

Forrest Takes Control During Mater Dei Comeback
Trailing by 11 points with just over seven minutes to go, it looked like a disappointing finish to junior quarterback Chase Forrest's second playoff start for Mater Dei.
 
However, the Monarchs rallied for three touchdowns in the final minutes, turning that deficit into a 53-42 victory over Alemany in a CIF-SS Pac-5 Division second-round game at Santa Ana Stadium on Friday night. Forrest finished the night with 313 yards passing, including a 49-yard touchdown pass to Ben Humphreys that enabled Mater Dei to cut the gap to 42-39 with 5:47 to go...

Mater Dei Rallies Past Alemany To Reach Semifinals
Mater Dei coach Bruce Rollinson walked off the field at Santa Ana Stadium exhausted, blood trickling down from his cheek.
 
"One of the kids head-bumped me," he said. "But it's good." It always is when you win. Mater Dei did, 53-42, thanks to a stunning comeback against Alemany of Mission Hills on Friday in a CIF-SS Pac-5 Division second-round game at Santa Ana Stadium. Mater Dei, ranked No. 2 in the county and the division’s fourth seed, will play at top-seeded St. Bonaventure of Ventura in the semifinals next week...

Resounding Triumph For Mater Dei
The return to the playoffs was a successful one for the Mater Dei football team. After failing to make the CIF-SS playoffs last season for the first since 1986, Mater Dei kicked opened the Pac-5 Division tournament with a resounding 71-10 home victory over Lakewood on Friday night.
 
Mater Dei (9-2) will play host to Alemany in the second round next Friday. Alemany defeated Moorpark in another first-round game. Lakewood (8-3) finished second in the Moore League. The Monarchs' charge was led by junior quarterback Chase Forrest. Forrest, who had split time this season with Ryan McMahon, got the start, and he didn't disappoint...
