This image is from undefeated State Team of the Year Mission Viejo’s 2004 program cover. Wearing No. 6 at bottom is future NFL QB Mark Sanchez.
Is Mission Viejo 2004 led by Mark Sanchez the best in Orange County history? Had Mater Dei won it all in 2016, that might not have been the case. It’s up for debate, but that’s still our choice. Others in this next group include De La Salle and Mater Dei for 1994 plus Visalia Mt. Whitney for 1978.
