Carol Diane Arthur
Seaside football team looks to
return to championship form
Warrenton
April 6, 1943 — Feb. 14, 2021
By GARY HENLEY
The Astorian
It was a tough start, but a pretty good fi n-
ish for Seaside football in 2019.
Aaron Tanabe’s fi rst year as the Gulls’
coach seems like ages ago as the athletic
director and head coach enters his second
season after the long break.
The Gulls’ last appearance on the fi eld
ended in a fi rst round state playoff loss at
Marist on Nov. 8, 2019.
The game capped a 4-2 fi nish for Seaside
over the fi nal six games of the 2019 season
— a much different look than the start.
Seaside began the season with three
straight defeats, which included blow-
out losses to Marist (35-3) and Gladstone
(34-0).
The Gulls turned it around from there,
winning three straight to open league play,
before a 34-6 loss at Banks in the rematch of
the 2018 state championship game.
Tanabe’s team goals this spring are sim-
ilar to how things played out in the fall of
2019: “Get better at something every day,”
said Tanabe, the Cowapa League’s co-Coach
of the Year last season.
Seaside’s strength in 2021, he adds, is
“commitment. We’ve had 30 to 35 kids
at our workouts since June. I couldn’t be
prouder of our kids’ commitment level these
past eight months, even with our season
being far from a sure thing. We’re ready to
go.”
League predictions will be tough, given
all the variables. The only known part is that
the Cowapa League is always tough.
After winning the 2018 state title, Banks
returned to the championship game as the
No. 1 seed in 2019, but lost a 21-0 decision
to La Grande.
“Tough games week in and week out,”
Tanabe said of the Cowapa. “We’re looking
forward to the fi ve opportunities we have to
measure ourselves against someone else.”
And given their strengths and improve-
ments made, Seaside will be right there,
once again challenging for the top spot in
the Cowapa.
The players
Defensively, the Gulls had three fi rst
team all-league linebackers in 2019, two of
whom return, junior Andrew Teubner and
junior Lawson Talamantez.
Also one of the top running backs in the
league, Teubner could be on the fi eld 48
minutes every Friday night.
“We expect Andrew to be one of our pri-
mary ball-carriers once again this season,”
Tanabe said. “On defense he’s a great tack-

ler who plays bigger than he is.”
Senior Aedyn Cook was an all-league
running back in 2019 and will likely add his
name to the league’s all-defense team this
year as a linebacker.
“Aedyn will also be one of our primary
ball-carriers,” Tanabe said. “On defense he
is one of our most versatile players and a
sure tackler.”
Talamantez can line up at tight end, run-
ning back and linebacker.
“Lawson might be the best all-around
player on our team,” Tanabe said. “He’s
going to play tight end and get some car-
ries at running back. On the other side of
the ball, we expect him to be one of the best
defensive players in the league for the next
two years.”
Senior Jeremiah “J.J.” Stanley “started at
guard for us (in 2019) but will move to cen-
ter this year. We also expect him to start at
defensive tackle.”
Running the show on offense will be
junior quarterback Carson Kawasoe.
“Carson’s skills were evident the moment
he stepped on campus,” Tanabe said. “Now
as a junior, the physical side has caught up.
We’re very excited about his future.”

Utti, Rzewnicki near postseason action
The Astorian
Two former Seaside Seagulls were in the
college sports news over the past week.
Fresno State women’s basketball senior
Maddi Utti helped lead the Bulldogs to their
14th overall win Sunday, an 82-61 victory at
San Diego State.
Utti scored 19 points and grabbed seven
rounds with four assists and three steals, the
fourth time in the last six games with at least
four assists, and her most points since scoring
20 on Jan. 23 vs. Boise State.
Fresno State was coming off a 79-77 loss
at San Diego State just one day earlier.
After an 11-0 run by the Aztecs into the
second quarter, the Bulldogs answered with
a 15-2 stretch sparked by seven points from
Utti.
“Maddi really helped out tonight,” said
Fresno State coach Jaime White. “I thought
she was very aggressive offensively. I thought
our press was better. We forced (the Aztecs)
into 15 turnovers. Good team win and good
second night.”
Fresno State hosts the University of
Nevada, Las Vegas in its last regular season
series, beginning Thursday. Game 1 tips off
at 6 p.m. and will stream live on the Moun-
tain West Network.
Running Rzewnicki
Former Seaside athlete Bradley Rze-
wnicki was running again last weekend, com-
peting for the University of Arizona men’s
cross-country team at the Dave Murray Invi-
tational at Rolling Hills Golf Course in Tus-
con, Arizona.
It was the team’s last regular season meet
of the spring season, before the Wildcats take
part in the Pac-12 championships March 5.
Rzewnicki ran the 8,000 meters in 25
minutes, 48.7 seconds to fi nish 16th out of
36 runners, and was the third runner for Ari-
zona, which fi nished third in the team stand-
ings behind UCLA and California.
After graduating from Seaside High
School, Rzewnicki spent three years run-
ning track and cross country at Gonzaga
University.
Listed as a junior with the Gonzaga indoor
track team in early 2020, Rzewnicki is listed
as a freshman on the Arizona cross-country
roster.
