Coach Craig Cieslik has been coaching high school football since
1991. At the age of 18 years old he guided the A.V. Christian Eagles to the C.I.F. Championship
game. This accomplishment made Coach Cieslik the youngest high school football coach
in the nation to ever take a varsity football team to a sectional championship
game. The record still stands today and will probably never be
broken.
Coach Cieslik is known for "turning struggling programs into winners."
He has accomplished this at his last 3 schools: Vasquez, Cleveland, Desert
Hot Springs, and now at La Sierra High School where his team was in the hunt for a playoff spot after he took over a 1-9 program
that scored only 84 points the year prior to him taking over. In the past 2 seasons La Sierra has gone from 1-9 to 6-4
and the offense he took over averaged 8.4 points a game prior to his arrival and with the "No-Huddle DoubleWingFly"
La Sierra averaged over 30 points a game in 2008! He has proven himself at the small
school and large school level. Coach Cieslik also has a
slew of unbelieveable scoring records such as 58 points in a
quarter, 74 points in a half, 89 points in a game, a
running back scoring 9 T.D.'s in a single game, and the
list goes on and on. In 2008, his La Sierra team became the "Fastest Offense ever in
the History of High School Football in America" when La Sierra became the first team ever in the history of High School
football to averaged oer 70 plays a game! They averaged 71 plays a game, a truly remarkable accomplishment. La Sierra
also set 2 more National Records in 2008 by rushing the ball 87 times and 90 times in a game. They broke a 29 year old National
Record. His teams are almost always the smallest and slowest team in their league, but Coach Cieslik has always
excelled with these kinds of kids. He just seems to get the most out of his kids at each and every program he takes over.
This makes his accomplishments even that much more impressive!
