Santa Ana Valley soccer--A story in Wednesday's Times incorrectly stated that there had been a coaching change in the boys' soccer program at Santa Ana Valley. Adnan Bayati remains the team's head coach.
League favorites: Century: Orange; Empire: Cypress; Freeway: Sonora; Garden Grove: Santiago; Golden West: Santa Ana; Olympic: Orange Lutheran; Orange: Brea-Olinda; Pacific Coast: Laguna Hills; Sea View: Santa Margarita; South Coast: Capistrano Valley; Sunset: Fountain Valley.
1993-94 final poll: 1. Corona del Mar; 2. Santa Ana; 3. Mater Dei; 4. Saddleback; 5. Marina; 6. El Toro; 7. Esperanza; 8. Canyon; 9. Santa Margarita ; 10. Sonora.
1994-95 preseason poll: 1. Fountain Valley; 2. Santa Margarita; 3. Edison; 4. Orange; 5. Esperanza; 6. El Toro; 7. Brea-Olinda; 8. Santa Ana; 9. Capistrano Valley; 10. Corona del Mar.
Key dates: Irvine tournament, through Dec. 10, Brea-Olinda Rotary Classic, Dec. 14-17; Orange tournament, Dec. 27-30; Marina tournament, Dec. 27-29; Southern Section playoffs begin Feb. 17; Southern Section finals, March 3-4.
Notes: Adnan Bayati quit as Santa Ana Valley's coach, and the Falcons lost nine seniors from last season's team that finished second in the Century League. New coach Jose Cuesta, an all-league goalkeeper at Valley in 1989, also lost forward Margarito Morales, who transferred to Los Amigos, and forward Javier Valdez, who was killed in a gang shooting two months ago. Cuesta, however, is excited about Mejia, whom he calls the next Francisco Islas, a Times' All-County player for Valley last season. . . . Coach Ed Carrillo, who was 134-59-23 at Mission Viejo from 1975-86, returns to the school this season.
