Scouting Report

Coach Jim Kunau just completed his 13th year as head coach at Orange Lutheran High School. In 2004 the Lutheran Lancers received the ultimate prize: a CIF Championship. With an overall record of 131-32-3, Kunau has seen it all and established LHS as one of the elite programs in southern California. From a school approaching 500 students in which 22 players were football players a decade ago, Orange Lutheran has evolved to an enrollment of nearly 1,200 with 200 student-athletes now a part of a highly successful program. According to Kunau, a principle reason for the program’s continued success is the stability of his staff. Offensive Coordinator Rod Sherman has been on Kunau’s staff for 12 years and Defensive Coordinator Brent Vieselmeyer has been coaching at Orange Lutheran for 7 years. Brent’s father, Dean, is the leadership coordinator for the school as well as defensive ends
