8-Man Football

The varsity football program at Lighthouse Christian Academy is led by Zach Scribner, a former UCLA football player. The program was founded by Lighthouse Senior Pastor Rob Scribner, a four-year veteran of the Los Angeles Rams and a former standout for the UCLA Bruins.

The program has also been shaped by dedicated alumni such as Justin Kayne, whose involvement has helped strengthen the team’s culture and tradition.

In 2005, the Saints made history by finishing as the CIF Division V-A 8-Man Football Championship Runner-Up, marking one of the program’s proudest achievements.

At Lighthouse Christian Academy, football is more than just a sport—it’s an opportunity to grow as an athlete and as a leader. Because the school is not yet impacted like many others, there is still room for motivated players who want to compete at the varsity level in a private school environment. Practices begin in the Summer.
