Los Alamitos has selected Jeff Nesmith as its boys water polo coach, former Griffins boys coach Dave Carlson said.
Nesmith is a former Long Beach Wilson and Stanford standout.
He also coached Marina’s boys in 2008 and 2009, and at BYU-Hawaii as an assistant in 2005-06.
“I’m really stoked to work with him,” Carlson said in a text message of Nesmith, who recently earned his teaching credential.
Los Alamitos’ Dave Carlson has earned several coaching honors over the years. And he has won CIF titles in boys and girls water polo and help develop a 2008 Olympian in Tim Hutten. But after his Griffins fell to El Toro, 11-4, in the Division I finals Wednesday night, Carlson wasn’t happy with himself.
He accepted blame for the Griffins’ lack of execution on offense and defense.
“This late in the season, that falls on the coach,” he said. “I don’t want to take anything away from them (El Toro). They played awesome and I didn’t do a very good job.”
