100 Years of Lassen High Football: A Legacy of Grit, Growth, and Glory For a century, Lassen High football has been more than just a game—it’s been a tradition, a brotherhood, and a source of pride for our school and community. Through the years, we’ve seen legendary coaches, unforgettable victories, heartbreaking losses, and lessons that extend far beyond the field. Every snap, every tackle, and every touchdown has built the foundation of who we are today. As we celebrate 100 years of Grizzly football, we honor the players who paved the way, the coaches who shaped us, and the fans who stood by us through every high and low. This milestone season isn’t just about looking back—it’s about making history. And as we close this chapter with a section championship, we do so with the same determination and heart that has defined our team for a century. Here’s to the past, the present, and the future of Lassen High football—forever Grizzlies, forever champions.
