Desert Ridge football turmoil as QB dismissed, 12 players suspended
Mesa Desert Ridge football is in turmoil after the starting quarterback was dismissed from the team and 12 of his teammates were subsequently suspended for supporting him by walking out of a meeting last week. Five of those players are seniors. Desert Ridge (2-5) lost at home to Mesa Red Mountain 49-7 on Oct. 9. The Jaguars are scheduled to host Corona del Sol in a 6A matchup on Thursday, Oct. 15. Marie Brewer said that her son, quarterback Gunner Brewer, was removed from the team by coach Miles Smith on Oct. 5 for changing a play on his own during the team's 14-12 win at Vail Cienega on Oct. 2. She said the former offensive coordinator, who was let go after a 56-20 loss to Mesa Westwood on Sept. 25, had allowed her son to call audibles if he saw something on the defense that warranted a change. Marie Brewer said the coach was upset with him and told him they would need to talk, but it didn't come up until a Monday meeting. "He said, 'Hey, I felt like you disrespected me, and I can't have that on my team. You're off. Get your stuff and go,' "

Scottsdale Unified to close Copper Ridge, Laguna Prep schools

The action to close Laguna Prep and Copper Ridge at the board’s Oct. 6 meeting was eerily similar to one a year before, when SUSD Superintendent Scott Menzel guided the board to close Pima Elementary and Echo Canyon K-8.
