Greminger Resigns After 25 Years as Agoura Coach

Agoura High football Coach Frank Greminger announced his resignation Friday after a 25-year career at the school.

Greminger, 55, had a record of 154-99-3 and led the Chargers to five Frontier League titles and a Southern Section Desert-Mountain Conference championship in 1984. He will continue to coach the Chargers’ golf team and teach physical education.

Agoura Athletic Director John Crow said applications for Greminger’s successor will be accepted at the Las Virgenes Unified School District office.

“It’s kind of a sad day,” Crow said. “How he stayed in that long is beyond me.”

Crow said Greminger, who could not be reached for comment, had tired of the time commitments required by football.

Greminger missed a game last season because of chest pains, checking into a hospital the day of a game against Santa Barbara.

Dan Lazarovits of Taft High committed to play football next season at Cal State Northridge.

Lazarovits, a 6-foot-4, 245-pound senior, played linebacker and offensive line at Taft, but Northridge wants to convert him into a defensive lineman, which is fine with Lazarovits.

“I felt CSUN has faith in me. They wanted to invest in me,” Lazarovits said. “They want me to come over and make an impact.”

Lazarovits, a two-time All-City Section selection, made no other official recruiting trips.
