The Laguna Beach High softball begins a new season under the direction of a new head coach, Mark Linton.
The Breakers open play Saturday in the Costa Mesa Tournament. On Tuesday, they play a 3:15 p.m. nonleague game at Bolsa Grande and open their home schedule at 3:15 p.m. Wednesday against Buena Park in another nonleague game.
