First-year Sacred Heart Cathedral football coach Barry McLaughlin received an email from the West Catholic Athletic League office Monday, with a list of scores, schedules and standings.
The Irish were at the top of the standings — the only unbeaten squad —at 3-0.
“Frankly, I just sort of chuckled,” said McLaughlin, a longtime SHC assistant with previous stops at Riordan, CCSF and Utah State.

McLaughlin hung that label on his team of fewer than 30 players because his team is filled with unheralded players. The Irish were a combined 10-40 over the previous five seasons, including 2-33 in WCAL play.
