Football

Mira Costa High School and Mustang Football proudly celebrate a tradition of excellence, character, and community pride.

With countless CIF playoff appearances, five runner-up finishes, and three CIF championships, Mira Costa Football has earned its place among Southern California’s premier high school football programs. Much of that success has been built under the leadership of longtime Head Coach Don Morrow, whose commitment to developing both athletes and young men has shaped generations of Mustangs.

The Mira Costa Football program includes Varsity, Junior Varsity, and Freshman teams, united by a shared commitment to hard work, discipline, and the pride of wearing green and gold. While Friday nights at Waller Stadium are the heart of the season, the work never stops. Year-round conditioning, weight training, and preparation build the foundation for success on and off the field.

Few experiences compare to Friday Night Lights in our close-knit coastal community. When a Mustang runs onto the field wearing the iconic gold helmet, they become part of something far greater than themselves—a brotherhood built on tradition, sacrifice, and pride.

At its core, Mira Costa Football is about more than championships. Under Coach Morrow’s leadership, the program instills values that last a lifetime: integrity, perseverance, accountability, teamwork, and above all, love—for one another, for the program, and for the game. These lessons prepare players not only to compete on the field, but to lead with character throughout their lives.

As we honor our proud history, we celebrate the players, coaches, families, and community who continue to strengthen the Mustang tradition. Together, we look forward to an even brighter future of Mustang Pride.
