Colton High School opened in 1895. It is one of the oldest high schools in the Inland Empire. In this daily feature, we celebrate Colton High’s rich history.
The 1979 Crimson and Gold is dedicated to groundsman E. Fayne Young.
Young, better known around campus as “Mickey,” was in charge of all the athletic fields. He chalked the lines on all the fields for sporting events, trimmed the baseball field, reseeded the football field in Memorial Stadium, and prepared the track for meets.
“Mickey is the most dedicated and hard working individual at Colton High School,” said former coach Harry Muñoz.
