Luebtow has devoted much of his career toteaching in Los Angeles and completing major commissions for public andprivate corporations including Hewlett Packard (HP), ARCO, American Air-lines, NESTLE (Carnation), and SCRIPPS Research Institute. In terms ofCal Lutheran’s football traditions, John’s “aura” emerged in 1964 when theKingsmen traveled to Colorado to face a very tough Colorado College. It wasJohn’s best game with Cal Lutheran winning 29-6. When the team was leav-ing after the game, the motel maid found a dusty, dirty old pair of women’sblue slippers in John’s room and this became “the mystical good luck charm”that set the stage for multiple years of winning seasons, national rankingsand a national championship.
A Business Management graduate from California Lutheran, Mike was inducted into Cal Lutheran’s Hall ofFame in 2007 and was enshrined in the Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame in 1998.

“We Few, We Happy Few, We Band of Brothers”
This notable passage is from William Shakespear’s play, Henry V,Act IV, in which King Henry’s cousin, Westmoreland, as the English troops were preparing for the Battle of Agincourt against
the French, dismays that the English are highly outnumbered and thatthe French knights are bigger, more skilled and moreheavily armoured. King Henry rises to the occasionand speaks inspirationally, “…the fewer men, thegreater share of honor”. ..and …”We few, we happyfew, we band of brothers”…will be victorious and each year feast and remember. Through Henry’s words and example, the English troops found“a reserve of courage” to deliver an extraordinary victory against all odds.This certainly sounds like Coach Shoup and the Kingsmen’s tradition!- Don DeMars

When RichardPederson, thefarmer who
owned the land on whichCLU was developed, re-sponded to Orville Dahl’s,CLU’s first president,knock on his door, in1957, he said “I have beenexpecting you.” In provid-ing the land, Pederson’sgoal was simple: “I want toprovide youth with thebenefits of a Christian ed-ucation in a day when spiritual values may well decide the courseof history.” Since that time CLU has never wavered. Expectinggreat things has always been at the core of CLU and it has re-mained steadfast in defining and being faithful to its spiritual val-ues.
Orville Dahl wasted little time in making the development of afirst class athletic program a high priority in CLU’s first year. Hehired a visionary athletic director, Luther Schwich, and then setabout the task of recruiting Coach Shoup as the University’sfounding football coach. Coach Shoup in turn brought with himDon Garrison, who was not only a successful and charismaticcoach in his own right, but like Shoup a person of deep personalfaith. e Shoup’s (Bob and Helen) arrived on the campus in thespring of 1962 and immediately set about the task of recruitingthe first football team. Along the way he recruited a couple of fac-ulty members, James Kallas, and Robert Hage to help him. Hagewas also a Dean at the college. Both of these men became legendsin their own right with regard to the development of the footballprogram and the academic tradition of the University.
In the fall of 1962 the first scraggy recruits showed up. erewere no fields on which to practice. e gym was under construc-tion, so Beta Hall, the men’s residence hall at the time, served asthe locker room until Mountclef Hall was finished that same fall.We started with two a days. ere was no hot water in the resi-dence hall. e practice field was a small grassy area located whereAlumni House (the Pederson home) is now located. Eventually wewere able to practice at Camarillo High School. Getting to prac-
The Beginningstice in the bus affectionately called “e White Tornado” and drivenby Norm Denison, was an adventure in survival in and of itself.
While the first team began its inaugural season with no homefield, Orville Dahl, Bob Shoup, and representatives from the LosAngeles Times, were able to attract a new NFL team, the DallasCowboys, to the campus for their summer camp. Working with theCowboys, the University was able to fast track the development ofbetter locker room and training facilities as well as the creation ofthe first home field and adjacent practice fields on the north cam-pus. For the next 26 years these two organizations, the CLU Kings-men, and the Dallas Cowboys, grew into very competitive andnationally recognized teams. Each team reached the pinnacle of
competition by winning their own versions of the national champi-onship. e Cowboys helped put the city of Dallas on the map, andKingsmen football helped to promote and develop brand identityfor this new fledgling university in the southwest. Tom Landry was aman of faith and high spiritual values as was coach Shoup and coachGarrison. In fact the “Letterman’s Club” as such organizations werecalled in those days, was named Chi Alpha Sigma, “Christians, Ath-letes, Scholars.” Perhaps Chi Alpha Sigma can become a part of thefoundation, history and tradition of e 5th Quarter.
e first season (1962) was the launching of the CLU footballprogram. It was a bare bones program. ere was no nickname orfight song. Facilities were limited at best. ere was no home field,or a strong student and community following. ose things werebeing developed on the fly, or sometime in the future. However, inthe great CLU tradition, players, coaches and students didn’t knowwhat they didn’t have. e team’s 1962 record 3-4, wasn’t as impor-tant as commitment and dedication of those first players andcoaches. Most of the players came from very competitive highschools and community college programs. ey were used to win-ning and having great facilities, traditions, a fight song, a band andcheerleaders backed by a large and faithful student body that hadcome to the same home field for years. In 1962 neither the Cowboysnor the Kingsmen had any of those amenities, but it didn’t matter.CLU players and those students and faculty were affectionatelycalled pioneers. ey pioneered. at’s what they did. ey laid thegroundwork, they had high expectations and they established themantra for a winning tradition that continues to this day.

coaching built upon the values and characteristics fostered byhis parents, his mentors and his faith. is approach towardscoaching and life among our own “band of brothers” has con-tinued to endue in our players and in many players that havetaken these lessons into their own coaching careers.

Superstition and ritual in sports isfound in all sports venues. It isgenerally something initially de-
veloped in hindsight, almost by accidentand then called upon in future events.Such superstitions arise when an athleteor team has an exceptional performanceand then tries to establish “cause and ef-fect” by trying to link any odd or un-usual circumstances at the time with theperformance breakthrough itself. Afterthis link is made in the mind of the ath-lete or athletes, through visualization orguided imagery, which today is the verybasis of sports psychology, the athlete orathletes call upon this “mojo” beforeeach competition.
e ritual mystique of the Blue Slip-pers at then California Lutheran Collegebegan early in the 1964 season when ourthree-year-old football program reachedits lowest ebb. Going in to the season,the young Kingsmen had won eight andlost eight after two seasons of suspectcompetition. Now, after a stunning 13-8win over La Verne College, CLC was inthe midst of a depressing losing streak.We lost to Occidental 28-7, were blanked by Southern Utah 26-0 andhumiliated by Claremont- Mudd 28-13.
e next game was to be our longest road trip to play a very toughColorado College team, and it was their homecoming game. In earlyOctober, the team flew into Colorado Springs and was met by an oldcity transit bus. We were taken to the edge of town to a very tired, sin-gle-story motel. e extra bags were put in the garage storage areaamong beat-up furniture, lost-and-found articles and miscellaneoushotel supplies. It had been a very long day, and we were tired and didnot have much spirit or enthusiasm. We had eaten on the plane so thenext order of business was to get back on the bus and go five milesdowntown where the campus was located for a practice session. Manyplayers had to stand on the crowded bus.
e college was on a beautiful site and the leaves had begun to changeon the trees. We got off the bus below campus at the stadium field levelin our game uniforms. e air was crisp and clean. As we began toloosen up and go through a light practice, our spirits began to rise and avocal camaraderie began to assert itself. We were not intimidated butwere like school kids on an outing.
is scene was then overshadowed from above with band music andcheers. Colorado College was having its homecoming pep rally. Clearlywe could hear from the PA system that …”this team from California isin the midst of a losing streak and we have beaten them before and weexpect them to be an easy opponent.” With that, we Kingsmen began toshout and cheer and the entire Colorado College student body andalumni came over to the edge of the stadium to see what was going on.
e next day was fabulous. Sunny, but cool. We cleaned out ourrooms, loaded up our gear and got on the bus to go to the college to tapeand dress for the game. at Saturday we controlled the Colorado Col-lege gridiron, and as we found out after our victory, the game wasrecorded for local television to be played that evening. For me personally
it was my best single game at Cal Lutheran,with over 120 yards rushing, a long punt re-turn and one touchdown. e final score was29-6. e line of John Paris, Fred Kemp, JimTschida, Cary Washburn, Roger Young andJerry Palmquist, and Safety / Wide ReceiverSkip Mooney and others was stunning. Every-thing went right. e holes were there for uson offense and not for Colorado on Defense.After the losing games we experienced priorto this game and as history has shown, thiswas the turning point in our team’s confi-dence and morale and set the stage for theBlue Slippers and the beginning of multipleyears of winning seasons, national rankingsand a national championship.
at Saturday evening some of us on theteam found a “local watering hole” for a little“imbibing” and to watch ourselves on TV. Al-though we discovered that we were not sowelcome sitting there imbibing and cheeringourselves on as we “devoured the locals”, but,fear not, for when you enter an establishmentwith “the big boys”…nobody bothers you.
e next morning as we boarded the bus todepart…the Blue Slippers…entered our lives.We were all seated and ready to leave whenCoach Shoup and Coach Garrison enteredthe bus laughing. Standing in front of the
bus, Coach Shoup honored us with accolades about his pleasurewith the victory and then he held up this scummey, dirty, disgustingold pair of women’s slippers and told us the cleaning woman hadfound them in my room and wanted to return them to me. Every-body laughed, but with this bit of humorous injection from thecoaches and the joy of a great upset victory under our belts, the ap-pearance of the Blue Slippers became identified with a magic mo-ment in our lives…a magic performance, and I became “the keeperof the Blue Slippers” until 1967.
e next week, CLC routed George Fox 59-0. We then won 33-9over Cal Tech and 14-8 over a very tough Cal State team. e fol-lowing week, we went to Pomona but the slippers stayed home andwe lost 14-8. e legend began. e last game was our Homecom-ing, and we beat UC Riverside 7-0. After that for some strange rea-son they became like a “mystical good luck charm”, even being hungup in the locker room with a white shoelace for players to touch orgive homage to at game time. en suddenly, they mysteriously van-ished.
During the next 10 years, CLU won eight state championshipsand a national title in 1971. In 1975 the CLU Kingsmen were the#1 rated team in both the NAIA Division II and the NCAA Divi-sion III, and even today we virtually control our conference and arenationally ranked.
POSTSCRIPTe Blue Slippers “good luck symbol” has been with the Kings-
men ever since they were found. Although no one is ready to “betthe farm” that they hold a mysterious power that transformed theKingsmen into the powerhouse they have become, no one is alsowilling to question this possibility.
e legend will continue…

The Tradition Continues
Coach McEnroe In April 2007, Ben McEnroe (Class of ’93) became the first alumni football coach to lead the
Kingsmen. One of the primary goals McEnroe set for the program was to embrace the rich historyand tradition of CLC/CLU football. Alumni players are welcomed inside the locker room beforeevery game, and Coach Shoup addresses the team before the Homecoming contest, holding an unde-feated record since the establishment of this tradition. At the conclusion of the 2007 football awardsbanquet, Coach Shoup presented Coach McEnroe with a “new” pair of Blue Slippers that the teamhas embraced, and the Kingsmen have won approximately 75% of their games since the Slippers re-turned to the locker room.
e last seven seasons have been the most successful in CLU’s NCAA era. During that span, theKingsmen have won 74% of their games, including five Southern California Intercollegiate AthleticConference (SCIAC) championships and the first four NCAA playoff appearances in school history.CLU is 39-5 vs. the SCIAC since 2007, and has claimed four of the last five conference titles.
In 2014, CLU will field one of the youngest teams in recent memory. e depth chart heading intotraining camp features a nice combination of youth and experience. Sophomore Quarterback DavidRico (Dinuba, CA) will enter camp as the starter, having finished the season starting the final threecontests, earning two victories and accounting for over 1,300 yards and 13 TDs in nine quarters ofaction. Rico’s primary targets will include his former high school teammate and three year starter,Andrew Worthley, as well as experienced Juniors Sean Bellotti and Justin Bloom. e Offensive Linewill feature three sophomores, a junior, and a senior as starters. Defensively, look for all-star Defen-sive End Anthony Monroe to lead the charge. Sophomore Linebacker Bryce Henderson gained valu-able experience in 2013, and Sophomore CornerbackLogan Sanders started as a freshman before being slowedby injuries at the end of the season.
e schedule will be challenging for the young Kings-men. ey will open on the road at nationally-rankedPacific Lutheran University on September 13th. efirst home game of 2014 is the first game of a two-gameseries with Willamette University on September 20th.CLU will travel to defending SCIAC champion Red-lands on October 11th for the annual Smudge Pot Tro-phy game. e schedule features five total homegames, including Homecoming on October 8th andSenior Day on November 15th. Home night gamesare scheduled on October 25th vs. Chapman and No-vember 8th vs. Occidental.

Salute to the 2011 Fighting Heart Award Winner Mike Cox.Mr. Reliable is how his former Coach, Bob Shoup, refers to Mike Cox. He was a starter for four years in both
football and baseball at Cal Lutheran from 1962 until 1966. He made no mental mistakes and was always pre-pared, never missing a practice or a game. He was on the “blue slipper team”…a foundational player.
Mike Cox was awarded the Fighting Heart Award in 2011 because of his strength and Continuing courage infighting a rare form of cancer in his throat, neck and on his tongue.After chemotherapy and radiation on these verysensitive tissues, with his devoted wife, Tony,applying the lotions to his burned tissues after each treatment, Mikehad lost his voice and was reduced to taking his food through a stomach tube. Nevertheless, you can never countout the resolve of “a fighting heart”. As in football, so too in life; Mike’s voice has returned, he is eating normallyagain and…he has prevailed!
