Palos Verdes Sea Kings Sports

, the school's official mascot. Their cross-town rival is the PVPHS Panthers, whom they battle in various sports for the "King of the Hill". This is a recent development coming a few years after the reopening in 2002, as the teams were not closely aligned or regularly matched up immediately thereafter due to sizeable differences in enrollment. The original cross-town rival was the Rolling Hills High School Titans, the original school housed on the PVPHS campus before district wide consolidation took effect.
In 1965 the Sea Kings captured their first CIF championship in any sport as the undefeated (11-0-1) football team defeated Tustin Foothill 20-7 to capture the CIF AA Championship. Earlier that season marked the first meeting ever on the gridiron between the Sea Kings and their cross-town rivals the Rolling Hills Titans (Peninsula Panthers.) The Sea Kings won that first-ever game 28-7.
In 1975, a notable date in the school's sports history, the Sea Kings won the CIF
Boys Basketball Championship, defeating perennial champion Verbum Dei High School
in the semi-finals in one of the biggest upsets in California high school basketball history. Palos Verdes was led by future NBA all-star Bill Laimbeer
, while Verbum Dei's biggest star was David Greenwood
, who became Laimbeer's teammate on the 1990 Detroit Pistons
NBA championship team.
The Sea Kings have won many CIF titles over the years in several other boys and girls sports, and a few teams have even been recognized at the state or national level. Circa 1990, it claimed a national championship in both girls basketball as well as boys soccer, as recognized by USA Today
. Most recently, the school has claimed CIF titles in baseball (2005), boys lacrosse, and in boys soccer for the 2006-07 season.
The Red Tide, is a student-run spirit organization that supports the sports teams. Started specifically to cheer for boys basketball, the Red Tide is a major presence at most games, where an entire section of the bleachers is often a sea of red. Their taglines include "Roll Tide," "Tritons Up," and "Red Tide Nation."
