Pirate Football Up to 25 Transfers from 2019 Team

Updated from March 25, 2020 article. Updated 8/7/2020

Ventura College football coach Steve Mooshagian has announced 25 transfers from the 2019 Northern Conference champion Pirates, five of whom were mid-year transfers. Among the transfers and signees, 12 are moving on to NCAA Division I, eight to NCAA Division II, one to NAIA and four to the NCAA Division III level.

Many of these transfers were part of VC's 2018 Southern California Football Association championship team, and they helped lead a relatively young Pirate team in 2019 to a share of the Northern Conference title.

With the addition of these transfers, coach Mooshagian has now helped 259 student athletes move on to the four-year level in his ten years leading the Pirates. The Pirate mentor anticipates more transfers following the completion of summer school.
