Since our founding in 1997, Luz-Guerrero Early College (formerly Luz Academy of
Tucson) has been one of a handful of charter schools to recognize the importance
of competitive athletics in building the complete individual, a student who is ready
to participate in all that life has to offer.
Our high school belongs to the Southern Arizona Athletic Association (SAAA) where
18 schools compete across a year-long schedule. Our athletic program helps to develop
the total individual by instilling the true spirit of competition ― where pride,
fairness, and loyalty are taught. Sports also teach the concepts of academics, cooperation,
punctuality, respect and indeed the responsibility with a thought to creating future
leaders in our society.
Each Luz-Guerrero Early College student has the opportunity to participate in the
following competitive sports programs: Boys Basketball, Girls Basketball, Girls
Volleyball and Co-ed Soccer.
We take pride in our teams and have been the Champions and Finalists* in SAAA competitions
since the founding of the school. More recent records include:
Soccer (co-ed) – 2008-09, 2007-08 League Champions; 3rd Place – 2006-07
Volleyball – 2007-08 League Champions
Boys Basketball -2006-07 State Championship
Girls Basketball -2004-05 State Champions, 3rd Place 2005-06
