A
Little History About the Famous Los Angeles Southern League
The famous "Southern
League" high school athletic conference of the Los Angeles City Schools represented
the pride of the postwar Los Angeles African American community. The Southern League high
schools include: Dorsey, Fremont, Jefferson, Manuel Arts, Los Angeles and Washington High
from the 1940's well into the 1970's. Athletically, Southern League athletes overcame the
many social obstacles of the time to dominate the sports scene and achieve local, state
and national prominence, particularly in basketball and track & field as those sports
traditionally identified "State Champions". Athletes from the Southern League
went on to become among the first African-American high school students to receive sports
scholarships to major universities. Many went on into successful careers in professional
sports and other walks of life, and have left their mark on American society. Those
students who attended Southern League schools from the 50's through the 80's didn't know
they were making history.
