After helping Servite become one of the top boys' soccer programs in Southern California, Jon Spencer said he has accepted a new challenge to be in charge of the boys' and girls' soccer programs at Trinity League rival Orange Lutheran.

"Looking for a great opportunity to help young men and young women at OLu," he said. "It's going to be a new experience."

In eight years at Servite, Spencer's teams won seven Trinity League titles and two Southern Section Division 1 championships. He'll be the head boys' coach for the Lancers and help oversee the girls' program.

He said he "loves the kids" at Servite but wanted to try a new challenge.

Spencer's top assistant at Servite, Jimmy Turner, is a leading candidate to replace him.
