A Conversation with Lake Forest High School Varsity Basketball Coach Phil LaScala
In this heartfelt episode of LF on Topic, Jennifer Karras and John Trkla reflect on the remarkable legacy of Coach Phil LaScala, who led the Lake Forest High School basketball program for nearly two decades. More than just a coach, LaScala built a culture centered on mentorship, leadership, and character development. Listeners hear how LaScala’s unique approach—pairing varsity seniors with underclassmen—helped ease the anxiety of transitioning into high school and created lasting bonds among players. The episode highlights how his guidance not only developed strong teams, including a 28-3 powerhouse in 2015, but also shaped hundreds of young athletes, including the hosts’ sons, into confident students and compassionate community members. From expanding the feeder program to promoting volunteerism, Coach LaScala’s influence extended far beyond the court. Through stories of end-of-season tributes and community impact, this episode is a moving tribute to a coach who taught his players to strive for excellence as athletes and as people. His six-time “Coach of the Year” recognition is just a small measure of the legacy he leaves behind.
