2022 Season

We have proudly been working with FOJ since 2011. This organization aims to improve the quality of life for children battling cancer by pairing them with sports teams, clubs and community groups. Our mission is to spread awareness about this wonderful group and encourage more teams to become affiliates and adopt new children into their programs

For this season, the team adopted and absolute warrior, Omar Carlon Jr.

Omar Carlon is Torrey Pines’ third adoptee, who at 10-years-old was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a rare type of bone cancer. Omar’s left leg was recently amputated, so his mother described what Wednesday’s ceremony meant to her.

“It’s very emotional for me because this is the first time he’s been out with so many people,” his mother, Nilsi Carlon, said. “It’s something I don’t want anyone to go through, it’s heartbreaking, but he’s such a good kid and I’m so happy for him.”
