Joseph Burton Jr. was recently inducted into the North American Indigenous Athletics Hall of Fame for his prowess on the basketball court. A member of the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians, Burton was raised on the reservation and continues to live there during his sport’s off season.
Counting to 100 is something students at the Soboba Tribal Preschool are working on but it was a number they celebrated on Jan. 30 as it signaled the school year’s halfway mark.
