Quintero finds off-road calling [The San Diego Union-Tribune]
Growing up, Seth Quintero loved playing baseball.
Entering Mission Hills High, his goal was to earn a full-ride college soccer scholarship.

“I dabbled in other sports as a kid, but I started riding dirt bikes when I was seven,” Quintero said. “Racing is a family sport, but when my dad got in an accident riding dirt bikes, my family put a stop to that.
“So we had to go a different direction.”
