Former SLV coach Rob Collins RIP

Sorry to share the news that former San Lorenzo Valley coach Rob Collins passed away. Rob was a super successful coach at SLV with multiple state cross country championships as well as some of the top track and field runners in state history. His 2010 girls DMR team set the national record of 11:41.28 at the Penn Relays. Rob was recently inducted into the SLV Hall of Fame.

You can check out my interview with Coach Collins at this LINK from 2010.

RIP Rob.
