2019 Week 7: San Diego Section Coaches Make History

Ron Hamamoto’s crashing the top five in San Diego Section coaching ranks wasn’t the only significant career achievement last week.

–Grossmont’s Tom Karlo became the 42nd to reach 100 wins.

Hamamoto, whose Monte Vista squad defeated Chula Vista, 34-17, now has 229 victories, tying the 35-season mentor with Morse’s John Shacklett, who won 229 at Morse from 1971-2002.

Cathedral’s Sean Doyle won his 200th a couple weeks ago.

Another milestone will be in sight Friday night.

–Valley Center’s Rob Gilster has 228 victories and could gain a share of fifth, although No. 229 will require the Jaguars getting past the tough La Costa Canyon Mavericks.

Karlo, 56-31 at Grossmont since 2012 and 44-31-2 at Mount Miguel from 2005-11, tied Monte Vista’s Ed Carberry, 100-59-3 in two stints and 14 seasons, in the Foothillers’ 49-14 romp over Valhalla
