In The Beginning

Greg Bolinger was one of the original founders of the Glendora Gators in Kare Youth League. He was also a member of two championship teams at Rio Hondo Prep in 1977 and 1979. Mr Bolinger was my first Leader in KYL back when I joined the program in 2nd grade. We reflect on some great memories at Wingate Park and his playing days at RHP. I attended my first Rio football game for a Gator team Outing as has become a tradition for many clubs over the years. Mr Bolinger has a deep connection to Rio Hondo Football. His son Clark is the play by play broadcaster on the NFHS Network, his daughter Darcy is the Cheerleading Coach, and his late father-in-law was the legendary Coach Randall Johnson. Greg Bolinger also made one of the biggest tackles in RHP Football history in the 1977 Title Game.
