Head Varsity Coaches It is hard for the averasie person to realize the many hours of practice, and condition- ing, that go into a short game of perhaps an hour. We the spectators see only a small portion of months of practice before and after school. We do not know the amount of time spent, not only by the boys themselves, but by the coaching staff. One of the key factors of a succe.ssful team, in any sport is the coaches. We at Pacific are very proud of the fine staff we have behind our teams. They have coached over eighty vears between them. This ex- perience paid off esj ecially in the 1959-60 season when we won CBL championships in basketball, wrestling and tennis. The pirate wrestlers also captured the CIF crown. Among this talent is John Grenfell who has been president of the CBL Coaching Association for three years; Joe Lash who was voted Coach of the Year for the 1957- 58 season: Al Liles who gave us a CIF wrestling title for the first time; and Bob Webster who coached his varsity basketball squad to the first CBL championship in bas- ketball at Pacific. These are only a few of the attainments of this outstanding stafT. With these men back- ing Pacific and her squads, we made a fine showing in the CBL tilts this year. S N ' COACH LASH FOOTBALL Joe Lash, head varsity football coach, at- tended Colton Union High School, San Ber- nardino Valley College, the University of Ne- vada at Reno, and has been at Pacific for two years. His background includes Navy, 1951 to 1953, all CBL Football in 1947, honorable mention. Eastern Conference at SBVC, and was voted Coach of the Year in CBL Foot- ball in 1957-58. COACH MILLER CROSS COUNTRY Cross-country coach, Jim Miller, has been on the teaching and coaching staff at Pacific for four years. As a high school student, he participated in all sports. Mr. Miller contin- ued his education at the University of Cali- fornia at Los Angeles. Cross-country has just recently become a well-established sport and Jim Miller is our second such coach. COACH WEBSTER BASKETBALL Basketball coach Bob Webster has been at Pacific for seven years. He directed Pacific to a CBL championship in the 59-60 season. Mr. Webster ' s background includes the AAU team in basketball for Los Angeles City; a three year letterman in baseball and basketball at USC; three years in Pro baseball with the Yankee chain; and half a year in Pro basket- ball. COACH LILES WRESTLING Wrestling is the newest major sport at Pa- cific. Mr. Liles coached his team not only to a CBL championship in 1959-60, but to a Cali- fornia Interscholastic Federation title. This is the first CIF championship team in the San Bernardino school district since 1927 when San Bernardino High School won in baseball. He also instigated a unique wrestling hand- book. 272
