As the second half of the CIF Open Division state championship was in full swing at Cerritos College and it was looking good that Mater Dei of Santa Ana head coach Bruce Rollinson was going to collect his 300th win (counting forfeits), it began to be known on social media that California’s second winningest head football coach ever, Marijon Ancich from St. Paul of Santa Fe Springs, had died.
