I believe in jinxes. Sports jinxes. Do not talk to the pitcher when a no-hitter is in progress. Use the same golf ball marker for eight years after you shoot a 68. Don’t wear jersey No. 13 under any circumstances.
Most important, do not offend the basketball gods by asking Rincon/University High School coach Rich Utter about his greatest seasons 30 minutes before Tuesday’s Class 6A playoff game against Mesa Red Mountain.“I don’t need that type of pressure," he said with a half-smile.
People are also reading… What Rincon’s return to relevance signified is that the Rangers are not on the path fellow TUSD basketball rivals Santa Rita and Catalina have sadly taken. Those two enrollment-challenged schools, built along with Rincon during Tucson’s population boom of the 1950s and '60s, went a combined 1-35 this year and have employed a total of seven coaches in six years.
“We won two games that year in Elfrida," Utter remembers. He offers no explanation but raises his eyebrows for emphasis. Many more Rincon state titles followed, especially in boys swimming , boys tennis , boys golf and a couple in volleyball and boys soccer. Here’s my point: Sahuaro named its basketball gym after McConnell, and Pueblo named its basketball gym after LaVetter. Both are TUSD schools, so it’s not against the rules for Rincon to name its gym after Rich Utter.As you visit the many high school campuses in Tucson you are struck by the history. There is Mary Hines Gym at Catalina, named after that school’s pioneering girls volleyball coach. There is Vern Friedli Field at Amphitheater, named for its unforgettable football coach.
