The Blue Mountain community is mourning the sudden passing of Varsity Softball Head Coach Mike Rollman.
Coach Rollman guided the Blue Mountain softball team to success, capturing back-to-back PIAA Class 4A State Championships in 2023 and 2024. Under his leadership, the team also secured their first-ever Schuylkill League Championship in 2023.
In 2024, Rollman also celebrated the milestone of 100 wins as a head coach.
The Blue Mountain School District released a statement Monday morning announcing his passing:
"We are deeply saddened to share the passing of Coach Mike Rollman. His kindness, leadership, and dedication will leave a lasting impact on our athletes and community. Coach Rollman inspired students to be better individuals, both on and off the softball field. Our thoughts are with his family during this difficult time. Grief counselors are available at BMHS for support."
