GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD COACH OF THE YEAR

Ryan Crane, Dana Hills

Under the leadership of Crane, the Dolphins continued their dominant run through one of the state's toughest leagues. Dana Hills won its sixth consecutive South Coast League title with an undefeated 4-0 record. The Dolphins finished second in the team competition at the Orange County Championships, the fifth year in a row they have placed in the top three at the county showcase. Crane was also honored as the Register's coach of the year in 2009.

"We've won six straight league titles and we're stoked to have done that," Crane said. "The kids have the talent, the passion and their expectations are high. Our coaching staff has done a tremendous job and gives a lot to the kids."
