Webb named Bloomington athletic director

Bloomington High School faculty member Bill Webb has been selected as the athletic director at Bloomington High School, Webb told the Prep-dog minutes ago.

Webb, 56, is a Highland resident who graduated from San Gorgonio High School and Cal State San Bernardino. He played football, baseball and wrestled at San G. and played football at San Bernardino Valley College.

"I want to get the Victory With Honor program going at our school," Webb said. "It's overdue. And we want to do the right things and remember that student athletes are students first, then athletes."

Webb, who will begin his A.D. duties July 1, will replace Ron Taylor, who is resigning in June.

Webb was at Colton High School for 23 years and has been at Bloomington for the past three years. His current post is running the credit recovery labratory, for students who fall behind on attaining credits.

Webb is married (Karen) and has two daughters, Jennifer and Janice. Both were volleyball stars at Colton. Jennifer also was a three-time All-Big Ten volleyball player at the University of Iowa. She is the former Redlands High School girls volleyball coach and still teaches at Redlands.
