Richard Chamberlin

It is with heavy hearts and overwhelming sadness that the Pacific Grove Unified School District and Pacific Grove High School mourn the passing of Richard Chamberlin. Richard passed away after being struck by a car while walking home from a Wrestling Tournament. Some solace can be found in the fact that Richard was on his way home after finishing doing what he loved to do, helping students at Pacific Grove High School.
Richard Chamberlin has been an iconic fixture at Pacific Grove High School for the past 48 years. Richard was a teacher, coach and role model for students and staff. He was the most recognized and honored coach in the history of Pacific Grove High School. He coached 10 League Championship Teams, 2 Central Coast Section Champions and was named a Central Coast Section Honor Coach for Cross Country. He was voted as one of the top 25 coaches in Monterey County for the past 100 years. He has coached Track for many years, as well as Wrestling. He has been a leader statewide in Cross Country and Track for the past 40 years.
In the nearly half a century Richard has been at Pacific Grove High School he has touched the lives of thousands of students. His love for athletics and commitment to students is unmatched. His student/athletes will not only remember the high quality coaching they received from Richard but will also remember the season ending “montage parties”. When the team members would come to his house to make a montage of the season pictures and bake chocolate chip cookies. Richard complained of the “mess those kids made of my kitchen”, but it was always said with a wry smile and touch of pride.
Richard will be deeply missed by Pacific Grove High School and the city of Pacific Grove.
