Coach Gary Crane Retires From Warrior Basketball

Pueblo’s athletic department is sad to announce the retirement of Gary Crane as head basketball coach. After 35 years of loyal service to his alma mater, Coach Crane has decided to move on to another chapter in his life.

In his own words:

Friends & Family:

This past Monday (Feb. 28), after much deliberation I decided to resign my position as varsity boy’s basketball coach, thus, severing the last string that attached me to Pueblo High School. For thirty-five years, Pueblo High School was the center of my entire professional life. While the decision was and still remains very difficult, I believe it was simply time for me to take the next step in my life. I would like to be available to help shapes the lives of some other children, my grandchildren. First and foremost, I want to spend more time with my loving wife who has without reservation given up her summers and holidays to support me throughout this endeavor.

Sincerely,
Gary Crane

Coach Crane has touched many young athletes here at Pueblo and his presence will be missed!

On behalf of the entire Pueblo family, enjoy your retirement Coach.
