ROSEMEAD, Calif. - Californer -- Don Bosco Technical Institute (Bosco Tech) has named alumnus Adam Uballez varsity football head coach. Uballez, a 2012 graduate of the school's Materials Science, Engineering Technology program, started his coaching career at the Tech as a junior varsity offensive coordinator and linebacker coach in 2013. He was promoted to varsity staff in 2015 as linebacker and running back coach.

Since that time, Uballez has coached at several area schools, including Cathedral High School and Wilson High School. This past season, Uballez served as defensive coordinator at San Marino High School. Uballez, who has a bachelor's degree in Sociology from California State University, Northridge, is also a children's social worker with the Los Angeles County Department of Children Family Services.

"I'm very confident that Coach Uballez' dedication to the wellbeing of young people, attention to detail, excellent communication skills, and clear vision will be advantageous to our football program and to our school, as a whole," said Tech Athletic Director Vincent Nolasco. "He brings a well-earned balance of coaching experience and is thoroughly knowledgeable about all key elements that comprise a first-rate program. In addition to the enthusiasm and leadership that he brings, his unique perspective as a Tech alumnus means that he understands our students and the demands of our rigorous applied-science college preparatory program."
