A brief biography is also on the front, "Loyalty is Randy Mtheany's middle name. There are few, indeed, who have given so much to one San Mateo County high school as an athlete, coach and mentor. A graduate of Hillsdale High School in 1974, Randy has coached there for nearly three-and-a-half decades. His successful coaching tenures with the boys' basketball and girls' softball programs are a testament to his devotion, persistence and expertise. Randy's records are stellar. His softball teams have won 484 games, 12 PAL championships, and three Central Coast Section titles through 2015. Randy's 1990 Hillsdale softball team was ranked No.1 in California by USA Today. His varsity basketball teams captured nearly 90 victories and made five post-season playoff appearances." The back of the plaque has an oval sticker with the logo and contact information for Spotlight Impressions, the manufacturer of the plaque. |

"Glenn Reeves: Family affair at Hillsdale High Glenn Reeves San Mateo County Times POSTED: 04/02/2009 02:02:33 PM PDT | UPDATED: 7 YEARS AGO TWO YEARS AGO, Randy Metheany retired as Hillsdale High School boys basketball coach. He had coached at the school since he was 22. In his mid-50s, he felt it was time to turn it over to Brett Stevenson, his younger, more energetic disciple. It turned out to be a short retirement. Hillsdale came calling, and Metheany was there to answer. Hillsdale athletic director Brad Zucker told Metheany he needed a softball coach, and time was running out, his back was against the wall. So Metheany has returned to the school he loves, coaching softball. "It's kind of ironic," Metheany said. "I never thought I'd coach softball again, but I'm having a lot of fun." Once again, Metheany is grooming his successors. "I'm just going to fill in for a few years until Maureen Brady and Michelle Driscoll are ready to take over,'' Metheany said.
