of Coach
Bob Gerbino"
Bob Gerbino was a teacher,
coach and athletic director in
the Seaford School District for
a total of 30 years. While his
accomplishments were many,
it was in the wrestling arena
that Mr. Gerbino excelled and
made himself a statewide
reputation. He established
wrestling as a varsity sport at
Seaford High School in 1956
and became known as the
"Father of Seaford Wrestling".
Bob coached hundreds of
Seaford wrestlers during his
20 years at the helm capturing
12 team championships. As
head coach, he developed
one of the best wrestling
programs in Nassau County.
His teams demonstrated
excellence on and off the mat.
Home matches became a
community event where an
enthusiastic
crowd commonly experienced
"Standing Room Only"
accommodations.
On February 3, 1998, Mr.
Gerbino succumbed to
Alzheimer's disease after a
courageous fourteen-year
battle. Even after his passing,
Coach Gerbino continues to
influence many individuals
he taught and coached at
Seaford High School. In 2000,
Coach Gerbino was voted
Seaford Wrestling's:
"Man of the Century".
The Annual Bob Gerbino Night
Wrestling Match
commemorates
Mr. Gerbino's many
accomplishments and
contributions to
Seaford High School and the
sport of wrestling.
