In basketball, the 1998 SCHS grad was the high school sparkplug point guard teammate of SCHS Varsity Head Coach Marc Popovich. Further, In January of 2015, he was selected as a member of Triton Basketball's All-50 Team, the 50 greatest players in the history of the program. He frequently can still be seen lifting weights at local gyms or playing highly competitive organized or pick-up basketball games. For the past several years he has been the player coach for the alumni team in the program's traditional Alumni Game. After high school, Coach Montecinos moved on to Saddleback College, where he played football and basketball. Then he attended Greenville Christian College in |
Illinois, where he continued to play basketball and was voted captain of the football team.
Montecinos earned his bachelor of arts degree in both criminal justice and history with a minor in political science.
