Had the opportunity to sit down with Coach Roy Lopez—one of the most respected and impactful coaches I’ve been around.

After spending more than 20 years as a head high school coach, with stints at Marcos De Niza, Sunnyside, Tolleson, and Desert Ridge, he’s now continuing to make an impact as the defensive line coach at powerhouse Hamilton HS.

We dive into leadership, building real relationships with players, the importance of administration in program success, and what it truly means to serve others through coaching. We also talk about his journey, his son’s path to the NFL, and the impact of the Roy Lopez Foundation.

This one is about culture, connection, and doing things the right way.
