Steve Cramblitt was known as a great high school baseball coach in Utah with a reputation of kindness and selflessness as well.

The late Steve Cramblitt, right, who won state championships in baseball at Taylorsville and Juan Diego high schools, in a photo with Barry Hecker, left, and Bob Wells, center.Steve Cramblitt’s coaching career hit its peak when he was molding high school baseball players to new heights. But it won’t be the wins and trophies that people will remember him by. Instead, it’ll be his unrelenting kindness and selflessness, and ability to teach young men invaluable life skills.

Cramblitt is sixth all-time in wins and tied with two other coaches for second all-time in state titles. He retired from coaching in 2010. He was most recently the athletic director at Rising Star Sports Ranch in Mesquite, Nev.

But Buck realized later that not receiving a varsity letter from Cramblitt wasn’t about his performance on the field, but more about teaching accountability and self-discipline. It was one of the life lessons the coach imparted that now sticks with not only Buck, but many other players and coaches who knew Cramblitt.

When Hecker was coaching the Westminster basketball team, he invited Cramblitt to come on as an assistant after he returned from the Vietnam War. They coached together until Cramblitt decided to transition fully to baseball. Cramblitt was also known for getting into his share of shenanigans with friends. Hoover said he and Cramblitt got kicked out of a Park City baseball tournament once because they were lobbying other coaches to participate in events for the Rising Star Sports Ranch. So they just hung out in the city for a few days before flying back to Nevada.
