Talk to anyone who has spent time around the Arizona State Athletic Department over the last 35 years, and odds are good they will have a Don Bocchi story. It doesn’t matter if you were a coach, a student-athlete, office staff or even a student intern, more than likely you spent time with the man who is nearly as synonymous with Sun Devil athletics as Sparky himself.
“Coach Bocc” was a fixture in the Carson Student-Athlete Center, visiting offices on each and every floor to see if they needed anything that he could help provide, or to just stop and say hello.
