ORWIGSBURG — Blue Mountain High School announced Tuesday that services for Mike Rollman will be held Saturday, Feb. 15, at 3 p.m. at Geschwindt Stabingas Ebling Funeral Home. The address is 25 E Main St, Schuylkill Haven, PA 17972.

Rollman, head coach of the two-time defending PIAA Class 4A state softball champion Blue Mountain Eagles, suddenly passed away early Sunday.

The Landingville resident was 37. He is survived by two children, Lilly Rollman and Michael Rollman.

In six seasons (including the missed 2020 season due to COVID 19), Rollman’s teams compiled a 101-22 record, an .821 winning percentage. Under his guidance, the Eagles captured three Schuylkill League Division I championships, two Schuylkill League playoff championships, three District 11 titles and the last two PIAA Class 4A state championships.

In his last game, Rollman led Blue Mountain to a 4-0 victory over Elizabeth Forward in the state title game last June.
