Rancho Cordova Sports Hall of Fame

Cordova’s first bona fide three-sport star, Volmer was named to the Bee/KFBK/KOVR 1st team All City team at quarterback and 1st team All County at Safety. He was unanimously chosen as Team Captain in varsity football, basketball and baseball – an accomplishment that has yet to be duplicated at Cordova High School. Volmer parlayed his leadership skills in education, serving as vice principal and various high-level positions during a 30-plus year career with the San Juan Unified and El Dorado Union high school districts. He later helped develop a teamwork training course that was adopted by the nuclear power industry.
