Longtime Bay Area high school girls basketball coach dies

By Sherman Alexie On Oct 19, 2023

Dave Matsu was remembered on Monday as a “best friend” to his son and more than a high school girls basketball coach.

Matsu, 54, died on Saturday, one week after suffering a stroke.

Justin Matsu, who coached alongside his father at Mills High in Millbrae, wrote Monday on social media, “My best friend, mentor, golf partner. Love and miss you so much already pops. Life will never be the same without you. Coaching will never be the same without but I promise to carry on your legacy. A hui hou dad.”

The father-son duo led Mills to the Central Coast Section Division III championship last season, the program’s first section title since 1985.

Dave Matsu coached at Mills for 16 seasons, winning 253 games, according to results reported to MaxPreps.
