For the handballers, Mr. Omollo was more than a coach: he was the driving force behind their grit and determination.

They recalled how he would often stand up for them in matches, unafraid to call out referees when he felt the team was being treated unfairly.

The grieving student added that they will never forget how he would literally roar at the referees who tried to sideline them.
