Massillon's Washington High School is in shock after the sudden death of a popular coach Monday, reported NewsChannel5.

Coach Steve Studer collapsed and died of an apparent heart attack Monday morning, in a hallway outside the school office.

Studer, 51, was the strength and conditioning coach, one of four generations of Studers to play at the school, and a member of its sports wall of fame.

Studer was a man held in awe by many student athletes at Washington.

"All I had to do was just come in and see Coach Studer. He was always a happy guy, he always kept himself real healthy. He was like Superman to us, basically," said student Billy Relford.

"He meant everything to the success of this program," said athletic director Rick Sheppas. "He was the one person that was the glue that held this football program together through the last four football coaches."

Massillon superintendent Alfred Hennon said Studer was a big man, but also a great man.

"Physically, he was imposing. But deep down inside, he just had such a big heart for anyone who wanted to get close to him," said Hennon.
