Roy Bohler was a college athletics coach and athletic director. He also had a standout college basketball career as a player, earning All-American status in 1916. While playing for Washington State, Bohler – a 5'11" center – led the Cougars to an NCAA national championship in 1916–17 while playing under head coach Fred Bohler, his older brother.
Bohler coached college football, basketball, and baseball. His football stints include being the head coach at Willamette, Beloit, and Chico State. While at Beloit he also served as the school's athletic director. He resigned in March 1929 because he disagreed with providing student-athletes with scholarship money, an opinion that began gaining support among Beloit's officials during his time as athletic director. In basketball, Bohler coached at Beloit as well as for Humboldt State. His longest tenure for any team, however, was as the head baseball coach for Chico State, a position he held for 17 seasons. Chico State has since named their baseball field "Roy Bohler Field". In his 17 years as Chico State's coach, he led them to 7 conference championships.
