Augusta ? Roger Robben, a former Kansas University fullback who played for football coach Glen Mason from 1989-91, passed away unexpectedly Monday morning after returning home from a run.

He was 46.

Robben, a math teacher at Augusta High, coached most recently as an assistant at Bishop Carroll High in Wichita and helped lead Carroll to last weekend’s Class 5A state championship game. He also spent time as the head football coach at Remington, Buehler, Goddard and Augusta.

Before moving on to KU, Robben earned All-City League honors in 1986 as a linebacker and running back at Carroll. With the Jayhawks, he led the Big Eight Conference in tackles in 1989 and twice received All-Big Eight honorable mention honors.
