February, 2004: CBS's official bio for Rob
during the Survivor: All-Stars season:
"Since being voted off seventh on SURVIVOR: MARQUESAS,
Robert Mariano has appeared at many charity functions, enjoyed
traveling all over the world and acted as a host for the Hawaiian
Tropic Model Search Competition last summer in Boston. Two
of his most memorable adventures were traveling to Italy last
spring with his father and throwing out the first pitch at
the Red Sox game last Labor Day when the team hosted the Yankees
at Fenway Park.
Rob was born and raised in Boston. Growing up,
he was very involved in athletics, especially hockey, baseball
and football. He attended Xaverian Brothers High School, where
he played on the varsity hockey team and helped his golf team
win the state championship in 1991-92. Rob then attended Boston
University, where he boxed and played rugby. In 1999, he graduated
with a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology.
Rob currently works
as a construction foreman and part-time bartender, while also
serving as head coach for Boston University's Inline Hockey
Team (which he has done since its inception in 1999). In 2001,
he coached the team to victory at their first League Championship
followed by another victory at their first National Tournament,
where they proceeded to defeat the two-time defending national
champion Michigan State Spartans in overtime. Always encouraging
his team to give 110 percent, Rob has since coached the team
to two additional National Tournament appearances and one League
Championship.
Rob's hobbies include hockey, fishing
and playing cards. In 2000, he woke up the day of the Boston
Marathon and decided to run it as an unofficial entry with
absolutely no training. He stopped along the way to eat burgers
and drink beer. He ended up walking the last 13 miles of the
race and finished in 6 hours and 20 minutes. He couldn't walk
for three days afterwards.
Rob continues to call Boston home and his family
remains most important thing in his life. He has one brother,
Mike, one sister, Heather, and his parents are Bob and Linda.
He is currently single and living in Canton, Massachusetts.
His birth date is December 25, 1975." |
