A high school football coach with more than 200 wins for his teams died in an afternoon truck accident. DPS is investigating the accident but reports indicate that the coach's truck may have left the roadway and rammed into an embankment.
Reports indicate that the coach apparently died at the scene. There is no other explanation of the accident. The coach had coached for three different high schools over his lengthy career.
One of the most influential people in young men's lives is their coach from sports. Especially, at the high school at age when many young men seem to have less interest in parents advice, but listen closely to their coach.
The discipline and commitment that some coaches gift to their athletes can well serve the young men and women going forward in life.
While I am sorry for the coach’s family, it is clear that he left a long legacy of helping young men and positively impacting his community.
