As I reflect on the past and look forward to what I can do to continue to be a “Beacon of light in the lives of students, parents, players, friends, co-workers, family, community, church and school. Teach them that success is failure turned inside out, stick to the fight “Don’t Quit” A Winner never quits and a quitter never wins.”
