He's had so many different awards and plaques. He's always been a loyal Kings Parker and the town means a lot to him. If they were running some kind of function Eddie was there.

He was their other father. That's just the kind of person he was.

They just called me up and said get over to Stony Brook Hospital right now. Ed had a heart attack. I actually got there before my sister did but he was already gone.

Considering that the majority of the staff are freshmen and earn awards as freshmen it's a good indication of next year. I was also very pleased to see sophomores win, it will help them transition to a four-year school. I also feel they learned that what they do makes a difference.

Ideally our goal is to increase the number of scholarships offered while also increasing the dollar amount of the awards.

You have to win the district and regional Coach of the Year awards to get to here. It's nice to be recognized by the coaches you work with all year, but I'm where I'm at right now because of the strong support group I have in this program. One person doesn't do what we're doing, it takes a lot of dedicated people.
