Whoever made this list must be blind and has never seen Robbie Zauck. The kid had 23 tackles vs. Vinelane and is getting D1 offers.

Comment on Red & White Weekend Coming For OCHS Alumni

I think your selection of 100 or more people that contributed to the sports history of OCHS was flawed. Names such as Howard(Mickey)Smith, Bert Avis, Walter Buckhoults, Ellis Ford Sr, Thomas Selby, Cut Renalds, Wayne Thompson, Ed Keenan, John Henry, Bob Moncrief, Nate Davis, Bernard Carter, and my self were omitted. Why not mention the first State Title in any sport for OCHS was won by the 1954-55 basketball team, which I was member of. As a matter of fact I was the third or fourth leading scorer on the team. Made Honorable Mention on the All Cape Atlantic League AllStar Team. I think you should use sources other than Richard Grimes to determine the contributions of the athletes from the westside. Check the record books for OCHS to determine the contributions the above named individuals made to enhance the strong sports programs of the school.

Respectfully,
Ted Ford

Comment on Parents and Coaches - Part 2

2009-06-19T01:30:14Z

Tom,
Brilliant piece on parent-coach relationships. As you may be aware, my wife coached for fifteen years. She did not have anyone that had her back like you. I truly hope that parents will get it. Every coach I have ever played for, met, coached my five children or in my case I live with, do it because they love the players and love the game. You should be commended for getting the message out. Congratulations on a great and very interesting piece,
Tom
