“These are two of the hardest working athletes I’ve coached in my career. They have great leadership skills and the ability to motivate their teammates. It’s like having coaches on the field at all times. They were instrumental in helping us break the Coffee High record with 23 team wins,” said Coffee High head coach Stan Hughes.
