Yup.
Coach Keyes - girls basketball/soft ball - history - boring, but a good teacher
Coach Irby - head football/basketball coach - health- couldn't have given two hoots in hell, you were going to pass his health class. Took the Elks to 3 district championships. He was 5' 7" and went to college on a basketball scholarship.
Coach Turner - football - biology - genial and an excellent teacher
Coach Moore - ass't football - history - he was an alumni fresh from college. NEVER take your first teaching job at your alma mater. Nice enough guy, but we all knew him WAY too well! LOL!
When he tried to get tough on us at football practice, it went over like a lead balloon. NOBODY took him seriously.
I don't even think the head coach took him seriously.
Edit: Forgot about Coach Taylor - boys baseball - school principal. When I was hospitalized 22 years later, I got a get well card from he and his wife
Mrs. Taylor was the bookkeepping/typing teacher
Both retired from my alma mater and were well respected in the community.
