Oak Lawn high school gets a new coach, Jason Rhodes. Rhodes has spent nine season coaching at Kenwood in Chicago and led them to a regional title in 2008.
Crane, lost their head coach, Tim Anderson, to Pan American University in Texas. During his time at Crane, he not only maintained the Cougars tradition, but also elevated it as well, including winning 25 games a year ago and claiming a share of the Red-West title plus a sectional championship. His replacement is none other than Chris Head. Head has a resume' that simply says "win." He has compiled a record of 213-70 including a state title (2002). He is also responsible for building the Brooks program and they won state last year. Proviso East, where do you begin with this school... They have won 45 regional championships, 12 sectionals, 4 state titles and produced NBA legends such as Doc Rivers, Michael Finley, Dee Brown, to name a few. But that was in the early 1990's. Former coach David Chatman, just couldn't get the team to buy into their rich tradition. Now East is bringing in Donnie Boyce. We don't believe there no other new coach with more pressure than Boyce. The team itself is loaded with speed, experience and depth, and should stand out as a strong, caliber team. The one thing they don't have is size but coach Boyce will have to maneuver players and turn up some defensive pressure which should help the team win this season. |
