He was honored at the Hays USD 489 school board meeting on Monday, with Bruce Rupp, Hays Middle School athletic director, speaking on his behalf.

"If you see his basketball team on and off the court, they are by far our best-behaved team," Rupp said. "They are dressed in shirt and ties often. They make sure to take care of academics, so eligibility isn't an issue. He runs a very tight ship."

"He does everything and has done it well for a long time," Rupp said.
