We send our deepest condolences to Coach Lindle Blevins family and friends. “Coaching is a profession of love. You can’t coach people unless you love them.” – Eddie Robinson Coach B taught countless students how to play and succeed in basketball, a true legendary feat in itself, but what made him a great coach was he taught students how to be better people.
Coach B dedicated over 40 years to teaching and coaching. He fought the good fight and left lasting impressions on so many and was a great role model for his family, students, and anyone he met.
Rest in Peace Coach B!

The teams made it to state and the coaches agreed to haircuts. Enjoy the photos from Coach B holding up his end of the bargain.
