As the athletic director at Lima Central Catholic, and someone who has worked extremely hard to strengthen the relationship between Lima Senior and Lima Central Catholic, I have resisted joining the recent fray over the stadium name in the interest of maintaining that relationship.

However, when enough misinformation is spread without a response, it becomes the truth in the eyes of many people. So after the recent letter from Eddie Monfort, whom I’ve known for years and have great respect for, I felt the time had come to set the record straight and defend the school of which I have been a part of my entire life.

I saw a mention of how former Kenton Head Coach Mike Mauk was doing down in Missouri with his new team and thought about one of the RC's favorite head coaches........Coach Jerry Cooper, formerly of LCC. One of the posters stated that the problem at Kenton was that the new head coach wasn't nearly the coach as the former.....A good argument, but someone else mentioned that T-A-L-E-N-T is also very important......Coach Mauk has started the year 0-4 with his new school and Coach Cooper and the Seymour Eagles have also stumbled out of the gate with a 1-3 mark...They have also been outscored 116-66 in their four games........hardly LCC-esque stats......while Coach Mauk surely had some very good reasons to leave Kenton, going 0-4 to start the season is not exactly what he had in mind when taking over this program I'm thinkin'.........can't see this gig lasting longer than the current year if things remain the same...........Coach Cooper down in Seymour also has to be kicking himself for leaving LCC when he did....yea, I know that his wife wanted to retire and such, b...
