Sorry to hear the news. He was at New Boston several years ago and a couple of other schools. I wish him the best!

Whatever the reason maybe it might cause undo health problems or stress. Maybe the talk should go more toward West players/coaches that are there now.

I think they play tonight, so some questions should be answered at the game.

Triplett took over coaching BB before during the season not varsity.He didn't seem to enjoy it to much. Things may have changed since then. If he could get more paid assistant football coaches out of it I could see he doing it.

Was that Triplett on the bench? Sammons coached the Varsity, and a younger guy coached the JV. There was someone else joining them on the bench. Was it him?

Whoever was there, hats off to the Senators on a hard fought win. I was impressed with the hustle from Portsmouth West on all levels. They played some inspired ball tonight.
