Jeff Bidwell Paid an Unbelievable Tribute to Coach Paul Leahy<br />

Jeff is the best right up there with Larry McIntosh<br />

Paul Leahy’s Six Seasons as Head Coach<br />

1993: 12-3 (State champions) 1996: 12-2<br />

1994: 11-3 1997: 10-2<br />

1995: 14-1 (State Champions) 1998: 14-1 (State runner-up)<br />

The picture above shows Coach Paul Leahy retiring and Assistant Coach <strong>Joe</strong> <strong>Morris</strong> becomes Head Coach.<br />

<strong>Joe</strong> said that Coach Leahy was his mentor and his advice was to be yourself--not Jack <strong>Morris</strong> or me but be<br />

yourself. He will be missed by so many players, fans, teachers. Coach Leahy also was the assistant coach<br />

under Jack <strong>Morris</strong> beginning in 1971 as freshman coach. Also track coach from 1974-1990 and the track<br />

carries his name. Jeff Bidwell closed by saying we lost a coach and a character.<br />
