Can't find the words to truly explain what you have meant to the BC high school sports community we both love so dearly. And I can't thank you enough for your support every step of the way. True passion is so hard to describe, but you embody it. Stay close! You will be missed!

Today my 18 year career of coaching with @HyackFootball came to an end. I’ll explain why at a later date. In the meantime, I really appreciated one final day on the field with these kids. For more check out my IG: farhanlaljitsn
