randomuser Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Coach Kalinec was the baseball coach at Rusk HS when I was the baseball coach at Alto in the late 80’s. He was a good dude. If I’m not mistaken his dad was a coach Gil Kalinec?? Someone correct me if I’m wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threejs Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Played summer adult baseball with his brother Kevin, who coached at Ennis for years. Kevin was a 'character' and it sounds like his brother was as well from some of the things I've read recently. What an awful tragedy and huge loss to the family and community.

Matt Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 My age, Class of 1978. We (JVille) played against Kelly and CH all three years we were both on our respective varsity teams. He was a catcher, really good player. Played against him in football, too. His Dad Gil was the CH coach. Yes, his brother is Kevin. Sad, what a tragedy.
