As I am sure many of you know, Lexington High School lost a beloved wife and educator during the Christmas Break. Hollee Muhl was the Principal of Lexington Middle School and the wife of Lexington Athletic Director, Kirk Muhl.

She suffered a head injury during a fall at the retirement dinner for their superintendent and was not able to be revived. She is survived by four children, ages sixth grade to two years of age. There is a benefit for her family this Sunday, March 8th.

Checks can be made to the Hollee Muhl Benefit.

You can also make donations at http://www.youcaring.com/memorial-fundraiser/hollee-muhl-family-support-fund/281309.

Any kind of financial help will be greatly appreciated.

Reggie Kumrow no longer AD/Head FB Coach at Paul Pewitt...
Monday, 23rd February 2015 - 6:36AM
I received an email this morning from Reggie Kumrow at Paul Pewitt High School, "I will not be the AD / Head Football Coach this next year at Paul Pewitt. My plan is to stay on as an assistant coach. This was all finalized last night."

Kumrow was 50-33 as the head football coach at Paul Pewitt, taking over from Brian Huckabay in 2008, including a 10-4 team in 2010. The Brahmas were 3-8 last season.

There are great men in coaching, Coach Kumrow is near the very top of class acts.

In his first interview since the announcement, the 46-year old Traylor told David Smoak, "To have the opportunity to join Coach Strong at The University of Texas was one I just couldn’t pass up. I have had chances to enter the college ranks before but this time it was just too good of an opportunity. I really believe in what Coach Strong stands for and I want to go help anyway I can." Traylor continued, "I believe Coach Strong will return Texas to national prominence and I would like to be a part of that."

Traylor's departure ends an unprecedented fifteen year run at his alma mater that includes an overall record of 175-26 and three state championships, including the Class 4-A, Division II state championship in 2014, "Any time there is change there will always be some anxiety. Gilmer, Texas is my home and I've lived in East Texas throughout my life, my entire family is from around here," Traylor added, "this is the most difficult decision I've ever made, Gilmer has been nothing but wonderful to my family throughout the fifteen years with the Buckeyes."
