I received an email from Harleton ISD superintendent Craig Coleman on the pending retirement of Jackie Lloyd as the AD/Head Football Coach. Lloyd was 22-10 in 3-years as AD/Head Football Coach at Harleton. He was a long-time assistant coach at Marshall High School (15-years) before becoming the offensive coordinator for ten years under Dennis Alexander at Harleton.

Harleton will begin taking applications immediately.

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.
