Coach Owens sent me quotes on this opportunity at Frankston, knowing it's not official until school board approval on Wednesday, "Well it was the right call at the right time. I was sitting in the doctors office waiting to be seen and It dawned on me that this is the most exciting thing I have done in four years. I had just had that thought when the superintendent (Micca Lewis) in Frankston calls and asks if I might be interested. I told him I would come look at it last Thursday. When I got there I was impressed by their facilities and I met some of the kids. Meeting the kids was the thing that made me decide to do it. Frankston was an unexpected pleasure. They have some of the highest test scores in the whole area. They had over 100 move-ins from places like Tyler and the surrounding area. They asked me why I wanted to come to Frankston. #1. Because they called, and # 2 good faculties and kids, and #3 an outstanding Superintendent that has pushed them to be excellent in everything. If I had young kids I would pack up and move to Frankston due to their outstanding academic achievements. Frankston gives kids an opportunity to have a first class education and to participate in athletics at a high level. It is a great small town atmosphere."
