I really hate hearing this news. I am sure whoever steps in will do a good job. Coach Dawn will be greatly missed. A true class act.

George Stoll will be the next head coach. Good guy.

RON DAWN HAS RETIRED Per Rich Skinner

 

Dislike

 

Girls HS basketball needs top notch coaching talent like Ron. I am sorry to hear this!

Didn't see this coming, considering what talent he had coming back in the Fr. & soph. classes. I know they had the Basketball Awards Banquet tonight up on the Hill. I'm sure a few tears were shed, as well as, a few jaws hitting the floor this evening with this announcement.

 

CLASS ACT ALL THE WAY, CONGRATS TO COACH DAWN.

I know this, the rest of NKY is happy if not the entire state. The guy could beat better teams all day long, he had a way of making players compete and perform at very high levels. Good luck and congrats to Coach Dawn on his retirement.

He's 56 and he's got the hair of an 18-year-old!

Ronny would be a great guy to do a ROAST on. Id say they would come out of the woodwork and off the knob to pay tribute to this icon.

I think you've just come up with the biggest fundraiser in NC history.

Great coach and very nice guy. I played against his St Henry teams and he was a very intense guy who knew the game very well. Congrats Coach and enjoy your retirement.

I'm surprised at this as well. I talked at length with Coach Dawn at the Sweet Sixteen reception for KABC regional POY's and COY's and he gave no indictation this was coming, even when we talked about what he had coming back for next season.

 

Coach Dawn was twice honored at the event and later during halftime of one of the tournament games, once as the ninth region Coach of the Year and also as a Century Award winner for achieving his 400th win.

 

This guy is truly a gentleman and an outstanding coach and the NKY area and girls basketball has suffered a loss with his retirement. I wish Ron the absolute best in retirement and hope he will continue to be involved in some fashion in the NKY sports scene.

This is a huge loss to the New Cath girls basketball program. Ron is a great guy and a great coach. I'm sure he will still be around to help out. From what I'm hearing, everyone was shocked at the announcement last night. I am suprised they handed the job down, versus taking apps for someone with Head coaching experience? Stoll will be a good coach one day, but just hard to fill the shoes of such a great one. Good luck to coach Dawn and the lady Breds.

Good idea Clyde, I'll pass this idea along to Bob Noll. If it comes to fruition I'll see to it you get in free, since it was your idea.:thumb:

Please. I just commented on the brilliance of the idea posed by Sweep. Give him my free ticket.

Wow what a shocker and a great loss for NCC. It will be very difficult for anyone to replace him. He is a really outstanding coach and a great person.
