I hate to sound selfish ...but we are losing great coaches in every sport across the board. Coach Orem has done an incredible job. First class. I have a soft spot for great coaches of female athletes. Coach always seemed to get the best out of the student athletes she was responsible for. I hope she enjoys her time away ... and I also hope she gets the itch to come back soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Double Deuce Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 This is such a shame. Coach Orem has a lot of flair and style, and for a myriad of reasons is an easy target for "haters", but she is a WINNER, her kids love her, and this loss is not great for HS Girls Basketball. I hope she lands another job, heck, maybe Thomas More takes a look at her, because she makes the sport better. You don't always have to love her sideline passion, but you have to respect all that she has accomplished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
