F.C Blades,
As I couldn’t speak to all yesterday in my send-off I will at least do it through message. Starting January 3 I will start a new chapter in my life as I pursue a double major in business administration and political science at Pepperdine. I thank the entire Blades family in making what once was a thought, a success. I commend the kids’ desire to be their best and the parents’ sacrifices. You all have tremendous potential and with desire and support, there are no limits. Ladies and gentlemen, it has been a pleasure and an honor, to have served as your coach. We will be having a formal season finale banquet around mid January so please stay tuned. This is not a farewell, it’s merely a hiatus. Remember me by the following words and I love you all, “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind” - Romans 12:2
