Along with the shuffling of staff and new faculty members, Legacy has received a new Girls’ Athletic Coordinator along with nine new coaches.
Legacy’s new girls’ Athletic Coordinator, Michelle Morris, came to Legacy after coordinating at Cinco Ranch High in Katy, Texas. Morris is also now the Head Girls’ Basketball Coach.
“My expectations for the year are to play as a team and give 110% every day.” Morris said.
Shane Ferguson, the new football coach and Astronomy teacher, moved to Legacy for family reasons. At a closer distance than his previous school, Arlington Seguin, Legacy will provide a home for his son to eventually pass through.
“[To me] coaching means that you’re in a leadership position to help young grow into functioning individuals,” Ferguson said. “It’s not just about the sport but about life.”
While Ferguson views Legacy as an opportunity to better his family and his new athletes, Football Coach Joseph Sam views his upcoming coaching experience as a chance to improve a new group of student athletes.
“Legacy gave me the opportunity to coach at an awesome program,” Sam said. “Coaching is an opportunity to improve the lifestyle of a young man/woman in an arena that you and them enjoy.”
