He is a good one! How long has the baseball coach, Coach Martin been at Wylie? Seems like there is hardly any turnover in Bulldog land. Sandifer, Perkins, Martin all long tenures and all very successful.

You are right -- turnover has been very low. I think Coach Martin has been here for 20 or 21 years. He is well-liked and does a great job both on the field and in the classroom. Speaking of the classroom, that is where Coach Perkins will really be missed -- he is very gifted at teaching math. Based upon the article in the Reporter News, it sounds like that is where he will be focusing his energy.
