Happy Birthday to one of the best high school coaches Ohio has ever seen! 61 years young and still coaches every game like it's his last. Happy birthday Coach Tucci!
The village of Malvern is hurting this morning. Local legend Glenn Clark passed this morning. Please keep him and his family in your prayers!
#RIP

Our Malvern basketball family is hurting this evening. Hall of famer Todd Reed passed away. He did an incredible job of covering us over the years. Not only did he cover us, but he was also one of our biggest supporters. We will surely miss his sense of humor!
