Bill Tennison Memorial Tournament (Orangefield) Updates

Recommended Posts

The 36th annual Orangefield Basketball Tournament has been renamed after long time Orangefield Girls Basketball Coach Bill Tennison.  Coach T was a big part of the Orangefield Community and will be missed.  After his retirement in 1999, he rarely missed a game.  There will be a dedication ceremony to honor Coach T before the girls game Thursday at 5:45.  Everyone is encouraged to attend.

Also I will be at the tournament all three days and updating scores for both the girls and boys.

What a fitting tribute!!!  I coached against Bill for many years.  He was an icon in the coaching profession.  I respected him, not only as a coach but, as a man.  He not only attended the Lady Bobcat games, I would often see him at the Lamar Lady Cardinal games as well.  I'm sure renaming the tournament was an easy decision.  Nice touch!!
