OK, we’ve taken care of the news thing and announced that Coach Elena Lovato is leaving TVCC. If you are looking for details about that, read this.

Now for the sad part.

I am going to be so sorry to see Coach Lovato leave. I know it was inevitable … she is an amazingly talented coach who deserves to move up and who I know we will one day see as a head coach on ESPN.

But I am going to miss her for more than wins … can’t say losses, because there were hardly any of those. I am going to miss her because she is class and dignity personified. She cares about her players and always does things the right way. She is a role model for the team, the school and the community.

Yes, she is all of that and even more. I really can’t find the words to say how much we are going to miss Coach Lovato or how impressed I’ve been while watching her the last two years.

Good luck, Coach … We love you and always will.
