Continuing to recognize Excellence in High School Coaching
The Frank McGuire Foundation will celebrate its 10th year by continuing to honor outstanding high school coaches. Four distinguished varsity coaches who are inspirational leaders in their schools and communities will receive grants of $5,000 in support of their school's athletic program.

The Frank McGuire Foundation celebrates those high school coaches who exemplify integrity, achievement and a continual quest for excellence from themselves and their athletes. The Frank McGuire Award honors the coach who perseveres and succeeds in making the job a higher calling, one that inspires young people to improve themselves in all aspects of life…a coach who lives in the memory of Frank McGuire.

Forty coaches have received this honor to date and the Foundation has provided their schools with a total of $400,000.

Congratulations to the 2007 Honoree Coaches: Coach Tom Pugh Football Holy Cross High School Coach Nancy Williams Softball/Field Hockey Shore Regional High School Coach Dan Doherty Track & Field Pearl River High School Coach Chuck Granby Basketball Math/Science Research & Technology [Magnet High School.
