While Watson stepped away from his head coaching role for three seasons, he remained involved with basketball. “What made them so tough last year is they were hard to defend. They had shooters, then they had rebounders and they could run the floor, so they were real difficult to defend.”
“I’m a sports nut and have been involved in rec for many years and helped out with all of my kid’s stuff over the years, and hadn’t had an opportunity to coach what I actually did in college in track and cross country,” Parker said. “The opportunity popped up … they were looking for a coach for the boys team … and got approached by Vince Janney and we talked and met about it.
