Senior Aiden Robison handing the “Region 5 Coach of the Year” award to Coach Kyle Downs. During Robison’s speech, he pulled out a gift bag, with an award for Downs being named the “Coach of the Year,” from their regionals match. “I didn’t do anything different this year than I did in any other past years. You know, you win awards, and you don’t win awards, and it’s always nice to win it, but it’s not something that I look forth, at the beginning of the year,” said Downs, “It’s cool to get it, I’ve gotten it twice. You know, I’m two time defending FBLA Region Adviser of the Year, and you know, they’re cool to get; to get awards and stuff like that, it means that you’re kind of doing a good job, but it also means that you have good people around you, you have good players, you have good support, and at the end of the day, it’s an award, and it’s nice to have, but, you know it’s not about me, it’s about the kids, and as long as they’re being successful, then I’ll be fine whether I get one of those, or not.”

Senior Aiden Robison getting ready for ‘Hole 9’ at the Heritage Hill Golf Course against Grayson County. Robison did not do too well for the final hole of the Sept. 11 golf match. “I hit my first shot in the bunker on the right, and then I hit that about ten yards, and then I hit that ball into the hazard left, and then I had to drop, and then I got that on the green, and then two putted. I think the reason for that is I turned around and saw Downs’ shoes, and ate fareway, and I just get such an angry feeling whenever I see those, (jokingly said that), and I just can't humanly explain it, and I feel like that is the reason I doubled mine,” said Robison.
