Friday November 25th was a very special day for Coach Jim Cooper. Not only was it the beginning of another year as coach of the wildcats, #31 in his illustrious career, but he went into this season looking for victory #500.
He would get the chance for the career milestone versus an old nemesis Centerville. Centerville had ousted his wildcats in the district finals 3 times in the late 90’s. This night would be different however as the cats scored early and often as they rolled to an 8-0 victory in front of many family, friends and former players. As the clock ran out and the signs in the crowd read 500 Coop, who has forever put his players and team in front of himself, was able to bask a little in the glory of what only he and two other Ohio HS hockey coach have accomplished.
All of the players, family and freinds would like to congratulate you on this achievement and thank you for all of the time and love you have brought to so many of us and the program.
Coop wins #500
