You Won't Find Any Better


West Grand High School head coach Chris Brown earned his 306th victory Friday evening, tying him for the record in the state of Colorado.  While that is an amazing accomplishment, and something I'm sure he is very proud of, this win came amid some very difficult circumstances.  Please read the linked article for the story:  http://chsaanow.com/2015-10-30/with-heavy-hearts-west-grand-football-gives-coach-record-tying-306th-win/  The Mustangs were playing days after the passing of junior quarterback JD Guess.  An outstanding young man, JD was killed in a car accident on the way home from practice Tuesday evening.  Coach Brown, and all the assistant coaches that have worked with him over the years, always had the ability to prepare us to play our best while keeping the game in proper perspective.  Friday night's was the latest, greatest example of this.

Congratulations to Coach Brown, you won't find any better, and now the record books will show that.  Congratulations also to all in the Mustang family.  Way to pull together and lift each other up in such a tough time.  Best of luck the rest of the way!
