Coach Cory by Diana Evan

Cory Stringer is a principal at Pilot Station School. When he was twenty-six years old, he first started coaching.  When everyone was cheering for his team it gave him a sense of pride. He had so many exciting games. In one of them, the boys were down by four and had thirty seconds left. What he did was set up a play; one of his players shot a three, got fouled, and won the game. When he went to state, there were awards like All Star, Most Valuable Player, and academic awards. It was a learning experience for him to go to state because he didn’t realize how far behind his team was until he watch others play. When he was preparing his team, they watched others play and talked about what they need to improve. Coaching in Montana was memorable because he got his name on the trophy for the first time.
