Joseph Roach

Coach Roach was hands down the best coach I ever played for and I am truly sorry to hear about his passing. Although I did not know him long , he gave me the opportunity to play for him as a sophomore in high school that ended with a disappointing loss in the dome but taught me more about playing soccer and managing life then I realized at the time. He was a part of some of my greatest memories from my youth. I think as a teacher or coach, the greatest accomplishment one can make is making a difference in a persons life and Joe Roach made a big impact on me and who I am today.

God bless his family and friends as they deal with his loss and I hope they find peace knowing that he was a very good person!
