Coach Tedd was a class guy off the court. Yes, we took our share of beatings from vasj during the moran-tedd era. Which is why we wanted to beat them that much more during my time at Heights.
I found out years later how much respect he had for our program but never said it. That made me like him more. I always had respect for vasj and what they do for the kids.
He always had time to say hello.
May God bless the family at this time

I had the pleasure of being coached by Mr.Kwasniak, and then a chance to coach his sons. Thank you for teaching me what was important as a coach. He had the greatest line ever after a loss which I still use to this day.... If this is the worst thing that happens to you, your gonna have a great life. Thanks Mr. Kwasniak

Dear Kwasniak family - So sorry to hear about Ted´s passing. Ted was a year ahead of me at Christ The King and we played together on the basketball team there. My brother Charles coached us in the mid 50´s, and Ted´s father helped. I followed and admired his coaching career over the years. May he rest in peace. Bob Sidman
