most knew Mr. Bullock as a teacher or asst. principle. however, in 1968/1969, there was a small group of us that knew him as "Coach Bullock". he was the coach of the middle distance and distance runners for the varsity track team. we worked hard, but the results for us were good. he was a very good coach.

RIP Coach Bullock.
