    " I want to take this opportunity to congratulate coach Grijalva for an outstanding job. His dedication to the program is remarkable. Time, effort, planning, parenting, counseling, managing,time away from home, time away from family, personal time, school, work, camps, seminars, and dealing with about 20 personalities and issues is what a coach goes through. You have handled it all well. Thank you. "
