Chris Martinez - Number retirement

[Pitchstalker]

Many of you know that last year one of our Seniors at Dutchtown, Chris Martinez, was killed tragically in a car accident the week following graduation.

This Wednesday night, 11/28 (Woodlawn @ Dutchtown) we will retire his uniform number in a short ceremony 15 minutes before game time. The game starts at 6pm. If you knew Chris, please join us on this special night. Come early.

Would love to attend, but wont be able to (obviously). Superb idea. Definitely in keeping with the high standards and high class that I've come to see at Dutchtown. Very important to respect all students as young people, rather than just soccer players. Im sure all of Ascension Parish (and beyond) will join me in praising Head Coach Larry Chambless for arranging this. Chris typified the promising youngster coming out of Dutchtown looking to progress in life. A sad loss earlier this year. RIP Chris.
