        The Washington Hatchets beat Bloomfield in last night’s high school basketball matchup but not before Washington’s Hall of Fame Coach received accolades for coaching 1000 games.

        Coach Gene Miiller has been with Washington since 2005,  prior to that he coached at Lafayette Jeff, Kankakee Valley and at Vincennes Lincoln.  In all that time the humble coach has compiled a 680-319 record….

        Miiller’s record puts him 3rd among active coaches and 10th on the all time list.   He said prior to last night’s game as long as he enjoys what he does he does not plan to quit.

        You can hear the ceremony honoring Miiller that took before the game when you listen to the game broadcast on the sports page.  

Also on Focus on the Community, program host Grant Swartzentruber visited with the coach on this week’s program.
