... Coach Stiverson was/is one of the best coaches in Ohio ... he has left his mark as the head man at LE and on high school hoops Below the Lancaster-Dixon Line ... It's been a pleasure to watch how basketball SHOULD be played ... I could always count on outstanding Defense - motion offense - fundamentals ... so many outstanding players Coach Stiverson coached/taught/mentored in his tenure at Logan Elm ... I wish him nothing but the best - thanks Coach Stiverson ...

Great coach. People don't understand how much energy it takes to run a program correctly.

Bozo, you said it best - Coach Stiverson/Coach Holbert/Coach Dropsey created/ran an outstanding "program" ... success is the benchmark of any program ... LE had it - success - Coach Stiverson's "program" is one that I personally use as a barometer to compare ALL programs in SE Ohio ...

Man…,what a great basketball career. Tremendous Coach and ran an outstanding program. When I was a young kid watching some kid to late 80’s basketball I remember him coming to Jackson while playing at Logan and just taking it to us.

Best wishes on his post basketball coaching

Has to sting a little to have your assistant coach mentioned every time someone talks about your program. Probably makes him wonder if people give him enough credit. Might be why he decided to step down. When people talk about Maddox, Norm, Howdy, Combs and their teams they never mention the assistant coach. But every time they talk about LE the assistant is mentioned. Will Holbert take over?

And Coach Stiverson sings the praises of Coach Holbert more than anyone on here. They played together at Capital, live next to each other and are best friends. Both are amazing people and, speaking as a Logan Elm alum, we are prouder of the way they coach and the young men they develop than we are of the success we've had on the court, and Coach Stiverson's record speaks for itself.

Bingo. If Calvin would have just read your article that I posted, they would understand that Stiverson valued his outstanding assistants.

Hey it’s great that the HC values his assistant coaches and credits them for part of the success of the team. Most of them do. But it’s odd that everyone else mentions them every time they talk about the team/program. As I pointed out, that’s not the case when discussing other great coaches and their programs. I noticed none of you have disputed that.

Congrats coach on your retirement, quite a career. A lot of playoff battles with us throughout the years, I'll never forget that 2010 district final.

Pfloyd mentions the assistant coaches every time he talks about Warren Local.

Doubt any head coaches worth a darn care that their assistants get mentioned after they do.

The only assistant coach’s name I know for any team is Logan Elm’s. And that’s because his name is mentioned every time the team is mentioned. Who’s Howdy’s assistant? Anyone?

The way I hear it, Holbert already runs that show.

Based on the fact that his name is mentioned every time the team is I’d say you are probably right about that. So as long as he doesn’t retire they shouldn’t miss a beat.
