My favorite memory of Coach Rhodes would have to be when we were in Freshman track right before my knee injury. We were dieing at the track like always because of the unbelievable workout we had to do during that season. I felt like giving up and began showing because I began falling behind all of the other girls. I just want to stop and vomit! Well here comes old Coach Rhodes when I thought nothing could boost my confidence. He said "Cano, as fast as you are you should be at the front." I told him, "But Coach, I'm a short distance runner not a long distance runner!" Ol' Coach replied "Girrr you acting just like lazy ol' Anthony Flemons. Now get your tail to running." And boy did I get to running, because there was no way in the world I wanted sweet Coach Rhodes disappointed in me!
Thank you Coach Rhodes for your support!
