Episode 36: Ron Dawn

Newport Central Catholic Principal and Head Basketball Coach, Ron Dawn, sits down to talk a little about his playing days at NewCath and Thomas More, but also about his coaching career. Coach Dawn took over the St. Henry program in 1985 and spent four seasons with the Crusaders before taking over at Newport Central Catholic. In his time as a head coach, he’s won over 500 games, boys and girls, won the 9th Region Title three times and four All ‘A’ State Championships. In what will most likely be the final chapter in a long and successful career, Coach Dawn spent some time looking back on some of the special players and memories that helped make it all happen.
