| Coaches Terry English and Bob Mickler |
BOB MICKLER SENIOR PLAYER OF THE YEAR AWARD
As the first Head football coach at Randolph High School, Bob Mickler established a program that transcends time and sidelines. After serving his country in WWII, Coach discovered his passion for inspiring young men while working at Boysville. Turning his career toward coaching while in his early 30’s, Bob became mentor, coach and father figure to many Ro-Hawks as their own fathers were serving tours of duty in Viet Nam and elsewhere.
Under Coach Mickler, the Ro-Hawks compiled a record of 217-50-10. The .781 winning percentage ranks Mickler as one of the winningest High School football coaches in Texas history. In his 26 years at Randolph, the football team won 13 District titles and reached the playoffs 17 times, including 10 undefeated regular seasons. An avid golfer, his Boys golf teams won 22 district titles in 26 years. Coach Mickler retired in 1987. Bob Mickler knew that not many of his players would continue in their sport past high school, so he was focused on molding them into men and leaders in life. When news spread of his early death in a car accident, the testimonies of his former players and peers were consistent. Bob Mickler turned boys into men and leaders. Above his love for the game of football was his tenacity toward life, as well as his pursuit of wisdom and use of humor. These qualities endure in all whom he touched.
TERRY ENGLISH LEADERSHIP AWARD
Terry was quarterback at Randolph in 1966 when he was selected as an All-State Texas High School Player. Terry went on to play for Rice University before a long coaching career at the high school level, beginning at Randolph High School.
