Coach Bill Carrico and Coach C.H. Collins are remembered by generations of Denton Broncos as two of the individuals who were most instrumental in leading the successful integration of Denton High School in 1968. They set an example for the community in building a friendship that strengthened to brotherhood as they led Denton High School’s most successful football team in 43 years, which won the bi-district championship in 1972. After football, they became successful and beloved school administrators until their retirements: Coach Carrico as Denton ISD Athletic Director and Coach Collins as Denton High School Dean of Men. Separately, they are memorialized by the beautiful Denton ISD athletic facilities that bear their names.
The Denton High School Family Assistance Foundation (“Denton High Cares”) is proud to announce that beginning this year, the Foundation’s annual golf tournament will proudly honor the memories of these great men, together, just as they were so often linked in life.
On April 20, 2018, Denton High Cares will present the inaugural Carrico/Collins Memorial Golf Classic at the beautiful Golf Club at Champions Circle in Fort Worth, Texas. Sign-in and lunch will begin at 11:30 a.m., with a shotgun start at 1:00 p.m. After the golf, we will have a great time at a reception and awards ceremony, with music, fellowship, and fun, and as always, we will offer fantastic auction and raffle prizes as well as amazing prizes for the winning golfers.
