Family of former Wheeler High coach to attend turf ribbon cutting

The widow and son of former Wheeler High School football coach Corky Kell will attend a ribbon cutting Friday for the new turf field at the school's stadium.

The Wheeler high stadium was named after Kell, who went on to become the county schools athletic director. Carole Kell and their son, Superior Court Judge Tain Kell, will attend the 7:15 p.m. ribbon cutting, with Superintendent Michael Hinojosa and several school board members.

The event precedes a 7:30 p.m. football game between the varsity squads of Wheeler and Pope High.
