The following are excerpts from the nominations for Coach Sitts.
"Coach Sitts has been a positive inspiration to the players. He is a committed father, husband, teacher, coach and friend to many. I admire coach Sitts because he not only teaches on the court, but off the court, as well."
Coach Sitts has been invited to be a guest of the Idaho Stampede on Friday, January 7, to be recognized on-court for his award. Throughout the season, coaches will be invited to be recognized at Idaho Stampede basketball games and Idaho Steelheads hockey games at Qwest Arena.
At Stampede games, the honored coach has the chance to win another $250 if he or she can make a three-point shot.
