SPORTS FEATURE | The true measure of a coach is never defined by the championships attained, nor by the number of times history is etched—because greatness is never engraved on trophies alone.
And time will eventually silence every whistle and close every chapter of a tournament. Yet, the woven tapestry of lessons that were planted will continue to flourish through every player who chooses courage over surrender, humility over pride, and purpose over personal glory.
This is how the late Eddie "Bange" Evangelista, former head coach of the Bulacan State University (BulSU) Gold Gears volleyball team, is remembered—not merely as a mentor who produced champions, but as a father who devoted his life to raising them. | via Jannes Magayon, PACESETTER
