I wanted to be sure the news spread around the state. Keith Tuck died from a heart attack less than five months after announcing his retirement from coaching and teaching at Dripping Springs. Keith was a terrific coach and person. As most of you know, his daughter Brittany and her best friend, Jenna Spense, died in separate car accidents about ten years ago. Since that time, he had sponsored a Brittany Tuck Memorial event and Austin Area Softball Allstar game in their honor. Very sad but at least we know he is with his daughter in heaven. I had the privilege of seeing him coach and attend the all star game every year for the past five years. Terrific person who gave so much back to his players.
