It's refreshing to see the spirit of Al's Tootin' Titans alive and well. As I read these posts, and see the pictures, the memories come flooding back. I'll always remember the smell of popcorn in the hallway outside the gym on game day. Good luck with the site.

Good to see that Einstein is trying to uphold a tradition. What are the criteria for being inducted into the Hall of Fame?

To all of you who have signed the guestbook, we invite you to come by (even if you are not playing) the golf tournament this year, May 11th at Montgomery Country Club. The cost for the reception (a non-golfer) is $50 and includes food and drink. The reception should start sometime around 1:30 PM - 2:00 PM, just as the golfers finish. This will be a great way to see AEHS alums......last year we had 84 golfers and 15 non-golfers. Call me with questions, 240-453-0906. See you there!!!! Paul Remson AEHS Class of 1972

I thoroughly enjoyed looking throught the site. I was from the class of 1983 and remember the many years (older brothers and sisters) before I even attended AEHS. Congratulations to all the inductees. There are a few I have personal remembrances from and a special thank you to all of them: Eddie Harris -- unbelievable finishes and a true athlete. Larry Sheridan -- Slightly before my time, but watched him play. Incredible toughness. Bob Boyle -- my coach for much of football and baseball. So many lessons. Thank you for all the time and never giving up on us! John Cannon 1983 2 Perfect Seasons in Football!

Russ Bradshaw lived up the street from us, I think I am the only old family still living around here.......Janet and Steve Owens lived across the street......My brother bruce played in the golf tourney last year! My son Corey Played Football and Lacrosse and IMHO should be here someday! he graduated in 2003 My daughter is a 2005 and my son Garrett graduates this year! MR Monte was there counselor!!

As a member of the Einstein class of â??77â?� itâ??s great to see many friends from my generation (Larry Rosen, Larry & Tim Sheridan, Mike Owens, Mike Mulliken, Billy Andrakakos, Malcolm Wilson, Paul Remson, and the Wright Brother) and former coaches (coaches Boyle & Bradshaw) being honored and enshrined in the EHS HOF. Knowing many HOF members, the selection committee certainly has chosen people with great character as well as past athletic achievement. Thanks to the founders & supporters and congratulations all to the members!

My older brother class of ( 70 's something ) just sent me the story about Mike Owens . It really was fun to read how well he is doing. Mike was in the class of "76 " and I was in the class of "77" and yes he was all that . Not only was he a very good basketball player but more importantly he and his family were a class act. Congradulations Mike .

Hey class of 1984! Just wanted to say hello! See who was out there that wanted to reconnect! LIVE,LAUGH,LOVE!!!!!!

In the '60s, Jack Keller came to a little black community called Kengar, drove up to 4007 Plyers Mill Road, knocked on the door, and asked to speak to Skip Hopkins's father. Mr. Keller stated that Skip should come back and not quit the football team because of the racist statement made by one of your celebrated coaches. Quote from Mr. Keller: "This young man is probably the fastest person on our team and has the best hands I've ever seen. If this wasn't a time of prejudice, he would be a superstar." Mr. Keller encouraged many blacks in the community to play. Let's not be blind to the racism that existed then from some of the other coaches. Mr. Keller will always be respected by the black community. After all this time, it's amazing that James Hopkins and Michael Lynch, two of the first black athletes, have yet to be chosen for your hall of fame. Michael Lynch had a great college career. James Hopkins went on to set records and, if not for a second year of college shoulder injury, probably would have been widely recruited. Hats off to Mr. Jack Keller, one of the greatest coaches and humanitarians ever known, even during the racist '60s. If anyone is interested in knowing some of the other things that Jack Keller did and said to James Hopkins, John Watkins, the McDonald brothers, and other blacks in the community at that time, feel free to email me at skiphopkins65@yahoo.com, and I will be more than willing to provide you with this information. As we know, many of you Hall of Famers relate to Kengar as the forbidden zone. This may be because of parental guidance. Have a great day. PS Who put together and chose the selected few?
