LOCAL HERO HONOURED

AFTER SUDDEN DEATH

The Texas Tigers yesterday paid tribute to their Little League soccer coach when they unveiled the Evan Ross Player of the Year trophy.

The Tigers are still in mourning after losing Coach Ross to a suspected stroke last month. Ross, 54, who received a Medal of Honor for heroism in combat in Afghanistan in the mid-eighties, had struggled after his best friend and fellow Green Beret, Tony Baranello, suffered a cardiac arrest six weeks ago.

‘When Tony passed, it ripped the life out of Evan,’ said his widow, Nancy. ‘They’d already been through so much with losing Tony’s twin, Mario, in Afghanistan in ’86. Evan never talked about it, but what happened over there, what went wrong, haunted him.

‘Coaching Little League soccer and hiking our country’s great trails with Tony was Evan’s salvation. He’d be proud to have a trophy with his name on it.’
