Recognition
"In keeping with our US Army Leadership Challenge, coaches can again recognize student-athletes with the following Dog Tags this year.
Presentation of the Dog Tags to the student-athlete should always be made in front of the entire team with an explanation of why the Tag is being presented. Just as the Dog Tags worn in the military represent a soldier's identity, the HFC Dog Tag identifies the best in our student-athletes. Please present them to deserving players on your teams.
If you would like to receive Dog Tags to present to your players, please let me know."
