John Patterson, a 1976 T.W, Andrews graduate, has been named the Red Raiders football coach. He is the ninth coach in program history.
Others include Bob Boswell, Herb Goins, David Mizzell, Craig Gill, Derek Anderson, Rodney McKoy, and will need to hit my research button and find the other three for you…Maybe Coach Casazza(John) was another one at TWA, but I don’t remember his first name, but now I do think it was John….
More on John Patterson and more on HPA when I get on my other computer in the morning…

John Patterson, the new head football coach at High Point Andrews….
Boswell, Shook (spelling?), Goins, Gill, Casazza, Metcalf, Mizell, Anderson, McKoy, Patterson.
Yes thank-you for those names and I do think Schuck’s son was a basketball player at Ragsdale, David Schuck and he later played college basketball at Navy and UNCG…
Either Mr. Schuck or Mr. Casazza were AD’s at Ragsdale…
That Metcalf name escaped me…
I believe it was Cazazza who was AD at Ragsdale at one time.
Let me correct myself: Boswell, Morris, Goins, Gill, Casazza, Metcalf, Mizell, Anderson, McKoy, Patterson.
Yes and I think Casazza was the QB for the old Greensboro Redskins semipro football team back in 70’s…Lots of history with those men and was Morris, John Morris from Reidsville???
