From EAsportstoday

When former Sacred Heart basketball coach Ralph Graves took the head coaching job at Mae Jemison this past summer he saw it as a calling when one door closed locally.

Then life intervened.

Graves, 35, confirmed to East Alabama Sports Today Tuesday night he is retiring from coaching after one season at Mae Jemison, citing time demands on his growing family. He made the original announcement during a ?Chop It Up Barbershop Talk? YouTube podcast taped last week.

Joining Graves in the hour-long podcast were his former Sacred Heart assistants Mook Hutchinson and Brandon Foster.

?It?s true; not coming back to coaching though,? Graves said. ?The price isn?t worth it any more. Time is something I?m not willing to give up any more. Family dynamic has changed tremendously and I have to make some tough decisions for us.?

Graves and his wife recently welcomed the birth of their second child.

In nine seasons at Sacred Heart, Graves built a small-school dynasty, winning more than 200 games. His teams put together six straight Final Four appearances, five straight appearances in Class 1A and 2A state championship games and four straight state titles. They played in six Calhoun County Tournament title games and won two.

But in May the school changed the design of its curriculum and suspended varsity athletics for the immediate future.

Graves? first team at Mae Jemison got off to a slow start this past season, but eventually played (and lost to) area rival and eventual state champion Lee in the Class 5A Northwest Regional championship game.

The Jacksonville basketball team will go into its June offseason play dates with a new coach on the bench.

Cordell Hunt has moved into administration, leaving his spot on the Golden Eagles? bench vacant. Hunt confirmed he has accepted the assistant principal position at Kitty Stone Elementary School.

In terms of a successor, the community has thrown its support towards former Sacred Heart and Mae Jemison head coach Ralph Graves. He is interested and had made application.

Assistant coach Corey Mize, 28, will serve as the team?s interim coach and will take the Golden Eagles through their three play dates ? June 11 at Birmingham Southern, June 15 at Jacksonville State and June 18 at Champions.

East Alabama Sports Today

Schuessler Ware has stepped down as the boys and girls basketball coach at Faith Christian right before the start of offseason camps, citing health reasons.

Ware, 65, jumped back into the game 16 months ago with the Lions ?to make a difference,? coming out of retirement to start the Second Act of his coaching life after a Hall of Fame coaching career at Anniston.

But it was a rough year for the coach. He contacted COVID-19 right before the County Tournament, which forced both of his teams to pull out of the tournament. He is scheduled to undergo shoulder surgery unrelated to the virus next week.

?I have to take care of this medical part first,? Ware said. ?I didn?t want the kids holding out waiting on me.

?I didn?t want to go in there and spend the time being sick. It?s not a good feeling when you?re not at full speed when you want to be. It?s just been a bad year.?

Ware said he decided to step aside Tuesday and texted headmaster Chip Jones. The process of finding his successor is underway.
