Longtime Eagle Pass HC Tom Gonzalez Announces Retirement

Long-time Eagle Pass head coach Tom Gonzalez announced his retirement on Thursday after spending the last 18 seasons leading the Eagles, compiling a 111-81 overall record with three district championships in 2017, 2020 and 2022.

“After careful consideration, I have decided to retire from my position as the Head Football Coach at Eagle Pass High School,” Gonzalez said in the post. “Football has been great to my family and myself. It has been an incredible journey filled with unforgettable moments, challenges and victories that will last a lifetime. Building relationships as I help kids grow personally and achieve goals athletically is what I will miss the most. Coaching isn’t about winning and losing. At the high school level, coaching is about molding teenagers into men and becoming positive, productive members of society and for this, I would like to thank the parents for allowing us to do so year in and year out.”
