Carroll's Racine needs one more win for 500

Bishop Carroll girls basketball coach Don Racine should get his 500th high school coaching victory next week, ironically during a tournament hosted by arch-rival Kapaun Mt. Carmel.

Racine got his 499th win on Tuesday against Goddard, and his 10-0 Golden Eagles will play 2-7 Maize in the opening round of the KMC Invitational at 3 p.m. Thursday.


Whenever Racine gets the win, Carroll athletic director Larry Dostert plans to get the game ball, which Carroll will present to Racine after Carroll's home game against Wichita North on Feb. 17, "Don Racine Night." Former players have been invited to return for a post-game reception.


Racine, in his 30th season at Carroll, is 499-161.








On Tuesday February, 17 Bishop Carroll will proclaim the basketball game against East High School as “DON RACINE NIGHT”. Bishop Carroll will honor Coach Racine after the game by presenting him the game ball from his 500th victory. Bishop Carroll has invited back all his former players and parents for the game. A reception will follow the game in the school Library. Congratulation to Coach Don Racine and his 500th victory and good luck on the next 500.
