Leroy Phillips

Leroy Phillips - 1958

Leroy Graduated from Coventry High School in 1958. He spent over twenty-seven years coaching boys and girls in Coventry. He was also an employee of the Coventry Local School District for almost thirty years. There may not be another person who has touched the lives of so many Coventry athletes. Leroy was well-respected and loved by everyone. Leroy passed away and his absence is still felt at all Comet contests at all levels. Leroy is one of the most recognizable Comet fans in memory. He loved the Comets and probably bled “Blue and Gold.”
