I was sitting around this week talking to some buddies about who is your top 5 high school coaches all-time in the Cincinnati area. Obviously, there are several large school coaches who have been well established. Are there any smaller schools D4 and below that would make the list.

1. Gerry Faust - Cincinnati Moeller
2. Terry Malone - Hamilton Badin
3. Steve Rasso - St. Xavier
4. Pat Mancuso - Princeton
5. Steve Specht - St. Xavier
6. Steve Klonne - Cincinnati Moeller
7. Steve Ramsey - Cincinnati Elder
8. Kerry Coombs - Colerain

Faust and Malone are tops.
I guess Lutz (Ironton) is not Cincinnati area...

The longevity of some of these coaches is what is so impressive. I know several are from several decades ago , but Malone and Klonne have coached over 40 years.

Herb Woeste - Purcell Marian The 1986 state championship has to be considered one of the tops in the state in that era.
