PLYMOUTH — If a coach’s legacy is measured as much by the number of lives he touched as by any records, then Dave Cox’s could be seen Sunday.
The former Plymouth High School girls basketball coach celebrated his recent retirement in an open house at PHS, and past players and their families as well as Plymouth staff turned out in abundance to celebrate his 20-year career at the helm of the Lady Pilgrims.
“I thank Dave for all the things that he’s helped me with over the years,” said PHS girls assistant basketball coach Dave Duncan at the open house.
