Message: [QUOTE="triaddukefan, post: 3685325, member: 378"] A few days late in posting... but sad news on the small college level here in the Triad. The winningest coach in Greensboro College History lost his 2 year battle with Pancreatic Cancer. R.I.P. Coach :( [MEDIA=twitter]1304161831418654720[/MEDIA] From the GC website: Indeed, while making his mark on the court, Tuggle also made a huge impact on the entire Greensboro College and USA South community. Following his diagnosis, Tuggle made it a point to bring awareness to pancreatic cancer and openly shared his story and positive outlook with everyone he came in contact with, even calling his battle rewarding in interviews with multiple media outlets. During the 2019-2020 season, the USA South Athletic Conference launched a "Tuggle Strong" initiative to help share his story. Over the course of the campaign, each USA South Athletic Conference institution and women's basketball teams designated one home game to raise awareness about pancreatic cancer, while also raising thousands of dollars in Tuggle's honor for cancer research.
