Coach Gary Murphy's position as head coach of Marshfield High School's Lady Jay basketball program is at jeopardy. As former players, family, friends, and fans of Coach Murphy, we support him 100% and petition to prevent the unnecessary termination of his illustrious 21-year career as head coach. Coach Murphy's coaching record speaks for itself, but the true victories are in the lives of the multitude of former players who went on to lead successful careers and lives because of his coaching and mentorship. We are forever grateful and indebted to this man's sacrifice and passion to develop young women into athletes and responsible individuals.
On March 19, 2012, the MHS school board will convene to hear arguments for and against Coach Murphy. This virtual petition is for those individuals not able to sign the hard copy petitions being signed in the area. Let's stand together and fight the good fight for the man who gave us his everything so we could become champions. Coach Murphy needs our prayers and support. Carpe Diem!

I have spent the last few days formalizing our presentation materials for the school board session. Counsel is currently reviewing our documented records to ensure every point of our argument is legally sound before the hearing.

The volume of support displayed here has provided the leverage needed to secure a formal meeting with the school board representatives. I am finalizing the summary of your testimonials to present as evidence during our scheduled hearing.

He helped me grow so much as a person. Dont fire him!
Ridiculous to even think about letting him go. The man has done more for that program than anyone else ever will. Total mistake.

Coach Murphy is a legend. 21 years of hard work and dedication should count for something. He taught me so much more than just basketball. Keep him!!
