GETTING BETTER WITH AGE

Coach Smith ties Coach Smith in wins.

Raider Head Coach, George Smith, has lead Aquinas Football for 32 seasons. He has split his St. Thomas coaching career into two segments and has totaled 322 wins against 65 losses over that time.

After being named head coach for the 1975 season, he coached 18 seasons (1975-1992) amassing a record of 161-42 with a winning percentage of .793. Smith retired as head coach after a 1992 perfect season and capturing his first state championship.

He returned as head coach of Aquinas in 1995. After only 13 plus seasons and 3 additional state championships during his second term, Coach Smith has once again reached his 161st victory after the Raiders win against Hollywood Hills last Thursday.

With three additional state championships and his winning percentage of .875 during this most recent head coach stint, he has easily outpaced his previous successful totals.
