Area athlete Charlie Klein still framed in TJ gym photo
A TJ gym wall photo of Charlie Klein keeps sparking memories as area fans recall his high school days at Thomas Johnson High School. Former coaches and teammates describe Klein as popular, humorous, and integral to TJ’s undefeated football teams of 1970 and 1971, a state wrestling champion, and a standout all around athlete who later chose landscape architecture over college sports. His wrestling record stood at 72-7-1 with a flawless senior year.
