Illinois Hall of Fame names nine area coaches for 2008
The Illinois Basketball Coaches Association lists nine area coaches as 2008 Hall of Fame inductees to be honored April 26 at Illinois State University. Rod Wallace resigns as Galatia boys coach after nine seasons, citing personal reasons, with Ron Pinkering stepping in as interim and Tim Monroe coaching the girls during the holiday tournament. Wallace leaves Galatia with a 111-103 record after guiding the Bearcats from 1998-99 to a 24-1 season in 2004-05 before a regional final loss.
