Seaford soccer coach Tim Lee records 200th win with victory over Laurel
By Lynn Schofer Seaford High School varsity boys’ soccer coach Tim Lee began his coaching career in 1989 at Indian River as an assistant and joined Seaford in 1990 as the volunteer assistant coach. After one year he took over the varsity program for the 1991-1992 school year. Twenty years later Coach Lee notched his 200th win on Tuesday when Seaford defeated Laurel, 9-0. Coach Lee said some of his memorable times include the 2009 conference champions, “We tied one time for the conference but last year was the first time we won outright.” Lee also said his first team brings back fond memories and the early years with many of the players. “Every year there is something special about every group,” Lee said, “Last year was the group I was closest to because I had them since they were eight years old but I really enjoy the alumni game every year.” Tim Lee is also proud that some of his players have gone on to college and had some success at the next level. “I look forward to seeing the success of players such as Kyle Shedaker, Brook Riggleman, and Trevor Lee.” Coach Lee said he coached almost everyone’s children the first 13 years and also coached his own two children the last seven years which will come to end this year when his son Ethan graduates. Reflecting back Coach Lee said, “When I first came to Seaford, it was football country and we had to fight and scrap for everything we got.” Coach said the program has come a long way from 1991 but believes there are still some battles to go for the program, “We have built a strong reputation and legacy in Delaware and when the boys leave the program I believe they have learned sportsmanship and character,” said Lee. “I hope they have a little story that is their own to walk away with as they move on.”
