The 1988-89 AP Hockey Team
The young math teacher was also assigned to coach JV basketball and was head coach by the age of 24. With no gymnasium, he led the Cougar five to a record of 156-63 over ten years. Later Academic Dean and Assistant Headmaster, Enright also coached girl’s basketball when Austin Prep went co-ed, and later golf. Thrilled to be introduced by his former player and current Austin Trustee Kate McHugh ’99, who went on to enjoy a great basketball career at Harvard, Enright said he felt blessed by being part of the Austin Prep family. “I was fortunate,” he said, “to look forward to every day of my time at the school. Every day was an honor.”
