Jim Belden

We tweeted out this article yesterday, but I wanted to make a post on here so it will show up on the blog and Facebook as well. I had the good fortune of meeting and learning from Jim Belden when he volunteered his time helping out at Westfield during his son's tenure as head coach. From personal experience, I can say that the sentiments expressed in the article are absolutely true. He was a great man and a Hall of Fame coach who dedicated his life to making Hamilton County a better place.

It has been said that a coach will impact more young people in a year than the average person does in a lifetime. Jim's impact, then, cannot be measured in years, but in lifetimes. His leadership and vision will most certainly be missed.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Belden family, along with a deep sense of gratitude for all of their contributions to our football family.
