New Blissfield boys’ soccer coach Tommy Tipton helped Noel Moreno guide the turnaround in the girls’ soccer program last year. Now the 20-year-old Adrian native, who was an all-district and all-county soccer player at Adrian High School, wants to do the same for the boys’ program.
“Working with the girls' program this past spring was a great experience. We had some young talent that just needed some direction. Noel is a great coach, and when he asked me to assist him, I jumped at the opportunity. Seeing the girls' progress just in those few months was fantastic. They had a great work ethic, and were very 'coachable'. I would say it definitely impacted my decision to seek the boys' job in a huge way,” said Tipton, who met some of the boys in the soccer program. “They seemed to have the same positive, dedicated outlook that the girls had. I knew that if I got the job, these guys would be ready and willing to work hard and make huge improvements.”
