Some might not know this guy, but you know one or more of his sons!
ONE LAST RIDE: CENTRAL BASEBALL COACH LEO MCCLURE FINISHING COACHING CAREER AT END OF THE SEASON, BUT HIS IMPACT ON COMMUNITY, SCHOOL IS IMMEASURABLE

During the course of his first season as athletic director/football coach at Central High School, David Simoneaux Jr. sought the advice of people to point him in the right direction to gather support for the program.
Whether it was monetary in nature or simply supplies, Simoneaux routinely found himself turning toward the school’s baseball coach Leo McClure.
That’s because McClure was dyed-in-the-wool maroon and gray, a 1973 graduate of Central High where all three sons – Tanna, Trey and Todd – had graduated and enjoyed standout athletic careers for the Wildcats.
“The McClures are synonymous with athletic excellence at Central,” Simoneaux said. “You could call them one of the royal families.”
