Lydell Wilson Heather Patterson Coach Alicia Dutch GRHS Football George Ranch Baseball GRHS ABC I’ve known Lydell since our college days and a great person and a helluva football coach. With our new realignment, hoping to see Lydell Wilson across the field as the new head football coach at GRHS.

Bitter sweet moment with my seniors. This was their last practice as Longhorns but we had a blast. I will miss these guys but I know that they will be successful in their future goals. #WeAreGR

Game #1 is a W thanks to our good luck charms, GR SportsMed!! 🏖️ 🤠 💕 #WeAreGR @GeorgeRanchSB

Longhorns putting in work on the track and looks like the weight room too. Multi-sport athletes. The best off-season is a in-season. Football and track go hand in hand Heather Patterson Coach Alicia Dutch GRHS Football GRHS ABC GRHS Football

Shout out to George Ranch Football and its offensive coaches and players. Great Job.. GRHS Football Coach Alicia Dutch GRHS ABC

Just reflecting on some things from the past. Here is part 1 of my article Six seasons to a Championship that won article of the year for the Texas High School Coaches Association magazine….These are the things I did to build the Lamar Consolidated High School Football program

Part 2 of my article….it’s always great to be able to build something special. But to do it in your community and the school you graduated from….

Wilson served on the THSCA Board of Directors from 2016 until 2019, was a two-time Houston Texan Coach of the Year and was named Texas High School Sports Writers Coach of the Year in 2007.

"To all the coaches and players who worked and played for me, you got my number and I appreciate all you did for me and my family. I'm going to leave you with this, I had my chance to tell my HIStory, thanks to everyone who took part in this chapter. On to the next one..."

Not only was Wilson the first African American coach at three schools, he was the first African American coach in the history of each of the respective districts. Truly a legacy of greatness after 33 years in coaching and education. Wishing a happy retirement to Lydell Wilson!
