Coach Bill Eutsler - Former Coach at Rockingham High School - Celebrates His 91st Birthday On Saturday, May 9th, 2009, a "gang" of former players coached by Coach Bill Eutsler gathered at Coach's cabin by the lake outside of Cheraw SC on the occasion of his 91st birthday. Coach looked great. It was told that he still does 150 sit-ups every morning (someone MAY be exaggerating - but he had the flatest "belly" there). There were approximately 47 former players in attendance, and Coach was very touched. There were players there from three decades of RHS football & baseball; from 1947 thru the 1960's.
