We are celebrating Steve Conlon as he recently received recognition for being selected to the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame, Class of 2022! The ceremony took place on Saturday, April 30.
Mattoon Middle School Athletic Director Jamie Sharp has known Steve for going on 22 years. "He's the G.O.A.T. when it comes to MMS coaches," said Sharp.
"Steve has never been about the scoreboard", said Sharp. "Believe me, he comes to compete and wants to win, but his focus has always been on developing the person and the athlete, helping them be a good person in whatever they do in life, and helping them perform at their best on the field or on the court. It's been great to see Steve coach over the years. This is a well-deserved recognition!", said Jamie.
