Willard Stargel honored at Stargel Stadium era ends

Cincinnati Public Schools paid tribute to former Taft High and Walnut Hills coach and teacher Willard Stargel before the final regular-season football game at Stargel Stadium. The stadium will be demolished to make room for FC Cincinnati's Major League Soccer Stadium. A new Stargel Stadium will be built across the street from Taft High School. Stargel was a star athlete at Old Woodward High School at the University of Cincinnati before his distinguised coaching and teaching career in Cincinnati Pubic Schools.
