Those who were able to attend Fredonia High School basketball games this year, or any event in the Fredonia High School gym, may have noticed a new scorer’s table. The table was donated by the First Ward Falcons Club, and while featuring technological upgrades, also features a special dedication in honor of Roger Pacos.
“The Falcons Club reached out to us asking if there was any big purchase we were looking for,” said Fredonia Athletic Director Greg Lauer. “We had been looking for a new table for a year or so now, and it ended up being around the time that Roger Pacos died. He was a longtime bowling coach and teacher here, and a member of the First Ward club as well, so it worked out great that they wanted to do it in memory of him, and they donated the full amount. The table is certainly an upgrade over what we were dealing with before.”
