Coach Langston was my P.E. teacher in my HS days. He was a great guy, a motivator and a beacon of light to the youth that he coached. He deserves every bit of respect that he's getting and then some. The man is a local legend.

I am a graduate of Norcom. Class of '98. Go Greyhounds!! No doubt, Coach Langston was a local legend-in a class of his own. It shocked me when I read about what happened in the Virginian Pilot. I was messed up for a minute. Actually, I still can't believe it. He held I C Norcom down! Those were the good ol' dayz. He will b missed. R.I.P. Coach Langston.
