Riverdale honors former coach at track inv ite
By SARAH FORD For Shaw Media
The Riverdale School District honored retired coach and educator Paul Parker for his service in the classroom, in the field of competition, and for the generations of athletes he positively impacted by renaming the Riverdale Track Invite in his honor on Thursday, April 14. The invite has had a handful of names over its 20-year history, but it was finally cemented as Riverdale’s Paul Parker Co-Ed Track Invitational.
Even with the afternoon’s whipping winds, Coach Parker returned to the track that he was instrumental in saving years ago. He was hired by the Riverdale School District on June 6, 1963, and dedicated 49 years to the district until his retirement in 2012. During his decades at the school, he was a math teacher, varsity head football coach, and varsity girls track coach, among other accomplishments.
His lasting influence can be felt all over the high school, Athletic Director Guy Dierikx sais. Many trophies and plaques in the Hall of Fame wing come from his teams, as well as school and state record holders that he coached. Current track coach Ami Henricksen keeps old suitcases passed down from Parker, with all sorts of gear for a rainy day.
In 2003, Parker was inducted into the Riverdale Hall of Fame, mostly because of his selfless generosity in saving the track programs at Riverdale. An excerpt from his induction nomination letter reads:
“[Coach Parker] and a handful of others virtually saved both men’s and women’s track from extinction in the early 1970s when the school system suffered from massive financial crises. Mr. Parker and his associates worked hard to raise funds to provide coaches’ salaries; as well, he dug deep into his own pocket to help provide other amenities for his and other athletes. This money helped provide food, transportation and even uniforms.”
His generosity and service can still be felt today, said Dierikx, who spoke with Parker last week about taking care of nearly 40 tomato plants. While he loves gardening, Parker does this to hand out to his friends and neighbors.
The inaugural Paul Parker Co-Ed Track Invitational hosted competitors from nine schools for 17 scored events. Team points for the women’s varsity were Sherrard 171, Kewanee (Wethersfield) 156, Toulon (Stark County) 73, Kewanee High School 63, Orion 47, Riverdale 45, Sterling-Newman 22 and Morrison 16.
Team points for the men’s varsity were: Riverdale 171, Toulon (Stark County) 114.50, Sterling-Newman 89, C a m b r i d g e 6 8 . 5 0 , K e w a n e e H i g h School 68, Kewanee (Wethersfield) 56, Oneida (ROWVA) 42, Morrison 56 and Orion 24.
