His Kiski Cavaliers rolled to a streak of 68 consecutive dual meet wins in the late 90's. Chuck was sectional coach of the year for 10 consecutive seasons, and was the WPIAL Coach of the Year in 1997. 2003 was a great year, as Chuck was named PIAA State Coach of the Year, was elected to the SW Region WPIAL Hall of Fame, and also inducted into the PWCA Hall of Fame.
