Please check out on the Untied States Sports Academy website on the Mobile County Training School Alumni Association Black Oral History interviews and conversations. We have much to be proud on and much to share with the world. I believe our history is extremely important to share with others to know and learn the best of who we are, and what they can become. Check out coaches Horton and Clark as they share their thoughts on the best of Coach Charles T. Rhodes. The Untied States Sports Academy is a great partner in helping us to achieve our mission and vision to the world.
