New American flag hangs in memory of Malvern's Randy Casper
A new American flag hangs in the Malvern High School gym in memory of longtime coach Randy Casper.
Casper passed away on February 14 at the age of 61.
He was a 1978 Malvern graduate and a key member of the 1977-78 sectional champion basketball team.
Casper was Malvern's head girls basketball coach on two separate occasions, covering nine seasons. He was a girls basketball assistant coach for 12 other seasons, under Doug Wackerly and recently under Jason Powers.
Casper also helped in the boys program years ago as a junior high coach along with his good friend, the late Sam Simmons.
