JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Ed White High School named their field after longtime athletic director Johnny Gwynes Jr. Thursday night.
Gwynes was a coach, teacher and athletic director at the Westside high school for 36 years.
Former Ed White principal Jim Clark presented Gywnes with a plaque in a ceremony before the game and a sign was placed on the field where the team enters for play.
Following the ceremony, the Commanders hosted Fletcher in a preseason game.
It was the debut for Kevin Sullivan at Ed White. He spent the last 20 years as head coach at Atlantic Coast and Andrew Jackson.
The Senators ruined the party beating the Commanders 24-0.
