Roy Chernock (Maccabiah 4), the 83 year young man is more popularly known as Coach in his closer circles. He has been a living legend in track and field.
I have received word that the long time supporter, coach and athlete, Coach Roy Chernock, has recently announced his retirement. He's doing great, living well in West Palm Beach, Florida. He loves to reminisce about all his former athletes. It seems he hasn't forgotten anyone in his 40+ year mentoring career. His living room has become a sort of shrine with trophies, newspaper articles and magazine write-ups. He has been the Head Coach for John I Leonard High school, Princeton, CW Post and most recently William and Mary.
Coach Chernock was recently inducted in the CW Post (LIU) University and the William & Mary Hall of Fame:(http://tinyurl.com/3qzs9ud)
He has four (4) gold medals in the sprints from the 1950 Maccabiah Games and has been a Coach for the squad several times (Maccabiah 8,9)
What a great career to be proud of; Thanks Coach for all that you have done and your continual inspiration.
Coach Chernock was now inducted in the CW Post Hall of Fame as well-
