Aaron Feis, the Marjory Stoneman Douglas assistant coach and security monitor who died a hero during the school’s 2018 mass shooting, has been posthumously nominated for perhaps the most prestigious awards in high school coaching.
Feis is the Dolphins’ nominee for the Don Shula NFL High School Coach of the Year Award, given annually to man or woman who best exhibits character, integrity, leadership, dedication to the community, commitment to player health and safety and on-field success, according to the NFL.
“We are honored to celebrate the 32 Don Shula NFL High School Coach of the Year nominees, as each embodies the integrity, commitment and character of Coach Shula,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said.
