Terry and Betty Malone Legacy

Terry Malone' 52 left a huge mark on the legacy of Hamilton Catholic and Badin High School in so many ways; and his late wife, Betty, has a special scholarship named after her -- so it only makes sense that that they have been named the Hall of Fame Legacy Family for 2008.

Terry Malone is the winningest head football coach in the history of Ohio high school football at 360-177-8, including the 1990 Division III state championship. During his years as head coach from 1958 through 2003, eight Malone teams went undefeated and 16 went to the playoffs. The Rams were state runners-up in 1978 and 1980.

Terry did much more than that - as a history teacher, dean of students, athletic director and interim principal over the years, bigger than life in his impact at Badin. All the while, his wife Betty was the "rock" in the background, taking care of the home front and supporting the Rams in every way possible.

The Malone children and grandchildren have also made, and continue to make, a substantial mark at Badin over the years:

Dave '73 and Cindy Aumentado Malone '73 - Dave coached football at Badin and in Florida, where they now reside.

Bernie '76 and Paul Zimmerman '77 - Bernie is the principal of Queen of Peace School and Paul is a social studies teacher at Badin and former member of the football coaching staff. They live in Hamilton and are the parents of one son who just graduated from Badin.

Therese '78 and Bob Kugler '78 - Therese is an intervention specialist at Badin and Queen of Peace, and Bob owns a local real estate firm. They live in Hanover Township and are the parents of three children, including one at Badin and one who is a Badin grad.

John '79 and Monica Roesch Malone '79 -- They live in West Chester and are the parents of four grown children. John quarterbacked Badin's first state runner-up football team in 1978.

Terry - Passed away in 1973 at the age of 10.

Betty Smith '80 - Mother of one child, lives in Hamilton.

Cathy Malone' 89 - Hamilton resident, junior high English teacher, is currently writing a book about her father's coaching career.

Kelly Malone '92 - Mother of one child, lives in Hamilton.

Andy Malone '96 - Former Badin quarterback, father of one child, lives in Hamilton.

Steve Malone '98 - Lives in Hamilton, helps coach freshman football at Badin.

Terry Malone always talks about all the families whose children just kept bringing him success on the football field and in the classroom, but Terry and Betty Malone and all of the Malone children certainly made a huge impact of their own at Badin. Betty passed away in 1997, but her husband Terry and the extended family continue to keep the Malone legacy alive and well at Badin High.
