Our Grand Marshal
Praise for Mr. Long:
"Brad was here when I was a player back in the 90's and while I am here now as a coach. He hasn't changed a bit. He is still caring, compassionate and dedicated to what he does for the Austin Boys Basketball program." -Brian Davis
"Brad Long is a true servant for Austin High School. He is a perfect example of Austin Pride and doing things the Austin Way." -Jake Miles
"Brad is more than just a friend of AHS, he is the heart of AHS!" -Phil Hastings
"Brad Long is the model of a team player and is an Austin treasure. He is one the most loyal and committed men I have ever known. His faithful service to every Austin basketball coach and his wealth of knowledge of the history of Austin basketball makes him a legend. There is not anyone who has seen and been a valuable part of so many basketball games as Brad. Brad is a great friend to me, but more important is his positive influence and friendship to so many Austin basketball players for such a long time. Brad can be described as a perfect example of an Austin Man and he has all the qualities that makes Austin Austin. I cannot think of anyone more deserving of this honor than Brad. I wish him many more years of happiness and service to Austin." -Chip Miller
