I was not aware of Coach Moseid's passing until just recently. I am saddened by the news as he was an inspiration to me during my younger, basketball playing days both at Mount Tahoma High School and Tacoma Community College. With his leadership, Coach Moseid, my teammates and myself were instrumental in putting the TCC Titans on the map as far as competitive Junior College basketball programs in the Northwest..
We competed in the Washington State Tournament during the 1967-68 and the 1968-69 seasons! We played for the State Championship in the 1969 State Tournament however barely losing to Grenn River by a close margin.
One of the most simple, but inspirational things that Coach Moseid said to me was the to be AVERAGE meant that you were only the "best of the worst" and the "worst of the best!"
During my coaching career I often times would think about his leadership and inspiration.
