    Coaches killed in Parkland shooting to receive ESPY awards

    It would be cool if, on accepting the award, Coach Feis' family mentioned how many more lives he could've saved if he had been allowed to have his own firearm with him. (Of course, I'm assuming the student who said Feis had his own firearm was telling the truth.)

    MIAMI -- The ESPYS are breaking tradition for this year's Best Coach Award, awarding it posthumously to three Florida high school coaches who died shielding their students from gunfire.

    ESPN announced Wednesday that family members of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School heroes Aaron Feis, Scott Beigel and Chris Hixon will receive the award during the show on July 18.

    The award has previously gone to coaches strictly for their work on the field.

    In addition to their work as coaches, the men are being honored for "their immeasurable bravery in the face of danger and for their ultimate sacrifice to protect the lives of countless students," said Alison Overholt, vice president and editor in chief of ESPN The Magazine.

    Previous recipients include Los Angeles Lakers coach Phil Jackson and New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick.

    Was he an athletics coach? ESPY awards are for sports.
