13-win, 4-10ss record.

He coached his 1936 Corbin basketball team to the state title. In 1951 he direc ted his Louisville Male High School football team to the state championship and

Denes was named Kentucky's "Coach of the Year" for 1951. While at Male, Coach

Denes' track teams won seven state crowns, five in a row.

In 1939 the likable. story-telling Denes came to Western Kemucky as an assis tant coach.

Coach Denes moved to Male in 1940 as an assistant coach. He handled the line ontwo state championship teams before he took over as head coach in 1949 to com pile one of the most brilliant coaching records in the history of ' athletics at the Lou isville school.
