Coach Little began his basketball coaching career at South Wasco Union High School in the Winter of 1984. He soon transferred to Dufur High School. During Coach Little’s stoic 40 year basketball career he has amassed nearly 400 wins. More importantly he has touched the lives of countless student athletes. To commemorate Coach Little’s basketball career the senior basketball players celebrated his dedication to the sport last Friday night before their game. They also recognized Nancy Little for her sacrifice in giving up 32 years of long lonely nights throughout Coach Little’s 40 years of coaching three sports all year round. Thank you again Mr. Little and Mrs. Little for your commitment and service to Dufur High School and Ranger Athletics.
