Meet Coach T

He’s been where your athlete wants to go.

Terrell Washington played Division 1 football at the University of Illinois, where the Fighting Illini won the 2001 Big Ten Championship and played in the Sugar Bowl, then played defensive end for the Houston Texans. After four years coaching at Ritenour High School, he settled in Wylie in 2014, volunteered as a coach, and founded Grind House Sports in 2018.

His philosophy is simple: he gives 100% to every session and expects the same from his athletes.
