When AFLAC decided to honor the real heroes of sports in America, they instantly decided to pay tribute to the nation's top high school and college assistant coaches. They're the men and women ! who toil, frequently with little recognition, to make certain their programs are the best that they can be--while having a positive effect on the young athletes in their charge. Nominations arrived from head coaches, other assistants, players, coaches, fans, the media and, in at least several cases, the coaches' own children. The selection process wasn't easy, but here they are: The 500 AFLAC National Assistant Coaches of the Year:
