Ocean Lakes football head coach Joe Jones was recognized by the NFL’s Washington Redskins as high school coach of the week.

“From what I understand, there is supposed to be a two thousand dollar donation for football,” said Jones, who intends to spend the donation on new uniforms for the team.

He was also invited to attend a Redskins home game in week 16 of the regular season when they faced off against the Giants at FedEx Field.  According to Jones, he will receive tickets for the honor.

“One for me and a guest; my wife is going with me,” said Jones.

The Redskins recognized the area’s best high school coaches prior to the game.
