Coach Barbay was a Texas High School Coaching Legend....I think his real lasting monument is the one that he built in the life's of all the kids that he coached and Influenced in his time in Newton.

This was something Coach Barbay would have never let happen while he was alive. He did not want accolades and monuments to himself, only to those kids he coached. A very deserved recognition. He was the 4th winningest coach in Texas High School history, and all those wins came at Newton. It is an outstanding monument with different pictures of Curtis on three sides with quotes you could always hear him say. If he was still alive though, I think he would have wanted the money to go to the track with. He loved the horses also. :) The monument is located on Barbay Way at Singletary Stadium at the main entrance to Barbay Field next to the State Championships Markers. Everyone should check it out. Pretty cool.
