In 1924, Sacred Heart began as small mission of St. Joseph Parish in Baton Rouge. The pastor of St. Joseph’s, Monsignor Francis Gassler, had studied the needs of the people of the area and immediately established a catechetical center with Miss Margaret Lee Jolly as the principal and Mrs. Emma Booth as her assistant. Later a chapel/hall combination was built. The philosophy of Sacred Heart School regarding athletics is that every student in the program be given the opportunity to have a positive, growing experience in athletics. The purpose of athletics at Sacred Heart is to help our students to develop lifetime physical and mental skills.
Sacred Heart finished the season 7-4 being lead by Head Coach Jacob Aguillaed. Coach Aguillaed is on year 9 of coaching but has been coaching Sacred Heart for 3 going onto 4 years now. Coach Aguillaed is a players coach. He expressed to me that he enjoys watching his players grow up.
Q & A with Coach Aguillaed
What has been your favorite thing over the last 4 years?
It was coming in and seeing what was here watching the freshman grow into seniors. Being able to see them maturity.
What is your biggest challenge?
The biggest challenge at a small 1A is that you need to have guys that are extremely versatile and putting players where they may not want to be.
What are you doing this off-season to get ready for next season?
Being in the weight room, also working with the multi-sports athletes to get them in the weight room. Also using the Moffat method.
What is your motto?
Players don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care – Nick Saban
