Bill will always be remembered as the tough coming at you 147-pound red-headed boxer from Grass Valley. During his three years on the varsity boxing team, he delighted the Wildcat boxing fans with his non-stop aggressive style. Bill brought this style to his teaching and coaching and was a favorite with fellow teachers and his students alike. From 1962 until 1978, Bill was a major contributor to the Chico Unified School District physical education and coaching scene.

Art Acker and Willie Simmons helped give him the teaching and coaching skills; Gene Howard, Bush Dalrymple, Rock McClellan, Mel Jones, Rex McDougal, and Skip MacDonald gave him the opportunity and helped him to apply those skills as a teacher.

In 1965 he and Bush Dalrymple helped open Pleasant Valley High School. He considered it the most challenging year of his teaching career as they planned curriculum, gym use, layout of fields, selected teaching and coaching staff, and made a 20-year growth plan.

Bill attributes his success in coaching to good help and great student athletes. Bill was most proud of the fact that, along with Hal Peterson, he helped the growth and popularity of high school wrestling in Northern California.

Bill is now in private business in Red Bluff and very active in the community through service organizations. He was chairman of the Economic Development Prison Siting Committee for Tehama County. He is a member of the Board of Directors of the Tehama Local Development Corporation and the Chamber of Commerce. He served as a member of the Tehama County Planning Commission, is past president of the Chamber of Commerce and currently serves as its chairman of the Local Governmental Services Committee. He has been a member of the Kiwanis service club of Red Bluff for 20 years.

Bill Moule is proud to have been a Wildcat, and the Wildcats are proud to welcome him as an addition to the Hall.
