I always enjoyed seeing Coach Jung at games. I first met him at @savannahfire back when I was a student at SCAD.
So sorry to hear about the passing of Benedictine assistant football coach Charlie Jung. A standout player for Savannah High, where he graduated in 1966, Jung retired after 37 years with the Savannah Fire Department. He coached at BC for 18 seasons. @TheBC400 @BC_Football1902

A visual journalist is still journalist. Print is no longer the main focus but it’s pretty cool to have 2 bylines on the front page of the Sunday print edition of @SavannahNow
