"They call me 'coach Biggio,' " said Biggio, whose oldest son Conor is a freshman baseball and football player for the Eagles. "I really am enjoying it. I know I did the right thing in retiring when I did. It's a great feeling."

Biggio, 42, has been a fixture on the practice fields at the private Catholic school on Memorial Drive since October, shortly after his 20-year career with the Astros came to an end.

"This is a huge deal for us," head baseball coach Ken Schulte said. "We thought we were getting a great kid, and in reality we wound up getting a heck of a coach, too."

Very cool to see retirement is sitting well with him
