MARSHALL COUNTY, OK -- A local high school coach remains in the hospital tonight after a motorcycle wreck in Marshall County.

Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers say the accident happened on Texoma Park Road, just before 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon.

Troopers say 45-year-old Dickey Dewayne Taylor of Kingston was rounding a curve, when he lost control, slamming into a brick mailbox.

Eagle-Med transported Taylor to a Dallas Hospital with internal trauma, and leg injuries.

Dewayne Taylor is the head football coach and head track coach at Marietta High School.

Fellow coaches tell us he's still recovering in a Dallas hospital, with a collapsed lung and broken ribs -- but he is expected to be ok.

In prelimary reports, troopers say speed may have caused the accident, but add there was also an odor of alcohol on the driver.
