Lunareth is the name chosen by Vincent Klock in the World of Warcraft. He plays the Night Elf Druid on the Alliance side of the War. Before he found the World of Warcraft he spent most of his time working and coaching the youth of Mountain View, California.

Vincent Klock, raised in a military family living in places like Hawaii, Japan, and the Philippines among many States within the USA before his father (James D. Klock) retired in 1971 in Mountain View, CA. Once in Mountain View, Vince was registered at Awalt High School (now Mountain View HS) were he was a member of the 1974 class.

After High School, Vince joined the US Navy and did his years of service. Vince was assigned to the US Navy Base Lemoore Boxing Team. Vince fought in various prisons, and schools representing the US Military. Vince left the Boxing game and the US Navy undefeated with a record of 14-0.

Coming home found him looking for employment and re-unite with friends and family.

Some of the other things that should be noted. One night in 1982 he was finsihing up his duties as the disc jockey at a local bowling alley. As he approached his own car he could hear a faint call of "rape". Without hesitation he ran towards the voice. It was the female bartender from the bowling alley. What was there? A mexican young man, eyes as wide as they could be. His right arm wrapped around her throat and his left weilding a pocket knife. The drivers door on her car was open and he was trying to get her in the car. I got there just in time and made a few attempts to free her from his grasp. I was finally able to distract him long enough to finally lunge in and grab her away from him. He then jumped in and took off like he was in a hurry. I placed her in my car and tried to see if I could follow her car to give the police a location. When it was clear there was no way of catching or spotting him, I turned around and we headed back to call the police.

They showed up in force. They were able to find the guy within minutes, and the girl was shaken but otherwise okay. What did I get for my effort? How about a young policeman telling me I shouldn't have gotten involved because I jeopardized "our" lives. I didn't know if I should laugh or punch him. My response wasn't called for but needed saying. I looked him square in the eyes and said "I hope that if your wife or girlfriend gets in a situation like this, that I remember to stay out because I wouldn't want to jeopardize anything." I seriously lost respect fot him, and the department that night. I did however get a phone call from the 'City Office' apologizing for the words spoken to me. What a crock eh?

Another adventure was at Great America. It was a 4th of July and lot's of people. Paul Revere and the Riaders were getting ready to play for the masses. BTW, they are still pretty good. Anyways as I was walking towrds a vendor I saw 2 guys jump from a bush, grab a young lady and drag her into the bushes. I called for a friend to come running. Paul caught up to where we were, and I told him what I saw. We both jumped in behind this wall of bush and saw them "wrestling" with her. Paul and I were able to get these guys off her, and amazingly she was under control enough to get the heck out of there. As we were fighting a small band of security guards showed up and just started swinging at us. Yes, US. Eventually things got a little calmer, probably because the real police showed up. They handcuffed us all and divided us up to tell our story. After a hour and a half, the police came to us and removed the handcuff's. They had the whole story from the gal and witnesses. They let us go free without a word of thanks from them or the security guards. Needless to say, the lady was quite happy we got involved. Yes, we did miss the concert after all was said and done.

In 1980, Vince went to the local Little League Baseball field to watch a few games. Before the first pitch, one of the Managers of one of the teams approached the stands looking for someone to umpire the game. Vince stood and said he would do it for them. That's how the coaching career started. After the game, that same Manager, John Wiseman approached Vince and asked if he would be interested in coaching. Vince signed on with him to coach the team. After a few practices and a game or two Mr Wiseman handed the team equipment bag to Vince stating "Well, the team is yours" Needless to say Vince was stunned and asked "What are you doing?" Mt. Wiseman it seems had accepted employment in Hawaii and basically was testing Vince's ability to lead a team. Now the team was Vince's. That's the first year of his coaching.

For the next 10 years he spent his time with the kids, and secondary to his goals, Vince managed some of the strongest Little League teams in Mountain View to date.

In 1991 Vince respnded to an ad looking for football coaches. While Vince had not played any organized football outside of his one year playing youth football, he had plenty of experience with the game. He quickly rose to the position of Defensive Coordinator and saw his teams reach the play-off's each of the next 4 years he wqould coach in Palo Alto.

In 1995 Vince joined the Mountain View Pop Warner Organization, ironically with the team that had defeated his team the previous year in a hotly contested game. I guess it's true. If you can't beat them, join them.

He joined up with Hugh Burton, one time Oakland Raider as his Defensive Coordinator. Hugh and Vince got the team to the playoff's each of the years they spent together in the Junior Midget Division. Vince then took over the Head Coaching duties from John Cotton in the Junior Pee Wee Division. At the time there were two JR Pee Wee teams. Red and Gold, with the Gold team being the one with the better athletes and the 'red' team basically being those not picked by the 'gold' team. In his first year of coaching a team that came off a 1-7 season the year before was entertaining. They finished the season with a 6-2 record, and bound for the playoffs. This came as a HUGE surprise considering the League had pretty much writen the team off each year.

The next year was fun. Now, the parents seem to be on to the scheme of things and all of them requesat their sons play for me. Oh, what a mess trying to explain why their children could not be on the team. Trust me, you give me 80 kids and I will give you the Pop Warner Chamionship. It doesn't work that way though. Luck of the draw as they say. His records as a Head Coach went like 6-2,5-3,1-7,4-4 before giving up the team because of personal reasons.

Vincent Klock retired from coaching in 2004 after trying a comeback with Coach Burton in the Junior Pee Wee Division. Seems the 2 years Vince spent away from coaching proved too long and he had decided that the game had changed to the point he decided his coaching style was in fact out of date.
