Bio

At Charlotte High School you distinguished yourself in football, wrestling and baseball. In your freshman year you played football but wrestling was to be your sport of distinction. You were a member of the Olivet College Wrestling Team for all four years, lettering each of those years. Each of those years your team won the MIAA Conference Championship. You were Conference Champion in both 1978 and 1979 and qualified for the NCAA Nationals two years. Your athletic talent was recognized with the Team Contribution Award in 1978, Team Most Valuable Player in 1979, and being named ALL-MIAA in both 1978 and 1979. Your teammates recognized your leadership by naming you team captain twice.

You were active on campus as a member of the Phi Alpha Pi Fraternity. You worked your way through school as a student employee in the College Maintenance Department. In 1979 you were awarded a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in business administration.

Your degree would serve you well in your chosen career of financial management and accounting. Currently you are working as controller of Fasco DC Motors in Eaton Rapids. Family is also important to you. Together with your wife Sheila you are raising four boys Brian, Jason, Jarred and Bill. Many young athletes have benefited from your expertise as a coach in little league baseball and football.

Because of your outstanding abilities as an athlete and businessperson it is with great pride that this 16th day of September 2000 we induct you into the Olivet College Athletic Hall of Fame.
