Bio

You came to Olivet College and enjoyed the company of the Phi Alpha Pi fraternity and your teammates on the football team. All three of your sons take after you as they compete on the fields in football and soccer.

You were recruited by Coach Doug Kay and were instrumental in helping the football team win the MIAA Championship in 1974, the first such championship for Olivet since 1914. In 1973, 1974 and 1975 you were named to the First Team of the MIAA and still remain in close contact with the 1974 MIAA Team.

Your hardworking nature benefited you both on and off the field as you worked hard to complete your undergraduate and master’s degrees in business. You are now Vice President of Gregg’s Restaurants, Inc. in Rhode Island and coach community soccer and baseball teams.

It is with great honor and pride that on the 10th day of September, 1993, we formally induct you into the Olivet College Athletic Hall of Fame. Congratulations!
