Bio

You were a four-year letterwinner on the men’s golf team and helped the Comets win four straight MIAA championships.

You were a three-time first-team All-MIAA selection (1990, 1991 and 1993). In addition, you posted the league’s best stroke average all three years to earn MIAA medalist honors. An injury prevented you from competing in the required rounds during the 1992 season.

A captain during your senior year, you became the first golfer in school history to earn All-American honors with an eighth-place finish at the 1994 NCAA Division III National Championships. The finish allowed Olivet to place 10th as a team.

After graduating from Olivet, you moved back to your hometown, Escanaba, where you have served as an English teacher at the middle school for the last 16 years. During your time there, you have been an eighth grade basketball coach all 16 years and assistant middle school track coach for four years. You became the boys’ and girls’ varsity golf coach in 2010-11, leading the Eskymo boys’ team to the 2011 MHSAA Division I Upper Peninsula championship.

Olivet honors you and is proud to induct you into the Olivet College Athletic Hall of Fame this 28th day of October, 2011.
