T EACHER - SLASH -C OACH
Being a gifted teacher and a wrestling coach
is an unusual combination, but I wouldn’t
be the educator I am today without what
I’ve learned as a wrestling coach. I also
wouldn’t be the coach I am today without
what I’ve learned as a teacher. My students
and athletes alike hear so much of the same
phrases and philosophies. I view my role in
the classroom as though I’m coaching my
students, and I view my role on the mats as
though I’m teaching my wrestlers.
Whichever way you look at it, I’m dedicated
to giving my best to all of my kids.
