Last year we visited w/Andrews HS head coach Mike Waldmann. He told us the story of the "antiques" he discovered and what they mean to his state meet squad.

His boys' 200 medley relay showed up and showed off at this year's state meet.
Button, I was the young coach at Andrews High School that ordered these jackets. It was my first teaching/coaching job after graduating from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. I coached from 1982-1988. These jackets are at least 40 years old! I noticed them on the swimmers standing on the podium last year at the 4A State Championships. I thought" those are my jackets, can't be."
ReplyDeleteI'm so proud of Mike and what he has done with the program in Andrews. I think it's a great tradition and hope the jackets can keep finding the podium! Beth Barber
