I love GA athletics because of the great tradition that we have in all sports. The opportunity to coach great people, great students and great athletes is as good as it gets. I love implementing our traditions and coaching kids with our core values and watching them succeed. I feel truly blessed and honored to be the head football coach at Germantown Academy.
