What made you decide you wanted to become a coach in your present sport?

I loved the game when I played it, and when I finished my career I wanted to continue to be around it, and coaching was a great way to do that. I started coaching one summer when I was home from college and fell in love with it.

Describe one of the best moments you can remember from your coaching career?

2008, when Dave Holland, now at Regis University, hit an eighth inning walk-off home run against Wheat Ridge in the district finals.

What was one of the most heartbreaking moments of your coaching career?

2007, losing in the bottom of the eighth inning against Columbine 2-1 in the district final.

If a young athlete came to you and said he or she was interested in a career as a coach, what advice would you give him/her?

I would play the sport as long as you can and start coaching as soon as you graduate from college. Volunteer if you have to and learn from as many coaches as you can. Don't get caught up in teaching what you were taught.

What do you do for fun that isn’t related to the sport you presently coach?

I like to travel to different countries.

If you could coach for any professional sports team for one year, which would it be and what changes would you make?

The Colorado Rockies, and I don't think I would change much this year

Your present team just won the state championship. What do you (and/or the team) do to celebrate the achievement?

BBQ at my place.

Walt Disney pictures decides to make a motion picture about your team and its achievements. What celebrity actor/actress would play you in the movie?

Kevin Costner. He is good in baseball movies.
