Rugby Achievements:
Started playing Rugby in the winter of '69/'70 with the old Long Beach Rugby
Club (it doesn't exist anymore). On
the
Orange County All Stars, Southern California, from '74 through '80.
One of the six founding
members of the Dead Goat
Rugby Club Touring Side out of Salt Lake City, Utah, in
1972 . . . now called
the Park City Haggis Rugby Club.
One of the seven founding members of the Belmont Shore Rugby Club in the winter
of '73/'74, which
has been in the
Super League
since it's inception, and has won the Super League
Championship several
times over the years . . . Go
Belmont!
When I started playing fullback for Belmont Shore, back in '77, I was coached,
one on one, by JPR
Williams, the great
Welch fullback
. . . had more fun playing fullback than I
ever had playing flyhalf. I
was honored to meet him, and to be
coached by him!
I
was a player coach for years, and then, after getting my knee blown out in the
fall of '89, I became
the 3rd and 4th side
back's coach for Belmont Shore.
Moved to St.
Elmo, IL, in the fall of '94, and found that the Eastern Illinois University
Men's Rugby Club needed a coach.
They accepted me, and I have been their coach ever since. I'm proud to be associated with
the young men I've coached
throughout the years, and the young men I coach now.
