I was introduced to soccer as a student at Xavier High School. To that point in my life, I had been a basketball, baseball, and track/field athlete. Coach Sipples was our soccer coach during our sophomore, junior, and senior years.
After graduating from XHS in 1967, I enrolled at Wesleyan and played varsity soccer there for three academic years. Our team was very successful, and I enjoyed soccer immensely.
Thank you, Coach Sipples, for teaching me the basic skills and etiquette of soccer. You made me a better person in the process and a more skilled player as well. Rest in peace..........
