Mr. Schofield, 7th Grade Coach. Mr. Schofield graduated from one of the bigger high schools in Wisconsin and played basketball, baseball, and football in grades 9-12. His teams were very solid, but always ran into a team with a D1 center that ended up playing for the Badgers.

There are a lot of things that you cannot control, but those two things can have a profound impact. Mr. Schofield has been coaching football, basketball, and baseball for a combined 16 years. One thing that coaching has taught him is that you have to live what you teach.
