Jeff Boyer

Wed, 28 May 2025 01:43:54 -0000

BYRON – The Byron Tiger head football coach Jeff Boyer has been recently announced as the Illinois High School Association (IHSA) 2023-2024 Coach of the Year.

“Coach Boyer’s ability to inspire and develop our student-athletes, both on and off the field, has been nothing short of extraordinary,” states Byron CUSD athletic director Jeff Milburn. “It’s a testament to his leadership and dedication to both his craft and our community. I couldn’t be prouder of him.”

Boyer, who has led the Tiger football team since 2012, is no stranger to awards. His teams have been represented in the IHSA State Championship Game four times. His Tigers earned runner-up finishes in 2018 & 2019 along with two State Championships in 2021 & 2023. Over that time, he has amassed 121 wins to only 27 losses, and his teams have qualified for the IHSA playoffs ten out of eleven seasons.

When asked about receiving the award, Boyer is quick to credit others. “This award is truly a reflection of the amount of support that both I and our program consistently receive. Without the hard work of our players and coaching staff, the ongoing support from our parents, district staff and community, and the willingness of my family to allow me to invest a great deal of my time in something I truly love, this simply wouldn’t happen.”

Boyer also credits his high school coach, Everett Stine, and retired longtime Rochelle head coach Kevin Crandall, who he worked under prior to coming back to Byron High School, for a great deal of his program’s success. “These guys taught me a lot about what it takes to be a good head coach,” Boyer states. “They represented themselves and their respective programs with nothing but class.”

Boyer has this year’s team poised to have another successful season. The Tigers are currently 6-0 and ranked number one in the State. They will finish up the last three games of their season at Winnebago on October 11, at Dixon on October 18, and at home against rival Stillman Valley on October 25.

“He instills values of teamwork, discipline, and perseverance in our students,” states Byron High School principal Andy Donaldson. “The impact he’s had on our students will last a lifetime. Byron is fortunate to have him leading our program and our students.”

Boyer is a 2000 Byron High School graduate and has been teaching mathematics for the district since 2008. He is married to his wife of 16 years, Rae, and they have three children who attend Byron schools: Hudson, grade 7; Hunter, grade 3, and Charley, grade 2.

Taking Over a Football Program with Roger VanDeZande

FULTON, Mo. (KMIZ)

Fulton High School has found the new leader of its football program.

Roger VanDeZande was named the school's new head football coach on Thursday morning, per a post on Fulton Athletics' social media.

Most recently, he served as the head football coach at Russellville (2020), Fayette (2016-18) and Southern Boone (2009-13), and he finished with a 46-49 combined record with those three programs. Between those coaching stops, he also spent two seasons as an assistant football coach at Harrisburg High School (2014-15).

"I'm excited to be joining Fulton High School as Head Football Coach. We have work to do, and we need to start immediately. I believe in the student-athletes in Fulton, and I am privileged to have this opportunity to work with them.

Embrace Discomfort

Sat, 19 Apr 2025 01:05:55 -0000

The quote I reference in the podcast:

"Suffering has a cleansing effect on the soul, so that the man who has endured, however much against his wishes, emerges bruised, perhaps, but detached. [True] Resignation makes a man free of the preoccupations that harass the man who is forever complaining about his trouble and looking everywhere for a way out. The man who aims at eliminating pain and sadness from his life is doomed to disillusion. Not so the man who aims at meeting these things head-on, coming to terms with them, and refusing to be governed by them. The resigned soul rests on the text from Tobias: Because you were acceptable to God, it was necessary that these trials should prove you. (Tob 12:6)." —Hubert Van Zeller, O.S.B., p.79Night Prayer: https://nightprayer.goodcatholic.com/?utm_campaign=Night%20Prayer%20Daily%20Emails&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8UVFDU5l91SyYI6ebRnvRiRpxy97X-7P2W9EHxcOqJPg7MPKDkLHfiE37RaRk_dQKqCPgBajzuO19BIMbbyk1ufCHLeA&_hsmi=356943782&utm_content=356943782&utm_source=hs_email

Elite Mindset with Gary Chupnik

Fri, 07 Mar 2025 12:25:13 -0000

It was great to have Gary on the podcast! Below is his biography:

Hi. I'm Gary Chupik. I'm a professional mental performance coach, leadership coach, sports nut, strategist, writer, and speaker. But most of all, I'm curious. About everything. I'm also the guy behind Elite Mindset. It's been a life-long ambition to help high-performers get better and be better. That's why I started this company.

It starts with me. I'm my own experiment. I don't suggest people try stuff unless I've done it myself to vet it. It means I've made a lot of mistakes. If I'm not failing, I'm not trying hard enough.

I've always been fascinated with progress and efficiency. Why do things the hard way when there's a better way? I have an insatiable desire to learn and be better than I was yesterday. I'm sure I drive my wife nuts sometimes (well, a lot of the time). My insatiable appetite for learning has inspired me to share what I've learned with motivated people...people like you. Because I search for and see both the simplicity and complexity of how we've been designed as humans, there's a certain level of awe that inspires me to find out more about how we've been made and what it means for us to be fully alive.

My pride and joy are my immediate and extended family. I live in a suburb of Seattle, WA called Bothell. It's a great place to live. I love to smoke meat, watch and play sports, work out, and see the people I work with flourish.

PHILOSOPHY

Since I'm infatuated with learning, I'll go to a lot of different places to learn. I'll learn from performance psychology, the wisdom of philosophers and the best minds in neuroscience and performance psychology. I'll learn from the giants in sports and other disciplines who are the best of the best. And then there's everyday opportunities to learn something new. I'll pass it all on to you so you don't have to waste your time trying to find all the best stuff. I'll simply provide it for you saving you time and money.

Coach Thomas Alward is one of the four cornerstones of Goodrich Athletics as he has been coaching at Goodrich for over 33 years. Not many programs still have a coach who has dedicated so much of his time and energy for so long but Coach Alward does it because he loves the kids. Coach Alward has been coaching for a total of 49 years, with his coaching career started at Flint Central becoming their Head JV coach then at his alma mater Burton Bendle. Coach Alward has not only been dedicated to Goodrich for almost 33 years, but he was a dedicated sales rep for Jostens for 35 years. Coach Alward is married to his high school sweetheart Darlene, they have two children Trevor and Jennifer. In Coach Alwards free time he enjoys watching the Detroit Tigers, golf, and of course spending time with his 6 grandchildren (Collin, Emma, Luke, Delaney, Neely, and Grady). A little something interesting about Coach Alward is he is a graduate of The University of Nebraska where he played on a National Championship team. Coach Alward was also drafted in the National Football League (NFL) to the NY Jets. He later signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Coach Alward was the first player to ever sign a NFL Contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Imagination

Mon, 11 Dec 2023 12:44:52 -0000

Daily Discipline
Today is the most important day of your life.
December 11, 2023
Imagination is powerful. It colors the mind with vivid inventions, curious scenarios, and possibility beyond reality.
Imagination has no limits, no barriers, no inherent constraints. It has endless horsepower without a built-in governor. It entertains the impossible as if it were possible in one moment and the possible as if it were impossible in the next.
So, when imagination fuels your dreams, creativity, and problem-solving, it is an unrivaled asset.
But when imagination fuels your fears, doubts, and insecurities, it is an unrelenting liability.
It seamlessly switches between these two modes. You’ll imagine a crucial conversation going well and resolving a troubling issue, only to wonder what a particular facial expression meant and develop a discreet anxiety about all the negative things it could mean.
Imagination will lift you above the clouds, then drown you in the bottom of the deepest ocean. It is the light and the dark.
Discipline is the muscle that encourages your imagination to lift you into the light and restrains your imagination when it’s drowning you in the dark.
The time is now. Do the work.

Tommy Moffitt

Thu, 12 Oct 2023 12:34:13 -0000

Coach Moffitt is one of the nation’s premier strength and conditioning coaches. The teams he coached were among the most dominant and talented in college sports history.

In a career spanning 34 years, Moffitt has been the recipient of five National Coach of the Year awards. His teams have also been part of:

Three state championships
Five Southeastern Conference championships
Three national championships

For 26 consecutive years, all of Moffitt’s teams—between LSU, Tennessee, and Miami—made it to a bowl game. This is a feat that may never be duplicated.

From 2000 to 2021, Moffitt was a fixture of the LSU campus. He is currently the only strength coach in the U.S. to win three national championships under three different head coaches. At LSU, Moffitt coached some of the most dominant teams in college football. This includes the 2019 national champions, who many consider the greatest college football team of all time. During his tenure, he received five National Coach of the Year awards.

Many interns, graduate assistants, and staff members who worked under Moffitt went on to receive opportunities across the nation. Currently, 64 former staff members work as strength and conditioning coaches at all levels of athletics.

Moffitt began his coaching career at John Curtis Christian School in New Orleans, LA. While at John Curtis, he coached football, wrestling, track & field, and weightlifting. During his six seasons from 1988-1993, the football team compiled an 84-4 record with three state champions to their credit. Moffitt’s weightlifting team became state champs on three occasions. He was also recognized as National High School Coach of the Year. This award came from the Professional Football Strength Coaches Association in 1992.

Moffitt served as the head strength and conditioning coach at Miami University for two years. There, he helped Head Coach Butch Davis rebuild the Hurricane program. While in Miami, Moffitt was named 1998 Big East Strength Coach of the Year. He also served as associate head strength and conditioning coach at University of Tennessee from 1994 through 1997. While at Tennessee, Moffitt was responsible for coaching the football and track & field teams. During his tenure there, both teams competed for, and won, an SEC Championship.

A 1986 graduate of Tennessee Tech, Moffitt gained initial experience as a member of the Tech football team. There, he saw success as a two-year letterman on the offensive line. Moffitt earned his degree in education in 1986. He spent a season coaching in the weight room and helping with the offensive line.

Born in Springfield, Tennessee, Moffitt is married to the former Jill Beron of River Ridge, LA. They have three children: Clay, a former LSU pitcher; Aaron, a former LSU tight end and member of the 2019 national championship football team; and Brady, a senior at Catholic High School.

Greg White

Tue, 22 Nov 2022 12:00:09 -0000

A little bit about Greg White:

I am excited to be in Elkins, working in a great community with this fantastic radio station. I started in radio in 1983, as a high school kid. I have been part-time, and full-time, in radio since that year. I’ve worked in Beckley, Mount Hope, Oak Hill, and Charleston. There’s really nothing in radio I haven’t done. As much as I enjoy playing music, my absolute favorite thing in radio is Play by Play. I’ve been doing High School and College football and basketball play by play since 1990. As part of a team in Charleston, we won the “Best Play by Play Broadcast” award 6 years in a row… and I won the individual “Best Play By Play Announcer” a few years ago. I’ve done high school sports in Beckley, Shady Spring, Charleston, and most recently, Tygarts Valley. For two years, I was the play by play guy for WV State University, and am part of the MetroNews Sports Team for the annual Mountain East Conference Basketball Tournament.

I am also honored to be a Retired Senior Master Sergeant from the US Air Force, with nearly 28 years of service. I served part time for a few years and ended my career an active duty capacity with the WV Air National Guard. I was fortunate to maintain my part-time radio career during my military service, and am proud to have served this state and country.

I have been married to my amazing wife, Diana, since 2019. We are die-hard WVU Mountaineer football and basketball fans, and I’ve been a fan of the New England Patriots since 1975. So you’ll find us watching sports in the fall and winter… and spending our summers out by the firepit.

I’ve lived most of my life in Fayette County, but moved to this area about a year ago… and am loving every minute of it. It’s beautiful here and the people are some of the nicest I’ve ever met. I will be here every weekday morning from 6am until 10am… and will even visit with you on the weekends… playing Elkins Greatest Hits on 94.7 WELK.

Embracing the Struggle with Justin Bowers

Fri, 18 Nov 2022 20:33:15 -0000

BUCKHANNON, West Virginia – West Virginia Wesleyan College’s new director of career services and experiential learning discovered his own passion in helping students navigate their next steps.

Dr. Justin Bowers recently came to the College from Upshur County Schools.

“For a long time, I have wanted to connect to higher education,” he said. “I was teaching at the high school last year. I loved the opportunity to teach, but really got passionate about helping upperclassmen think about next steps – whether that was higher education, employment or enlisting in the military – that was the most fun I had.

“When I saw the position of director of career services and experiential learning was open, I felt like it was a great fit. Being a community member, I have floated around the outskirts of West Virginia Wesleyan College, but to be a part of this community in this role is really, really exciting to me.”

The Office of Career Services and Experiential Learning has also moved. Students will find Bowers on the second floor of the Benedum Campus Center in the Student Development suite when they return in August.

“My primary roles are going to be networking to make sure we have strong internships and experiential learning opportunities for students,” Bowers said. “I will also be developing career services to help students with building effective resumes and cover letters, interview skills, finding the right job or grad school after college.”

Bowers views his office as a campus resource center for students as they look at their next professional steps.

“Everybody comes to college thinking about what they are excited to learn, what they are passionate about, what career they want to pursue,” he said. “I think having a resource with very practical steps they can take to move toward their goals is very helpful.”

Bowers grew up in Buckhannon and moved back in 2012. He earned a Ph.D. in organizational leadership and has spent the last 10 years pastoring a church locally and working in the school system while building a business for leadership developing and coaching and consulting. He and his wife, Carrie, have four daughters.

Josh Lewis

Tue, 18 Aug 2020 13:00:00 -0000

Here is Josh's bio from WCHS:

Hi there!! I cannot tell you how happy I am to be here at WCHS/WVAH! To cover sports for a living has to be one of the greatest jobs in the world. Like every other kid growing up, I wanted to be a pro football or baseball player. You know, the next Bo Jackson. But I soon found out I wasn't big enough, strong enough or fast enough. You don't have to be Mel Kiper, Jr. to figure out that's not your meal-ticket. So what's the next best thing? Without question-- what I do now.

I love West Virginia and now consider it my home, but I am not a native of the Mountain State. The frozen tundra known as Minnesota is where I am from. Prior to moving to West Virginia, I worked in Minneapolis as a production assistant at WCCO TV. I am a big Vikings fan, as well as every other Minnesota sports team, and part of my duties included covering Vikings practices. The first person I'd ever met from West Virginia was the Valley's very own, Randy Moss.

I came to West Virginia in the fall of 2000. My first on-air TV job came at WVVA TV in Bluefield where I served as the Sports Director for two years. The primary objective at WVVA in Southern West Virginia is the same as the number goal here at TV 8 in Charleston-- LOCAL SPORTS. It's hard to pick a favorite time of the year. March is great-- I love tournament time.. but fall is also a wonderful time of the year with the high school football and college football seasons starting.

What I also love about my job is all the great people I get to meet. I am truly blessed to have been introduced to some of the folks in this state the past few years. I also love getting feedback, so drop me a line at jolewis@sbgtv.com if there's something on your mind!! Take Care!

Martin is a special teams coach at Riverbend High School in Fredericksburg, Virginia, where he works with place-kickers, punters, and kick-off specialists. He's also the author of the forthcoming book, 30 Days with America's High School Coaches.

Through interviews with coaches across the nation in a dozen high-school varsity sports, this book peels back the many ways that coaches shape the characters, work ethics, and morals of the young men and women they’re charged to work with in five key areas:

1) How coaches relate to their players.

2) How coaches approach their craft.

3) How coaches build programs.

4) How coaches improve themselves.

5) How coaches affect their communities.

Learn more about the book and when it will be available for purchase here.
