ust 10 years removed from their experience as students as Eastern Washington University, Michael Roos and his wife Katherine have already established a generous legacy of giving back to their alma mater. The check- Jlist of philanthropic giving, both individually and through the Michael Roos Foundation, is impressive: • $500,000 pledge toward the Red Turf project at EWU’s Woodward Field, which was renamed Roos Field at a dedication on Sept. 16, 2010. • Established the Michael Roos Foundation Dinner, Sports Auction and Poker Tourna- ment at Northern Quest Casino on March 10, 2007. The second-annual event took place on March 1, 2008. • In 2009 and 2010, the Michael Roos Foundation partnered with EWU’s Orland Killin Dinner, Dance and Auction. • Each June from 2010-2014, has hosted the Michael Roos Foundation Fish & Chip Tournament in the Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, area. The event features NFL players, EWU supporters and several corporate sponsors for two days of competition featuring golf and bass fishing, as well as a special autograph signing event, lake cruise and youth clinic. • During its short existence, the Michael Roos Foundation has benefited Eastern Athletics, Special Olympics in Washington and Boys and Girls Clubs of Spokane County. • In addition, the Roos family has donated not just one, but two sets of uniforms to the Eastern Football program. As a tribute to their giving legacy, Eastern re-named Woodward Field to “Roos Field” at a dedication ceremony Sept. 16, 2010, two days prior to the first game played on the new red turf against Montana on Sept. 18. In making the approval of the name change, the Eastern Board of Trustees commended the Roos family’s philanthropic efforts on behalf of Eastern and the community through the Michael Roos Foundation. “We are thrilled to be able to acknowledge in this manner the incredible contri- butions Michael and Katherine have made to Eastern Washington University,” said Eastern athletic director Bill Chaves. “We felt this was the most appropriate honor we could give them.” In addition, Eastern honored Roos by retiring his jersey at EWU’s Starting Streak Now at 224 Homecoming game on Since Michael Roos became an offensive lineman Oct. 24, 2009, versus as a sophomore at Eastern Washington University Montana State. in 2002, he has started every football game he has “Having my jersey retired is obviously a huge thrill for me,” said Roos. “It’s something you never played from 2002-14 as a collegian or professional think is going to happen, so when I was told about it, I was definitely ecstatic. It’s an honor that not – a streak that has now reached over 200. He start- ed 190 of a possible 190 games until an appendicitis many players achieve at any level, so I feel extremely honored that Eastern has decided to retire attack and subsequent surgery ended that streak mine.” in October 2012. He entered the 2014 season with The 6-foot-7, 315-pound Roos is quick to credit his former coaches at Eastern -– offensive line 218-straight starts, but did not play in the team’s final coach Aaron Best and head coach Paul Wulff – for his accomplishments along the way. Best is 2014 preseason game. Here’s the math: currently offensive line coach and offensive coordinator at EWU, while Wulff moved on to become head coach at Washington State University, an assistant with the San Francisco 49ers and is now 35 starts at EWU (3 seasons, 2002-04) at South Florida. +40 preseason NFL Games (9 seasons, 2005-14) “I was very lucky to have the best offensive line coach possible in Aaron Best,” praised Roos. +146 regular season NFL Games (9, 2005-14) “He taught all of us the meaning of hard work and perseverance. Also, I was fortunate that Paul +2 NFL Playoff Games (2007 & 2008) Wulff took a chance on me out of high school and gave me the opportunity. +1 NFL Pro Bowl Game (February 2009) =224 Straight Starts (through 9/21/14) “Most importantly, I owe the most to my wife Katherine,” he added. “She has put her life on hold since the day the NFL was a faint possibility, and she has supported me 100 percent every step of the way.”

Tennessee Titans offensive tackle Michael Roos and his wife Katherine kick-started the Red Turf Project with a $500,000 contribution as part of their on-going legacy of giving to Eastern. As a result, the field was renamed in their honor at a dedication ceremony on Sept. 16, 2010. Two days later, 18th-ranked Eastern defeated sixth-ranked Montana 36-27 in the first game on the red Sprinturf field on Sept. 18, 2010. The nickname “The Infermo” was an- nounced on the SWX television special “Rolling Out the Red Turf” the night before the Montana game. The other options in the fan voting for the nickname were Red Sea, Red Zone, Big Red, Red Carpet, Ring of Fire and Lava Pit. For the previous 78 years, the stadium was named Woodward Field in honor of former Eastern head foot­ball and basketball coach Arthur C. Wood­ward. The “New” Wood­ward Field has been used by the Eagles since 1967, but prior to that, Wood­ward Field was located near where Easte­rn’s JFK Library now sits and prior to that at another location on campus.
