These outstanding leaders were men of character, men Iowa High School Athletic Association of integrity, and men who cared about the well-being of our young people. To follow in their footsteps is truly an honor and a privilege.

I feel equally honored to support the work our superintendents, principals, athletics and activities directors, other admin- istrators, and coaches do to provide exceptional activities and opportunities for the students of our wonderful schools. These are the people “in the trenches.” These are the people who make our schools and our programs the kind we can all be proud of. These are the people who commit themselves to teaching important lessons through athletics and other education-based activities programs.

The key components of any great organization are great people, great communication, and an endless pursuit of contin- uous improvement. From my time on the IHSAA’s Board of Control and my short time working directly with the staff of the IHSAA and Iowa Hall of Pride, I am convinced we have terrific people in place.

We are already evaluating our communication — including a survey which will be coming to athletic directors in the next two weeks — and will work tirelessly to provide important and timely information, answer your questions, and operate with transparency. In regard to improvement, I’ll continue to share a mantra I embraced as a coach, an activities director, and a principal: We either get better or worse; we never stay the same. To that end, we will continually evaluate what we do and how we do it, striving to get better at serving our schools and our students.

One of our first orders of business this year will be to develop a vision for the IHSAA. Simply put, we want to explore who we are, where we are going, why we are going there, and how we are going to get there. It’s important to me that the schools we serve know exactly what we believe, what we do, and why we do it. Developing the vision will be an exciting process and one I’m looking forward to sharing with all of our constituents. Once that vision is developed, it will guide all that we do.

As we embark upon another school year full of exciting challenges I wish all of you — administrators, coaches, students, and families — my very best!

Sincerely,

July 2019 11 ihsaa recaps Golf Weather shortens all 2018-19 championships to one round After a rain-shortened Class 4A fall tournament, the three spring tournaments set for May 23 and 24 were supposed to provide closure for 3A, 2A, and 1A in the 2019 golf season. Instead, the weather emerged as the state’s top finisher. In the IHSAA’s 45 years of 36-hole championships, the 2018-19 athletic year marked the first time that all four classes were cut down due to weather. It was the 92nd year of state golf overall, and only in 1935 was the tournament completely rained out. The 2019 spring golfers got Thursday’s 18 holes in, but by early Friday morning, all the scores had unfortunately been declared final. Due to heavy overnight rains and their resulting course conditions, 3A in Fort Dodge, 2A in Marshall- town, and 1A in Newton were done. The shortened tournament disappointed coaches, play- ers, and spectators, but strong performances resulting in medals and trophies brought smiles back on the podiums. Heavy overnight rains during a soaked week left standing water on state tournament courses and forced Round 2 cancellations. Marshalltown’s American Legion Golf Course is pictured above.
