We mourn the passing of Bart Wegenke after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer. His leadership in education, educational-athletics, and officiating will be missed, but the impact he had on so many will never be forgotten. 💔

It is with tremendous heartache to share that Coach Marcus Fray passed away peacefully this morning. As an elementary PE teacher and coach, he touched many lives. Above all else, he was a father and husband, two roles he cherished the most. Hug your loved ones!💙💔💛

Coaches sacrifice time with their own kids to be with others' kids.
"I’ve given up 18 years of my life and he’s given up 18 years of his life...I think I saw four games his senior year. And his high school is four blocks from me.”
While some fans spent time being angry at Tom Izzo for allowing his son to become a walk-on, just look at the layers in this image I took tonight.
-Look at the players on the bench.
-Observe the tears in Izzo's eyes.
-See the focus as Steven prepares to check in.
Enjoy sports.
