Athletic Hall of Fame<br />

Andrea Kincannon<br />
Class of 1983<br />
Andrea was unable<br />
to attend in person,<br />
but participated<br />
through Skype.<br />
“The Rev (Coach George Andrews) stands out in particular because he saw something more<br />
in me than I could see in myself. He would encourage me to look at the accomplishments of<br />
Althea Gibson (the first African-American woman to be a competitor on the world tennis tour)<br />
and to think more expansively about the possibilities for my future.<br />
“Being in the company of exceptional coaches and teammates who work in the spirit of cooperation<br />
makes for a solid athletic foundation.”<br />
According to Andrea, <strong>Liggett</strong> was “a great environment in which to develop or incubate my<br />
intellectual curiosity and my athletic talents.”<br />
Michael Coello,<br />
M.D.<br />
Class of 1990<br />
“There will never be so strong<br />
a bond as the one between<br />
those of us that worked,<br />
bled and sweat so much and<br />
became champions together.”<br />
When Mike Coello attended <strong>Liggett</strong>, it was simply<br />
the enjoyment of playing sports and the camaraderie<br />
of his teammates and friends that was important.<br />
It was later that he realized the value of the<br />
unique experience of playing sports at <strong>Liggett</strong>.<br />
“Our coaches, for the most part were our teachers.<br />
There was always the balance between athletics<br />
and academics that was stressed. Sports provided<br />
an outlet and structure. Friendships were forged.<br />
The work ethic and concept of teamwork were<br />
further developed and ingrained in me and have<br />
served me well in college, training and surgery.”<br />
