Athletic Hall of Fame<br />

continued…<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 />
