The Grinnell College athletic community gathered this evening to honor Greg Wallace as he leaves the department and begins his new role working in our Office of Admission. Wallace has been an integral member of our department since 1988, at various times serving as the head coach of baseball, football, and men's golf, as well as both the assistant director of athletics and the director of athletics. He saw great success in all of his roles on campus, and his integrity and leadership will be missed.
Kind words in honor of Greg came from Dean of the College Mike Latham. Former director of athletics Dee Fairchild, and recently appointed director Andy Hamilton were less kind! They pulled no punches in roasting Wallace, to the delight of the crowd.
