SHERMAN - Mike Crowe has been named Offensive Coordinator at Austin College,
Vice President of Student Affairs and Athletics Tim Millerick announced
today. Crowe comes to Austin College from Pottsboro High School where he
served as athletic director and head football coach for three years.
Said Millerick, "We are fortunate to add someone with Mike's experience,
knowledge and success in coaching football to our football staff. We
anticipate that by adding him to our staff we have both improved our
coaching staff and our efforts to recruit the best possible Division III
athletes in Texas and the surrounding states."
Head Coach David Norman said "We're excited to have someone with Mike's
experience and caliber join the Austin College football family. He will
bring a lot to the field and to our recruiting process."
Two of Crowe's athletes from Pottsboro are currently on the Austin College
football roster; sophomore Bradley Rawlins and freshman Ryan Cowley. Cowley
was the team's leading rusher and was named to the American Southwest
All-Conference team.
On making the move to Austin College Crowe said, "I'm just thrilled to be
coming over to Austin College. It's been an aspiration of mine for some
time to work with kids at the next level. I'm excited about being a part of
Coach Norman's staff and being a part of Austin College."
Crowe and Andy, his wife of 33 years, live in Pottsboro and have two sons
and a daughter.
