Chris Ervin, CAA, former athletic director at St. Johns High School, wrote, “Leadership, character and service are three qualities that Greg brings to athletic administration. These are qualities he expects from his coaches and student-athletes. Greg lives what he expects. He has continually demonstrated solid leadership in his schools, at the league level and at the state level, as he has served the MIAAA and MHSAA. He is simply one of the best in the industry, always working incredibly hard and willing to learn and improve.”
