The Bare's Den w/ Matt Bare

Episode #31 - Abe Woldeslassie (Black History Month spotlight)


Listen Later

For this episode we continue to highlight Black History Month and we spotlight another African-American that is a leader in his field.  Coach Abe Woldeslassie is the head men’s basketball coach for D-3 Macalester College here in Minnesota.  Abe is coaching at his alma-mater working to bring that group to prominence in the always competitive MIAC conference.  Abe is also a leader for another reason as he is the only African-American head coach in the conference for men’s or women’s basketball, a responsibility he doesn’t take lightly.  

In this episode we chat about his path to becoming a head coach, building up the Macalester  program and what it will take to get more people of color opportunities to become a head coach.  I also discover where the best maple syrup in the country comes from and that we need to bring back the "play hard" shorts with the 1990's.  

Enjoy this conversation in the Bare's Den with Macalester Head Men's Basketball Coach - Abe Woldeslassie.
