Interview with Michael Cole: S5E12

Pennsylvania born and raised. Mike always knew he wanted to stay in PA. and as the youngest child he also found his passion for competitiveness. These two things gave him the opportunity to thrive in wrestling and to go to college locally.

He attended Clarion University where he received his Bachelors and his MBA. While at Clarion he was 2X All-American and made it to the Olympic trials' finals.

When it was time to hang up the wrestling shoes, Mike went into the corporate world. He had a plan though. Mike always knew he wanted to follow in the path of the many coaches that he learned from and admired.

At the end of his business career, Mike retired as the Managing Director of Technology at Morgan Stanley. While others think of hobbies, he knew exactly what was next.

Mike is now the Head wrestling coach at  Hunterdon Central HS, where he was given the award as Coach of the Year.

During my research on Michael Cole, I came upon an article and saw a quote that every new leader can learn from. This is when he started his high school coaching.

"My idea is, I'm not going to change anything until I learn everything that is going on".

Great advice.
