School Story
I wanted desparately to be an IHSA State Champion. That dream did not happen for me. I was the 1964 IHSA State Runner-Up in Wrestling, and I was on the ETHS Football Team that was voted #2 in the 1963 Illinos State Football Poll.
My athletic consolation was that I was awarded a Big Ten Football Scholarship to Northwestern University in 1964. Solid academics in the Evanston Public School System and at ETHS prepared me well to be able to earn a Ph.D. degree in Biomedical Engineering from U.C.L.A.
