McMahon Coach of the Year
by Staci Beard
Sports Editor
Mick McMahon, the bowling
coach who received the AVCO
1989 Coach of the Year award,
also performs that task at Clacka­
mas Community College.
The award was sponsored by
the AVCO Financial Services. The
contest had entries from every state.
Although finding out that he
was a winner was a big but pleas­
ant surprise, McMahon knew of
the his entry into the contest Each
nominated person had to write an
article about how he motivated
his classes and his methods.
The result -of winning the
award besides the honor was an
all-expense-paid trip to Alexan­
dra, Virginia, which he shared with
his daughter.
“Part of my reason in getting
kids interested in the sport be­
sides the enjoyment of it, is be­
cause right now adult leagues
consist mostly of participants in
their forties. As they get older,
there will be less people behind
them to fill those leagues up.
“Besides that, I also enjoy
watching the kids develop both as
bowlers and as people,” explained
McMahon.
In the late 1950’s, when bowl­
ing alleys were springing up eve­
rywhere, is when McMahon first
picked up the sport
“During the summer when I
was 12, the local bowlingalleywas
giving free lessons and bowling
for teens in the area,” stated
McMahon.
At the age of fifteen, McMa­
hon made the decision to try and
become a professional bowler.
From the Summer of 1970 until
the Summer of 1972 McMahon
was on the professional tour until
an eye disease interrupted his
career. Except for a brief return in
Summer of 1982 until the Fall of
1983, his career in professional
bonding was over.
For three years, McMahon
has been coach of the Cougai
bowling team. Last year’s season
ended when the team voted to
drop from the league due to feel­
ing of unfairness by the President
of the Oregon Conference.
This Spring the President was
voted out of office and the Cou­
gars will return to action this year.
“Being able to pass on the
knowledge that I have gained has
enabled me to pass it on to those
that I teach is great,” concluded
McMahon.
