I was born on April 1st, 1929, in the city of Barberton, in the great state of Ohio. My parents are Glenn and Betty Schembechler. I grew up in a working class family. Both of my parents worked very hard. My dad made a living as a firefighter, and raised me with an honest, do-the-right-thing, Midwestern work ethic.
I got my high school education at Barberton High School, and later attended Miami of Ohio University. Before college, my dad died of a stroke. At this time, my mom was the rock of the Schembechler household. At Miami of Ohio, I lettered in football as an offensive tackle. During my junior year, Miami won the MAC Conference championship. I was able to balance football and school very well. After graduating from Miami, I received my Masters degree at Ohio State University in Education.

It was my junior year at Walden III High School, when I realized that attending Milwaukee was a possibility for me. As a student and an athlete, Milwaukee would be a great school for me.

“Winning isn’t everything it’s the only thing” is a harsh reality in today’s dog eat dog society. Vince Lombardi, the origin of this quote, was a football coach who took the worst team in the league, the Green Bay Packers, and made them into a perennial powerhouse.

His statement holds true in today’s game because it is both the athletes and the coach’s goal to be the best in their profession. As an athlete, I train to be a champion. Not only do athletes and organizations strive to be number one, but so to do those in the ‘real world’ that work everyday jobs. People in the work force also strive to be the best at their jobs because with success come rewards. This may be a selfish reason to be successful but without it the world would not be as advanced as it is today.
