Chosen for this week’s first Staff Spotlight is Mr. Max Logterman. This year is his second year as a football coach in addition to his first year on staff at Brooklyn High School. Outside of school during his free time, he likes to hang out with friends as well as binge watch Netflix. Something interesting you may not know about Mr. Logterman is that he played college football at The University of Mount Union.
Q: Describe your college experience.
A: “The first college I went to was Mount Union for football. Then, I just got tired of doing sports, and I’ve always wanted to go to Ohio State, so I ended up transferring there to finish off school.”
Q: What is your favorite part about working with the students/athletes here at Brooklyn High School?
A: “Both the students and the staff have been great. Brooklyn is a small school, and that’s also been nice since it’s more of a community; whereas, in other bigger schools, you may not get the same opportunities to communicate or even get to know others.”
Q: What inspired you to become a football coach?
A: “I’ve always loved the sport. When I was in college, I enjoyed playing it, but I was just done with it at the same time. I wanted to find a way to be around the game but in a different avenue than playing. An opportunity came up with my coaches at my old high school, and they needed someone as a coach, last minute. I kind of fell into coaching, but it worked out for the best in the end.”
Q: What is your favorite part about Brooklyn High School so far?
A: “The people. The students entertain me, and the staff is great.”
Q: What is your dream occupation?
A: “I’d like to be an athletic director at a decently large high school.”
Q: What is your #1 pet peeve?
A: “I cannot stand when people are lazy. Also, I get annoyed by messes.”
Q: What is your biggest regret, and how would you have gone about dealing with it differently?
A: “Trying a little harder in school so I could’ve received more scholarships.”
Q: How do you plan on spending your Thanksgiving break?
A: “Relaxing and watching Ohio State and Michigan play.”
Q: What is an unpopular opinion that you have?
A: “Wilt Chamberlain did not actually score 100 points in a game.”
Q: If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
A: “I’d like to teleport. I think it would be nice to be able to go from one place to another in a short period of time and not have to worry about flying or driving.”
Thank you for letting us interview you, Mr. Logterman. It was a pleasure getting to know you more throughout the interview. We wish you the best of luck this school year and beyond.
