Christian graduated from Boonville in 1993. He's been attending Pirate games since he was a baby. As he likes to say, he bleeds blue and white. He tries to attend every home game possible.
The most memorable sporting experience for Christian was in in 1998 for his first year ever coaching football. He was coaching at Boonville with a group of coaches and players that were determined to achieve one goal: becoming state champions. As he puts it:

When the last seconds ticked off the clock at the then TWA Dome I could not believe the unbelievable ride I had just taken with a very special group of young men and outstanding group of coaches. We had achieved our goal by defeating California 33-22 and became the 1998 3A State Champs. The memories of that season will always inspire me as a coach and fuel the desire for a return trip to the championship.This year being the ten year anniversary of that season Christian got a chance to catch up with some of those players from the 1998 3A State Champions at a brunch held for them. To cap it all off that evening the ’08 Pirates achieved their first win of the season against Marshall for homecoming and the night of honor and recognition for the ’98 State Champs. Non-sporting hobbies: Anything outdoors, including fishing and hunting. Any chance he gets, he spends it outdoors with his kids. He is passing on his outdoor lessons to his sons. He says there is nothing no more rewarding than watching your kids learn how to do something you love to do.
