@CoachFredenburg is and will always be a true lifelong idol for me! The man is a living legend but beyond the game what he does for young men, developing future leaders, and what he’s given to the game goes beyond the win column. He’s won at life. #inspired #ServantLeadership https://t.co/03tbCDCtRY
