THE GEESMAN GAME

by

Wes Doi as told by Chris Geesman



“Legendary” doesn't begin to describe the incredible high school football coaching career of Chris Geesman. A few of his accomplishments in his 30 years at the Helm of the Penn Kingsmen (Mishawaka, Indiana) are enough to make the point: a won-loss record of 310-48, a state record 89 consecutive regular season wins, top ten Indiana finishes 25 times, USA Today and other national ranking polls 12 times, 22 Northern Indiana Conference Titles and five State championships.

With longtime friend and fellow coach Wes Doi, Geesman here shares his formula for building a successful program with the staying power of a dynasty. His 60 principles and maxims are as applicable to life as they are to sports.

A master story teller, Geesman recalls details of seasons and games, the unexpected and unusual, in the same generous and personable style that marks his life. Geesman celebrates the assistant coaches and the more than a thousand student athletes he coached, 225 of whom went on to play college football. This is a book for football fans everywhere.
