Pohl family congratulations, prayers

Jim Pohl ’70, an adjunct teacher in the School of Education, Twin Cities campus, and member of the SMU Sports Hall of Fame, received the Cliff Thompson Award for the “Old Timer Coach” of the year. Pohl is a retired principal at Red Wing High School and taught and coached for many years prior to become a school administrator.

Please also keep the Pohl family in your thoughts and prayers. Jim's son, Tom, plays for the Minnesota Gophers hockey team and suffered a serious skull fracture during a game on March 18. After a successful head surgery, Tom is at home in Red Wing with his family. Notes of support can be sent to:
