Goshert awaits task as Wawasee's new coach

By DAVE STRAUB Sports Editor Gary Goshert is a busy man these days. But that’s the going price for what he calls “a step in the right direction.” Meet Wawasee High School’s new head basketball coach. “I was ready for a switch.” said Goshert, who taught and coached in the West Noble school system for 13 years. He was also head basketball coach at the high school the last four seasons, compiling a 49-39 record. “The coaching opportunity, the chance to move to a bigger school and getting in the Northern Lakes Conference were all attractive things about Wawasee.” Goshert added. “From what I’ve seen here so far. there are nothing but positives. The school, the facilities and the people seem to be top notch. ” Pumped with enthusiasm and seasoned with experience, Goshert is faced with a task common to all new employees. “I’ve been around here the last week or so. trying to get familiar with the surroundings.” he said. “I’ve also been trying to meet as many people as I can. I’ve met with a lot of the coaches and some of the athletes and everyone has been very cordial to me. I just don't have all their names remembered, but that will come in time." Presently, Goshert is running Wawasee’s basketball camp Then, he will focus his efforts on teaching, which will be general science. Getting the Warriors ready for basketball will come next. "I’m here to do my job." he said. “And that’s to teach and coach and I’m very anxious to get started.” As a coach, Goshert "never had any trouble getting kids to play hard." They played hard for him at West Noble, where he guided the Chargers to a 17-5 record last season. West Noble shared its conference title with Lakeland, Westview and Garrett. AH

schools had 7-2 league marks. “Enthusiasm is very’important in coaching.” said Goshert. “I think its important to let kids know when they're right, not just when they ’re wrong It makes the game more fun to cheer and stress positives. Every coach has his own way of demanding some things and there are different Avays of doing it. \ “I just try to be myself," he addpd “And you have to be yourself, to have your own personality and go f rom there. ’ ’ Goshert first realized the purpose of his profession after his freshman year at Manchester College He starred in football, basketball and golf at Warsaw Community High School and attended coliege "to participate in sports." Goshert was Manchester’s starting quarterback for three years and was a golf team member there as well. “That was one of my reasons for going to college." Goshert recalled “When I was at Manchester. I realized what sports were there for. So as a freshman. I decided to go for teaching and coaching as a career." To Goshert, teaching and coaching should not interfere with each other "They go hand-in-hand.” he said “They are directly involved with young people So you need to communicate with them very well. ” Goshert obviously communicates well He was the top choice of 39 candidates for the coaching job John Wysong vacated last spring “Wawasee has a lot of things that West Noble doesn't have. ” he admits, noting facilities as a basic difference between a school with 500 students and another with almost 1.000. “But I really liked being at West Noble In fact . I liked it enough to stay for 13 yeasts. It was my first job out of college and I enjoyed the school, the people and I made a lot of good friendships there. The Wawasee job just came at an opportunistic time for me. ”
