A Lesson in Leadership: Be Committed!

Vince Lombardi once said, "Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society, a civilization work."    The former Athletic Director at the University of Alaska - Anchorage, Dr. Steve Cobb, understood Lombardi's message - he possessed a strong sense of commitment to student-athletes and the success of the athletic program.

Dr. Steve Cobb, an alumni of Texas A&M University-Commerce, passed away on Tuesday, September 2 in Florida.   The following article was written by Doyle Woody of the Alaska Dispatch News.   Mr. Woody captured the essence of a leader who was firmly committed to his profession - Athletics as well as the success of Student-Athletes in the classroom and on the field of play.   


RIP - Coach Cobb ... you will be missed!
