Chic Poppe - Retiring

Pretty neat article about Chic Poppe on Cincinnati.com. I'd have to agree, the guy was everywhere.

I'd see him at any major event I went to in Cincinnati. I'm pretty sure I saw him at the Thanksgiving Day Race. (He missed me for an interview though...)

Found this guy's website. His name is Taylor Mali. Here is a link to his website. He is a really interesting guy. Big time into education, bettering our current educational system and recruiting talented people into that field.

See the article on here.

My wife and I met her this summer at the tournament. Super nice off the court, fiercely competitive on the court.
