Pending board approval, Drew Colvin has been selected to lead the Hamilton Heights Boys Soccer program. Drew will be filling the shoes of veteran head coach, Derrick Dean, who resigned to take a new full-time job outside of education/coaching.
Colvin graduated from Sheridan High School in 2003 where he earned varsity letters in soccer, basketball, and track and field. After high school, Drew attended Grace College on a soccer scholarship before transferring to Purdue University after marrying his wife, Hannah. Drew and Hannah have been married for 16 years and have four kids, Micah (14), Abby (13), Ethan (10) and Bri (8).
“Drew is going to bring a lot of energy to the program and with the help of his coaching staff, implement a different system than in the past. The numbers are large and the excitement for the continued success of the program is just as big. We are looking forward to what Drew and his staff will bring to the table to help establish a culture of hard work, discipline and sportsmanship,” said Kurt Ogden, Hamilton Heights Athletic Director.
“I am extremely excited and humbled to be the next Boys Soccer Head Coach at Hamilton Heights High School,” said Colvin. “The shoes to fill are big. Derrick Dean built this program from almost nothing. While I coached with Coach Dean, I plan on implementing my own coaching style and culture for the team moving forward. My goals for the program are simply to improve in our ability to compete at a higher level while teaching the boys some life lessons along the way. I truly enjoy coaching and I am extremely excited for the future of the program.”
