Frank Markovich
Golf Coach - 1958-1966

 

Mooney's first golf coach, Frank quickly established the golf program as one of the area's finest. An outstanding physics and advanced math teacher, Frank used this talent to improve his golfer's skills. During his tenure, four of his teams (1960,1963,1965,and 1966) qualified for State Tournament by either winning or finishing second in the Northeastern Ohio District Tournament. His 1960 team won the District with a score of 287, one of the lowest scores ever recorded in this tournament. Totally dominating City Series golf in the 60's, his teams, over a four year period, were undefeated in 57 straight matches winning City Series titles in 1964, 1965, and 1966. In all, his teams won four City Series titles. Many of Frank's proteges went on to further success after graduation.

A strong supporter of Mooney's total athletic program, Frank was also the school's first sports photographer. Though seldom seen at a football game, he was always there in the press box or on the roof braving the elements as his camera was running. His quality game films contributed much to the success of the football and basketball programs.

Frank, now retired, spends his free time tinkering with his computer and getting out on the links whenever weather permits. He lives in Boardman and has a daughter and a granddaughter.
