Four years after retiring from teaching, Koivisto calls it a coaching career as well

Four years ago, Rick Koivisto retired from teaching. As far as coaching, however, his timetable coincided with the high school playing career of Michaela Casavan.

 
“I set a goal at one time of coaching 35 years,” Koivisto said. “And I wanted to coach Michaela, to be there when she got to 2,000 points. I’ve coached her since she was in eighth grade. I figured I might as well coach her all the way through.”
