Throws Community Mourns the Loss of Glenn Amundsen

The track and field community of Minnesota lost one of it's greats this past Saturday.  Glenn was not only the long time throws coach at Stewardville High School, but he coached numerous athletes across southeastern Minnesota.  His love of the sport is recanted by the numerous athletes and lives he touched.  Many of the athletes Glenn coached went into coaching because of the inspiration and guidance he provided.  The Glenn Amundsen Invite, held annually in Stewardville, is named in his honor.  For many of us who only knew Glenn as coach, it's amazing to read his obituary and see the amazing life he has lead.  Online condolences are welcome via the link below.

We send our condolences to his family and all of those who had a chance to work with Glenn, he will be missed.

Visitation and Mass will be held on Wednesday, February 26th at St. Francis Catholic Church.
