Few people can claim to be such a vital part of Northwood athletics for a longer period of time than Larry Lindsey. In over forty years at Northwood, Lindsey has been involved with athletics in a multitude of roles - an athlete, a coach, a radio announcer, an administrator and a mentor. He started his time at Northwood as a two-sport athlete in 1966, competing in both basketball and football. Lindsey was a team captain for both teams in his senior year. In 1971, he began working at his alma mater and has remained in administration ever since, including serving as Northwood’s Dean of Students since 1988. Lindsey has also spent time as a coach at Northwood, including being the first head coach in the history of track and field (1974) and women’s basketball (1982). He was also interim Athletic Director in 2000. Most recently, Lindsey has been the color commentator for Northwood Football on the radio for over 15 years. His passion and love for Northwood athletics will always be remembered.
