Congratulations Coach Olmstead on a wonderful coaching career! One of the best in the game who always had his Sailor teams ready to play. Best of luck and enjoy your much deserved retirement!
Hard to express what Coach Olmstead has done for area softball. You’d be hard pressed to find someone who cares about his athletes, the game, & doing things the right way more than him. Appreciate your friendship, will miss you on the other side of the diamond. Happy Retirement!
