Coach Goings is a winner Ferde Goings of the Yukon? What would you call a man that builds houses, coaches wrestling, holds down a teaching job and a family — and still remains hum- ble? Most people would call him fan- tastic; we call him Mr. Goings. Ferde Goings was born in Hol- dredge, Nebraska in 1945. His parents farmed the land of Hol- dredge, and from these beginnings Ferde Goings has gone on to live a full and illustrious life, spanning four sports and a career that has truly made him a winner in the Game of Life. Football and wrestling were the two sports he participated in dur- ing high school and college. After graduation, he spent his collegiate Dig them threads! years at Kearney State. He gradu- ated from there 1969 with a major in Physical Education and a minor in Mathematics. He went on to re- ceive his Master’s degree from U.N.O. in 1977. Ferde Goings married his wife Barbara in 1969. His family grew from there, and he is presently the proud father of three children - Cheryl, Kirk and Brett. He has taught at Plattsmouth a total of eleven years, and he has served as head wrestling coach for ten of those years. Call him Mr. Goings; call him humble; call him what you like — but you can’t help but call Ferde Goings fantastic. Goings for the T.D! 10 Dedication
