Coach “O” has been a staple on the sidelines of Warwick Valley Wildcat athletic teams for46 years.
John Olszewski, affectionately referred to as “Coach O,” will be stepping down this year after 46 years of volunteer service to Warwick Football and Warwick Athletics.
Coach O has been a fixture in Warwick Athletics in many sports including, softball, soccer and football and loved by all.
You may best know him as sideline game day operations manager with the Varsity Football Team, always willing to lend a hand fixing a helmet, getting equipment and quickly solving problems for all.
At the young age of 77 years old Coach O has been a positive influence on our young people and left big footprints on the landscape of Warwick Athletics.
He has a lifetime invitation to all Warwick athletic events and hope we can get him back every year for at least one home game.
Go Wildcats! Go Coach O!
