Congratulations
to Virginia
Wesleyan College men's basketball head coach Dave Macedo, who received
the
prestigious Tom Ferguson Memorial Award last week from the Norfolk
Sports Club. The Ferguson Award is presented annually by the Norfolk
Sports Club to
the Metropolitan Person of the Year in Sports.
Coach Macedo led the 2014-15
men's basketball team to the national semifinals, his third appearance in the
Final Four as the head mentor of the Marlins. In his 16 years at Virginia
Wesleyan, he has garnered an amazing 354-112 record.
Executive Director of Athletics
Joanne Renn says that Dave is the consummate professional and that he was
honored not only for his success as a coach, but also as a role model to young men as an
outstanding husband, father and community member.

wife Kristen and children Nolan, Lillian, and Declan. We are proud that
they are a part of the Virginia Wesleyan College community.
