Lehigh University football coach Andy Coen will be the main speaker when the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame Lehigh Valley Chapter holds its 54th annual Scholar-Athlete banquet on Sunday March 2, 2014 at 4:30 pm at the Northampton Community Center.
Coen, who has guided Lehigh to a 59-33 record over eight seasons and has won or shared three Patriot League titles, is following in the footsteps of last year's headline speaker Bill O'Brien, the former Penn State coach now in charge of the Texans.
Other speakers over the years have included the late Joe Paterno and Woody Hayes, Johnny Majors, Bobby Bowden, George Welsh, Jackie Sherrill, Lloyd Carr and Dick Vermeil.
The night features the honoring of 34 high school scholar-athletes and also the scholar-athletes from the six local college football programs (East Stroudsburg, Kutztown, Muhlenberg, Moravian, Lehigh and Lafayette).
Last year's chapter scholar-athlete was Caleb Johnson of Northern Lehigh, who is now at Harvard.
The ticket price is $30. Contact Herb Barrall at 484-515-6530 by February 13.
