Martin Segovia named Garden City Athletic Director

Martin Segovia was named the new Athletic Director at Garden City high school today.
Segovia is originally from Garden City and only left to attend college at the University of Nebraska-Kearney.

While in college Segovia was a three-time All American wrestler in the 134 pound weight class. Segovia made an appearance in 1993 at the National tournament where he placed fifth, and then in 1995 was national runner-up.

Because of his accomplishments at Kearney, Segovia was inducted into the Hall of Fame at the university.

Segovia has been a teacher at Garden City High school, along with being an administrator at surrounding elementary schools.

Segovia also coached the GCHS wrestling team for three years as an assistant and seven years as the head coach. In his reign as Buff head coach, he earned a 119-16 dual record, and was named Kansas 6A coach of the year two times running.

Segovia will precede Bill Weatherly in the 2010-2011 season.
