The Bath High School girls basketball program began in 1971, and is nearing 900 wins in program history.  All of those wins have been accomplished by two head coaches... Two!  Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame member Gretchen Prichard led the program from 1971 to 1998 with a record of 460-116 during her 28 seasons.  When Greg Mauk became head coach in 1998 the often unspoken sentiment surrounding the program was, "If he wins, he will be doing so because of the program that had been created.  And if he loses... well, it's all on him."  Fortunately for Greg Mauk, he has won, and won, and won some more.  With more than 400 wins and four trips to the state final four during his 22-year tenure, it is safe to say that the Wildkitten program has thrived under his leadership.  Coach Mauk is a unique leader from a family of leaders, his late sister Vicki coached Elida High School to a girls state championship in 1997, and his cousin Mike Mauk led the Kenton High School football program to state titles in 2001 and 2002.  Coach Mauk shares the story of his journey into coaching, from football to basketball, from boys to girls.  Please enjoy my conversation with Greg Mauk of Bath High School
