I appreciate Lynn Solo’s defense of Rep. Tim Walz in a letter to this paper. I taught with Tim at West and can attest to his dedication and hard work while employed there.
I feel, however, a correction is in order. It was Rick Sutton who as head coach succeeded in turning the Mankato West football program around in the 1990s. West football teams won two state championships (1999 and 2002) under the leadership of Sutton and his assistant coaches. Walz was one of the assistants during that first state championship season.
