Mr. Messenger

Don’t Hurt the Messenger

By: Marley Lambert

          This school year, Mr. Messenger became our full-time athletic trainer, substitute teacher, and assistant football coach. He attends all home athletic events and treats athletes throughout the school day.  He grew up in a small town outside of Springfield called Rogersville, Missouri. He first started last year solely as an after school athletic trainer, while also working at Peak Sport and Spine. He also worked as a trainer for the River City Rascals baseball team in O’Fallon, MO. When asked about what he thinks about Dupo he said, “It kind of reminds me of where I grew up, it is a small town which is something I kind of like.”
