# Studying abroad 1997 spring semester

Coach: Dr. David Schmitz, Whitman College Associate Professor of History team on the other side of Spokane, and I was missing practices with the Shadow on a regular basis. Coaching was my first priority at that time."

In joining the Whitman athletic department, Houston was reunited with longtime friend Scott Shields, who coaches the women's soccer team at the college.

"We basically grew up together (in Richland, Wash.)," Houston said. "We lived in the same neighborhood and played on a lot of the same teams, whether it was in youth leagues or on select teams. Scott is one of my best friends, so the opportunity to coach with him is a great situation for me."

Houston and Shields were soccer pioneers of sorts in Richland. "They didn't have varsity soccer at Richland High School until 1987, the year we were seniors. Scott and I and a few others had to lobby hard to get soccer into the high school."

The summer following his high school graduation, Houston and two friends started a youth soccer camp in Richland. "We ran the camp every summer while we were in college, and it turned out to be very successful," he said. "Many of the kids who came to camp had problems in other parts of their lives, so I'd take an interest and try to help them out. That's what sparked my interest in counseling."

Once he completes his master's degree in counseling, Houston hopes to combine coaching and counseling at the college level as a long-term professional career.

"Coaching is something I enjoy very much," he said. "It's almost as rewarding as playing, and the same holds true for counseling. As early as high school, friends started bringing their problems to me. I guess I'm a good listener, and I like to help."

Congratulations!

Not counting inquiries from the small town of Ephrata, Wash., where the coffee shop debate still rages as to who was a better hometown basketball player -- Skip Molitor or Travis King -- and where the final vote totals are too close to call and won't be decided until all the absentee ballots are tabulated (and counted, too), you are basketball fan number to have accessed this page since Nov. 27, 1995.
