My freshman year at Lake Superior (82 - 83) Bill Selmen was the head coach.
I'm not sure how long he had been there but I think not long.  He
left during that season, I believe to take a sports marketing position
with Anheiser (sp) Busch. He was replaced by Frank Anzalone who took us
to our first national championship and who was later replaced by Jeff
Jackson.  I'm not positive this is the same Bill Selmen you are talking
about but it seems reasonable.
