Former sports information director Dave Young will be inducted into the Bowling Green High School Hall of Fame for his work promoting organ and tissue donation.
Young, class of 1958, gives talks all over the Cincinnati area encouraging organ and tissue
donation.
Young was the sports information director for 25 years at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, where he still lives. He has suffered two heart attacks, the first when he was just 39 years old. He later developed a weakness in his heart muscle and had a heart transplant in 2000.
The transplant inspired him to become active in LifeCenter, a non-profit organ donor network. He helps to run a speaker's bureau for the organization and gives lectures with his wife at area churches and schools.
