Northern Illinois SID Emeritus Mike Korcek Continues to Thrive in Behind-the-Scenes Role

Northern Illinois University SID Emeritus Mike Korcek, left, and Elgin High School Athletic Director Art Rohlman share a laugh after the Class 4A supersectional at the Convocation Center in DeKalb on Tuesday night (photo by Patrick Kunzer, Staff Photographer of The Daily Herald.com).

Every time you go to any type of sports event, there are people working behind the scenes that you don't know and probably never will, yet those are the people responsible for making sure the event runs smoothly.

And no two guys tackle that job better than Korcek and Rohlman.  Korcek is the retried sports information director at NIU and Rohlman is the soon-to-be retired athletic director at Elgin.
