Men’s Club Welcomes Sportscaster Dan Coughlin
The Men’s Club of Regina Health Center had a special guest speaker at its monthly meeting and luncheon in September—Dan Coughlin, longtime Cleveland sports reporter and anchor. During his “Half a Century of Cleveland Sports” talk, Dan shared personal stories of his high school days at St. Eds and Saint Ignatius and his time in the U.S. Army, before becoming a reporter.
For more than 18 years, he traveled around the country covering the Indians and Browns for The Plain Dealer. He covered the U.S. Olympic Hockey team that beat the Soviet Union in 1980. In 1983, he switched to television sports reporting for WJW TV in Cleveland, where he remains on Friday nights. Dan shared many Cleveland sports memories and laughs with the audience. The Men’s Club meets the 3rd Monday of each month at noon.
