Muhlenberg AD to Step Down
Sam Beidleman, a fixture at Muhlenberg College for more than 50 years, will retire June 30 as director of athletics and recreation, according to a news release from the Allentown school. Beidleman, who graduated in 1963 from Muhlenberg, has served as a coach, faculty member and administrator at the college.
"I am fortunate to have been employed at a place that is very special to me, not once but twice," Beidleman said in the release. "The second time has certainly been shorter than the first but no less rewarding. I have had a lot of years doing what I thoroughly enjoy so it never really felt like work."
The former Zephyr and Mule was an associate professor of physical education from 1965 to 1992.
According to the release, Muhlenberg plans to announce the details about Beidleman's replacement in the near future.
