Mystery Classmate 022

Congratulations to Jim Davliakos, who correctly identified George Zanic ('85) as Mystery Classmate 022, noting that George is of Greek descent.

In case you were wondering, George Zanic is the head Baseball Coach at Juniata College. Under George's leadership, the Eagles have gone 38-35-1 over the past two seasons. (A tie in baseball?!) George, a 1989 Juniata graduate, was a four year letterman and three year starter at second base, compiling a .318 career batting average. As a senior, George captained the 1989 squad which won the Middle Atlantic Northern Division title and he was named the team's most valuable player, hitting .367 with 24 RBI. George graduated from Widener University School of Law in 1992 and is a partner in the law firm of Bierbach, McDowell, McMinn & Zanic. He lives in Huntingdon with his wife Lori and children Savannah and Nicholas.

Milton Koutavas sent the picture of George, also noting that he is of Greek descent, while pointing out the technicality that George actually graduated from Swissvale, although he played on the Churchill soccer team.
