Chester Marcol, a Polish immigrant who was recruited as a placekicker by former Hillsdale College head coach Frank Muddy Waters, made a splash as a soccer-style rookie kicker with the Green Bay Packers in 1972. He lead the National Football League in scoring and earned rookie of the year honors. He led the league in scoring again in 1974 and was a two-time All-Pro kicker. However, after his career ended, he has had a long battle with drug and alcohol addiction. Today, he remains sober, and works as a drug and alcohol abuse counselor in the Upper Peninsula.

Informative. Inspirational. Uplifting. Those are the goals of the White and Blue podcast. We are here to tell the interesting stories of Hillsdale College alumni, who number more than 15,000 strong. Our guests will share about their time and experiences while on campus, and also the impact they have had on the world since graduating. What makes the Hillsdale College graduate unique? We will explore that question and more, including how alumni have impacted the past, present, and future of the College. Won’t you join us?
