SEASON OUTLOOK
BY BRIAN MARTIN, HEAD COACH
to make big plays and be explosive. We are still having a competition at Quarterback and very lucky to have any of them lead this team.
The 2021 Football season has a much different feeling from the 2020 season. A lot has to do with Covid-19 and not having team meetings, fall camp, and only playing three games in 2020.
Special Teams is a very important part of the game, and we are fortunate enough to have players that focus on some of those skills that can change a game.
This year the Fords are ready to work hard and compete. We are still young with limited experience but every bit of practice helps to build for our upcoming season. To continue to improve as a team we rely on the four pillars of the program: Communication, Commitment, Contribution and Character. We also have our Leadership Council to be the foundation of the program on and off the field. We use these two tools to help navigate through the season.
For the Defensive side of the ball, we are 3-4 team that swarms to the ball. Again, our Defensive Line is our strength and can cause havoc for opposing teams. Our Linebackers are both aggressive on the run and take pride in pass coverage. For the Secondary, we have skilled players that can cover and give run support where needed. This season the energy is high from the coaches to the players. We all have been putting in the work and now it is time to find our identity and welcome new challenges each week. The sky is the limit for this team and we cannot wait to see what we can accomplish together.
On the Offensive side of the ball, we are an RPO style offense with our strength being upfront with our Offensive Line. We have some experience, which will prepare us to compete against any team. At the skill positions, we will go by committee at both Wide Receiver and Running Back. Our skill players have the ability 4

LEADERSHIP COUNCIL Since the 2018 Season the Fords have instituted a Leadership Council to act as a liaison between the team and the coaching staff. The council is comprised of players from each grade level on the team. The representatives are selected by the team members of each class. The council will be involved in making decisions that affect the team, meeting with the head coach weekly to talk about the current state of the team, and providing leadership for the program.

MEET COACH MARTIN BRIAN MARTIN Title: Head Coach Years Coaching: 21 College: Wesley
In 2020, Brian Martin was named the 15th Head Coach in the history of The Haverford School. Martin has been the Defensive Coordinator for the Varsity Football team since 2006, during which the program won 5 Inter-Ac championships. Under his guidance he has had numerous players play at the colligate level and others to rejoin him as coaches. Brian enjoys the challenges that each season bring and tries to put his players in the best position for them to be successful. Brian does many things to make the program achieve at a high from scouting to recruiting and being camp director for Mike Murphy Football Camp. Each one of those things make the program a tough competitor in a very good league. Brian has also coached Middle School Varsity Lacrosse since 2006. Middle School is a place where players compete and have fun. It is about getting better and having an opportunity to play for one of the best programs in the country. Brian was introduced to the Haverford School back in 2001, where he was hired as an Assistant JV Lacrosse coach. From there Brian has been part of the Haverford community and in 2004 Brian was hired as a Health and Physical Education teacher. He has been a part of many boys lives and watching them growing up to men. Whether it is coaching 8th grade basketball, Winter Fitness, or in the classroom, he cherishes the rapport with his players and looks forward to the future. Brian played for St. James High School in Chester where he played Football, Track and Baseball. He loves sports and the teamwork that goes into being competitive. He continued his football career at Wesley College and won an ECAC Championship. Brian has a wife and three children.

THE CANNON CLUB THE CANNON CLUB EXISTS TO SUPPORT THE OVERALL MISSION OF HAVERFORD SCHOOL FOOTBALL THROUGH THE VOLUNTEER EFFORTS OF PARENTS, ALUMNI, FRIENDS, AND FANS.
KEY INITIATIVES • Production of the Annual Program Book • Home Game Tent Events • Senior Banners • Fall / Spring Social BBQ • Friendraiser Event • Camp Meals And Pre-Game Meals • Game Day Gatorade • Team Banquet • Coaches Gifts • Senior Honor Night and Football Alumni Gathering • Senior Gifts • Safe-Keeping ond Firing of Brownie’s Cannon • Any Non-School Budgetary Needs for Wish-List/ Extra Equipment
CANNON CLUB HISTORY school year with the declaration: “ You can’t appreciate the history of 20th Century Europe if you don’t know the smell of gunpowder!” He would then fire his black powder cannon, which would then reverberate across the football field and throughout the entire campus. In honor of Brownie and all men and women, past and present, in all branches of the United States Military who dutifully served our nation, each Haverford School Home football game begins with the firing of Brownie’s cannon. Each player and coach rubs the lucky cannon as he exits the locker room for pre-game warm-ups. Then, prior to kick-off, and just prior to the National Anthem, the Cannon is fired, and the fired-up Fords explode from the tunnel onto Sabol Field.
The Cannon Club originally began in 2005 as the Father’s Club. Coach Murphy was looking for a way to get dad’s involved with the program and to support his vision for the team. Soon many moms were just as involved and the name didn’t quite fit what was happening. In 2006, the group was renamed the Cannon Club and The Haverford School football program began a new tradition to honor one of its most ardent faculty supporters. The Cannon Club was named to recognize Donald G. Brownlow and his fifty-five(55!) years of teaching service to Haverford (1951-2006). Mr. Brownlow, “Brownie” to many, was a World War II Veteran and one of the first soldiers to land on Utah Beach on D-Day. Brownie was famous for starting each new

SPOTLIGHT ARTICLE: MIKE MAYOCK A TRIBUTE TO ONE OF HAVERFORD’S FINEST BY MICHAEL BRADLEY ’79 It had been more than 35 years, but that didn’t matter. Strong bonds endure. In 2010, Peter Unger ’74 and his family sat in the front of the meeting house, facing those who had come to pay tribute his father. Unger scanned the mourners and couldn’t believe who he saw. There was Mike Mayock, his Haverford football coach, sitting with Don McBride, former Haverford School Dean of Students and, at one time, an assistant to Mr. Mayock. “I was really touched,” says Unger. To Unger, it was a terrific tribute. But those who knew Mr. Mayock understand his presence was no surprise. His former players meant a lot to him, while he coached them and for decades after that. His player-coach relationship with Unger had blossomed into a friendship, and on that morning when Unger was relying on family and friends to buttress him, Mr. Mayock was there. Again. “Having a good man like Mike as part of my life was very important to me,” Unger says. “He was a great man, and I feel lucky to have been exposed to him. That’s why I value sports so much. It’s an opportunity to touch people and influence people.” During 26 years teaching and coaching at Haverford, Mr. Mayock had significant impacts on countless young men. He was the embodiment of the teacher-coach model that Haverford has cultivated for nearly 150 years. Mr. Mayock was a mentor. He was also a loyal friend. And he liked to have a good time. Mostly, he was a family man, a devoted, loving husband to Susanne and a dedicated father to Mike ’76, Molly, Mark ’80, Dan ’82, Peter ’83, Ellen, and Matt ’85. He delighted in his many grandchildren and liked nothing more than to sit back, beverage in hand, when the family congregated, and marvel at what he and Susanne had created. For Mr. Mayock, a life well-lived was about how successfully he had impacted people.
And his impact was immense.
*** Mike Mayock couldn’t believe it. His father had coached football in college. He had directed three different high school programs. And, yet, here he was, not sure he wanted to spend a day teaching offensive line play to a group of 8-to-10-year olds. Mike was running a football camp in the area, and one of his instructors was sick. So, he checked in with the best coach he knew. Could his dad fill in, teach the kids how to get in a stance and get them firing out after the snap? “I don’t know,” his father said. Mr. Mayock had a particular approach to coaching the line. The right approach. And he didn’t like the way linemen were taught to “block” at the time.
30
“I’m not going to teach them how to hold,” Mr. Mayock said. He helped out and did his customary excellent job. His high standards continued to guide his approach, just as they did from the minute he ran his first practice, at St. John’s School in Roxborough, in 1955. Later, his teams at Malvern and Haverford won or shared four Inter-Ac titles. His players learned the sport, developed as athletes and individuals, and came to love and respect the man who taught them about football and life. “Mr. Mayock was a man you didn’t want to disappoint,” says Peter Ziesing ’75. “He had such a great presence. He was a big person with a quiet voice and a great laugh. He wasn’t ever demeaning to any of his players.” Many people saw Mr. Mayock’s imposing frame and considered him an intimidating block of granite. But the simplistic view of him was wrong. He certainly wanted to win and was a fierce competitor who believed that hard work, commitment, and sound strategy were the hallmarks of successful teams and people. However, a game’s decision was a waystation on a journey that was more important than the win or loss. Learning the traits necessary to be successful in life was more important than any triumph. “He was very strict and businesslike,” says Ed DeSipio ’75. “He was steadfast and didn’t waver.” In 1955, Mr. Mayock graduated from Villanova, where he was a star end on the Wildcats’ 1954 team. The Pittsburgh Steelers chose him in the 24th round of the 1955 NFL Draft, but he decided against pursuing a professional career. Mr. Mayock spent the 1955 season at St. John’s, which closed early the next year. In the late summer of 1956, he began at Malvern.
During seven seasons at Malvern, Mr. Mayock posted a 34-23-1 record (16-12-1 in the Inter-Ac) and led the Friars to shares of league titles in 1959 and 1962. Although Malvern and Haverford have been fierce rivals on the gridiron – and beyond – over the years, Mr. Mayock retained an affection for the school and its players, many of whom were extremely loyal to him. One is John Toland, who played three years for Mr. Mayock before graduating in 1963 and whom Mr. Mayock taught Algebra I and II. Toland describes his coach as “fabulous and incredibly tough.” On the football field, order prevailed, and old-school rules applied. “He absolutely demanded hard work,” Toland says. “I don’t think we had a water bucket on the field for all the time I played for him. When I would go see him years later, I would kid him about that.” After he left Malvern, Mr. Mayock directed the offensive line and also helmed the sprint team at Penn. Hench Murray, who would later coach against Mr. Mayock while at Penn Charter from 1970-77, played on the Quakers’ lightweight squad and remembers trying to trim a few yards off the 100-yard sprints the players would have to run after practice. “[Mr. Mayock] would say, ‘If you’re going to run a sprint, run it the whole way,’” Murray says. “How simple is that? It changed the whole way I did things. It stuck with me.” When Mr. Mayock came to Haverford in

SPOTLIGHT ARTICLE: MIKE MAYOCK 1970, the Fords were two years removed from tying Episcopal for the Inter-Ac title. There was a lot of talent on the team, and the league was about to find out just how much. Over the next two seasons, Haverford went 16-0 and won a pair of championships. At the 1970 team’s first meeting it was evident Mr. Mayock wouldn’t have any trouble commanding the respect of his new charges. “When he walked into the room, he had everybody’s undivided attention,” says Jim Nesbitt ’73, a three-time all-league choice. “He was big and powerful, but he wasn’t mean. He just had a presence.” That powerful bearing manifested itself in the 1970 Fords, who began the season with a 14-12 win over Central, which later won the City Championship. Haverford romped past its other two non-league opponents before ripping Penn Charter, 40-7, in the Inter-Ac opener. There was no such rout the next week against Malvern, which had tied for the league title the previous year. A late touchdown run by Nesbitt gave the Fords a 7-6 victory. That was the last time any team would come within 15 points of Haverford over the next 11 games. The 1970 team was dominant, but the 1971 squad was a thresher. Haverford outscored Inter-Ac opponents, 194-26, and the starters rarely played in the fourth quarters of games. The Fords ran through everything in their path, including Malvern, a 35-6 victim. The Friars had decided to prevent star halfbacks John Haldeman ’72 and the late Russell Allen from getting around end and didn’t deploy a middle linebacker. So, Mr. Mayock began feeding the ball to fullback Peter Lindquist ’73, who finished with 250 yards. It was a textbook example of his strategic expertise and ability to deploy players perfectly. “Mr. Mayock, in terms of scheming and drawing up plays, was outstanding,” says Kevin Burke ’78, who played for Mr. Mayock in 1975 and 1976. “His trick was in maximizing the talent he had without pushing it to the point of injury.” Though he was stern and committed to the task before him, Mr. Mayock wasn’t without some whimsy. At halftime of the 1971 season finale against
32
Episcopal, a 40-7 Haverford rout, Haldeman and Allen went to him and asked if they could play in the fourth quarter – as offensive linemen. “I didn’t know how he let that happen,” Haldeman says. “We were shocked.” With Haldeman and Allen on the line, guards John Berringer ’72 and Bob McCafferty ’72 became running backs. They learned a couple plays, and late in the game, McCafferty broke loose. He had no one near him, and a touchdown seemed certain. Until he fumbled. “I get the ball, and all I see is the goal line, 40 yards away,” McCafferty says. “I thought, ‘This can’t be true.’ I was tickled pink. But at the 10-yard line, the ball goes shooting out of my arms. There was nobody near me. “Of course, I was held up for public ridicule.” The out-of-character gesture was Mr. Mayock’s way of acknowledging how dominant that team had
been. “It was a way for him to celebrate what we had done over the past two years,” Lindquist says. “It was a culmination.” Injuries and heavy graduation losses prevented the Fords from continuing their Inter-Ac domination in 1972 and 1973. But by 1974, Haverford was in contention again, and the next two seasons brought undeniable highlights, including a pair of wins over Episcopal, the second a 32-0 win in 1975, and a stirring, 28-27 triumph over Archbishop Carroll, the 1975 Catholic League Southern Division co-champ. But Malvern was the significant obstacle, and the Fords dropped a pair of close decisions to the Friars, including a crushing 21-16 road loss in the pouring rain in 1975. Among the standouts on those teams were John Clark ’76, DeSipio, Sam Clement ’76, Joe DeSimone ’76, and Mike Mayock Jr. Clark remembers Mr. Mayock as a great teacher – “He was in the right profession,” he says – and someone who rarely had to yell. One time he did was at halftime of the Penn Charter game in 1975. The Fords were losing, and Mr. Mayock threw the chalk against the blackboard in the meeting room. It splintered, and every player in the first row got hit with some shrapnel. “He told us, ‘Boys, football is a mean, rough game. If you want to play it, you have to be mean and rough. You guys are playing poorly, and if you want to win, you have to turn it up a notch or two,’” Clark says. “We went out and won the game [16-8].” Haverford slumped the following season to 3-5, and Mr. Mayock grew increasingly frustrated with his and his staff’s inability to bring boys to Haverford whom the Board and administrators would admit. Add in the daily stresses of raising seven children, and it was a lot to handle. Mr. Mayock decided to step away from his football coaching responsibilities after the 1976 campaign. “Some things didn’t go our way,” says John Trueman, Mr. Mayock’s long-time assistant coach, close friend, and former Director of Athletics at Haverford. “He told the Board what he wanted to do, but things didn’t change in terms of recruiting. I think he got tired of that.” Mr. Mayock stopped coaching football, but he
didn’t stop coaching. He directed the Middle School squash team for 20 years and had a 56-match winning streak at one point. He would set up in the coldest of Haverford’s four courts and show his charges how to “control the T,” as the middle part of the area between the two serving squares was called. “He didn’t give you anything on the court,” says Wistar Wood ’79, a member of the Hall of Fame 1978-79 squash team. “You had to earn it. “To move him off the T, you had to be accurate, powerful, and deceptive. If you didn’t do that, Mr. Mayock would punish you.” In addition to helping his players develop a physical, aggressive style of play, Mr. Mayock helped give squash some cachet within the athletic department. Nobody was going to deride the sport if he was ready to take on any interested party on the court. “Something about his presence in the squash program gave it relevance, and I always appreciated that,” Wood says. “He put squash on equal footing with other sports at Haverford.” Mr. Mayock was able to extend one of his other sporting enthusiasms – golf – into a coaching role, as well, when he took over the varsity golf team. His lieutenant was Ed Hallowell, the former chair of English department and presenter of the eponymous literary lecture series that brings renowned writers to the School. Hallowell was impressed by Mr. Mayock’s love of golf – “I’ve never seen anyone as passionate about it,” he says – and ability to connect with the boys on the team. “Mike commanded the same kind of enormous respect among the golfers as he did as coach of the football team,” Hallowell says. “The boys revered him. When he spoke to them before matches, he motivated them. He would tell them to go out have fun, do their best, and see how it worked out.” Mr. Mayock loved golf and squash, but nothing ignited his love of sports like football. Early in the 1983 season, with Haverford in the midst of a three-year, 1-25 run of gridiron futility and already 0-2 that year, then-Head of School Davis Parker decided to make a change at the top of the program. “The day after [the second loss], Dave Parker

SPOTLIGHT ARTICLE: MIKE MAYOCK came into my office and said he was going to ask Mike Mayock if he wanted to coach again,” says Trueman, then the Director of Athletics. “The layoff got Mike reenergized. He was ready to come back.” There was no magical turnaround, but the Fords played much better football. And on Oct. 29, Haverford scored a 21-16 upset win over Malvern, the first triumph over the Friars since the 1971 juggernaut battered all comers. It was particularly sweet for Mr. Mayock because his youngest child, Matt, was part of that team. Over the ensuing three-plus decades, Matt called his father every year on the date to re-live the
“The beauty of Mr. Mayock is that he knew how to give young men direction and discipline without ever yelling or shaming them,” says Henry Maguire ’75, who played for him in 1973 and 1974. “You wanted to do it for him and for the team.”

big win. “It was a really special time,” Matt says. “We were coming from losing a lot of football games. “He came back to coach and made us feel good about ourselves.” The Fords were 4-4 in 1984, but struggled the next few seasons. Mr. Mayock was enjoying himself, there was order and discipline within the program, and progress was being made. But the hole that had been dug in previous seasons proved too deep, and the commitment from the School was not sufficient to match those of Haverford’s Inter-Ac rivals. After the 1987 season, second-year Head of School Bo Dixon fired Mr. Mayock. It was a crushing blow for him and those who coached and played for him. His football coaching legacy remains one of his great successes – his overall record was 49-452, and he won two league titles. To him, coaching was teaching, and there were plenty of lessons to be imparted to the young men in his charge.

Maguire wasn’t exactly too enthusiastic about walking into his Haverford summer school math class in June 1970 a couple months before he would start Form II. He hadn’t wanted to go Haverford, but he ended up there So, he headed into the classroom in June for a little skill development – and got a big surprise. “I thought, ‘Holy cow! John Wayne is teaching math,’” Maguire says of Mr. Mayock. “He was the rock. He had on a short-sleeved dress shirt and a tie and never had to yell. He said, ‘Okay, boys, we’re going to learn some math.’ “He was a nice guy, but he didn’t tolerate any [stuff].” Maguire was one of the many Haverford students whose Algebra I foundations were built by Mr. Mayock’s straightforward classroom methods. He presented the material as directly as possible, assigned homework that reinforced the day’s lesson, tested students on what he had taught – with no uncomfortable surprises – and returned the papers the next day. Every time. Just as Mr. Mayock drilled his charges on the fundamentals as a coach, so too did he make sure his students would be able to handle the early steps on
their mathematical journeys. “He was a really good teacher because he was very clear,” says Gerry van Arkel ’79, P’14. “If you’re not clear with math, it gets fuzzy fast. I came away from his class thinking that I had learned a lot.” Because Maurice Glavin ’83, P’14 ’16 ‘20, came to Haverford in Form III, he didn’t have a chance to spend time in Mr. Mayock’s classroom. But his brothers did, and after one Middle School Parents’ Night, Glavin’s old-school father came home and announced
that he had met his favorite teacher. “Mr. Mayock had told parents that he gives tests Thursday, grades them that night and gives them back the next day,” says Glavin, Haverford’s Chair of the Board of Trustees. “Mr. Mayock said that if your son tells you he didn’t get the test back, he’s lying and probably didn’t do well.” Parents appreciated the no-nonsense approach – and that their children were learning math. Ira Thal attended summer school before starting as a sixth grader at Haverford in 1974. Thal is quick to report that Mr. Mayock “immediately commanded respect,”
but he was also extremely clear and effective. “He was born to be a teacher,” says Thal, who became Mr. Mayock’s physician the last year-plus of his life. “Anyone you come across will tell you that. He was very fair, and I absolutely have the memory of his taking us through a little red book of word problems. He’d go through it step by step with us.” That approach impressed Ted Peters ’68, a former Chair of the Board of Trustees who also taught in the Haverford Middle School from 1972-76. His classroom was next door to Mr. Mayock’s, and the two became friendly colleagues who played tennis and squash against each other. Peters remembers Mr. Mayock’s structured lessons and ability to make sure the students worked to their potentials. “Mike was a tremendous teacher,” Peters says. “He was a very disciplined teacher. The kids came in and worked hard. I remember talking to him once and being impressed that if a kid was lagging, he was very committed to getting him back up to speed.” Sometimes, it helped to have a coach of several teams as a teacher, especially on warm days. Van Arkel remembers that during his time in Form II, he and his classmates would often return to the classroom from lunch dirty, sweaty, and disheveled after raucous games of Crossbee (the sport invented at Haverford that involved trying to shoot a frisbee into a lacrosse goal), or touch football. “He might admonish us,” van Arkel says. “But he had a smile on his face. He was glad we were doing it. He was the father of many sons and an athletic guy. “But within four seconds, we were in study mode.” You expected something else? *** It doesn’t take long after one meets Haldeman to feel his intensity. His gaze is steady and strong. He continues to boast a halfback’s frame, even in his late 60s. And he addresses people directly and with little nonsense. That’s why it’s so fun to imagine him and Mr. Mayock spending a couple hours on a squash court, trying to smash the ball past each other and turning a “gentleman’s game” into a full contact sport.

SPOTLIGHT ARTICLE: MIKE MAYOCK “We beat the [crap] out of each other,” Haldeman says. “If we had a really good point that lasted a while, one of us would just start laughing. We had so much fun.” Haldeman and his wife Sue became close friends with the Mayocks. They babysat the Mayock kids at times, and when the Haldemans’ first child died at an early age, the Mayocks provided tremendous support. “Coach was just solid as a rock in all aspects of his life,” Haldeman says. “He was that way as a friend, whether it was good times or bad times. “Sue and I learned a lot from [the Mayocks’] relationship, how they treated each other, and the respect they had for each other.” Mr. Mayock brought the same solid principles to his friendships as he did to his roles as coach and teacher. He was loyal. Caring. He was a terrific mentor and always willing to support those who needed a boost. Malvern’s Toland remembers Mr. Mayock encouraging him during his college years, and during Toland’s time in the Marines. “He was always there for me,” says Toland, who met his wife, Carol, on a double date with Mr. and Mrs. Mayock. “He was a go-to person for me. You need that person in your life.” Sure, he was a principled, sturdy force, but he loved to have a good time. When he was coaching at Haverford, he and Susanne would welcome the Fords’ assistants and often other Inter-Ac coaches to their house in Wynnewood for parties after games. There was music – “He would always break into song, and he had a beautiful voice,” Dick Nesbitt ’70, says – and jokes, and things rarely broke up early. “One time, we were at his house, and it was really getting late,” Hench Murray says. “I lived in Abington, and I said, ‘I think we have to get going.’ He literally put me back in my seat and said, ‘you aren’t going anywhere.’” Because John Trueman coached with Mr. Mayock during both of his tenures at Haverford, he had many fun evenings at the Mayock house. “Mike was a family friend. He knew our kids, and he was as loyal as could be. If you wanted someone to be your friend, he was what you would want.” And if you wanted someone to be your golf
36
partner, Mr. Mayock was your man – so long as you wanted to play early. Really early. As Ed Hallowell says, Mr. Mayock loved golf. When he didn’t have to teach, he headed to Coatesville Country Club and wanted to be the first one off the tee every day – between 5:30 and 6 a.m. “His nickname was ‘The Ghost,’” says Lindquist, who was also a member at Coatesville. “He would be done playing before anybody else started.” After he retired, he would spend a couple months each winter down in North Carolina with his brother Dick, playing every day down there. He had fun playing golf, but his competitive side often emerged. Unger recalls playing a match with Mr. Mayock, Dan Mayock, and Tom Wheelock, who was a one-time assistant lacrosse coach at Haverford. Mr. Mayock hadn’t played particularly well, but on the 18th hole, he rolled in a six-footer to clinch the match – and was euphoric, even though not a penny changed hands. “You would have thought he had won the Super Bowl,” Unger says. “I loved that. He was so competitive. Mr. Mayock’s relationships with his former players went well beyond the golf course. He would have lunch with them, see them at social functions, or at games at Haverford School. He would often try to get them to call him, “Mike,” to no avail. “I told him, you can ask me to call you ‘Mike’ all you want, but you will always be ‘Mr. Mayock’ to me,” Berringer says. “He was a force of nature.” In March 2019, Maguire and Ziesing took Mr. Mayock to lunch at his favorite spot, the Flying Pig, in Malvern. “He walked into that place, and it was like 1975 again,” Maguire says. “He moved a little slower, but he still had that presence.” The three men talked football and life, and when they parted, the two former Fords were delighted for the opportunity and impressed with Mr. Mayock’s recall and love of the time he spent as their coach. “He remembered plays from when we played for him, including the down and yardage,” Maguire says. “It was incredible.” Haverford’s Director of Athletics Mike Murphy P’20 took over as Haverford’s football coach in 2005,
and he was impressed by what everybody else would say about Mr. Mayock. “I heard so many things, and I wanted to emulate him,” Murphy says. “When I met him, I found out they were all true.”
Murphy was one of the engines behind the creation of the Susanne and Michael Mayock Family Scholarship, which is awarded to a football player of significant talent at Haverford, who also shines in the classroom and has high character and integrity. “Mr. Mayock always felt his wife was part of his legacy,” Murphy says. And in 1997, former players from Malvern and Haverford came together to create the Michael F. Mayock Distinguished Teacher-Coach Award, which rotates throughout the Inter-Ac schools and is given to someone who exemplifies Mr. Mayock’s commitment to students and athletes. In 2016, Murphy won it, and Mr. Mayock presented it to him. “To have Coach Mayock present that to me was a high point of my career,” Murphy says. *** As 2020 neared its close, it became clear that Mr. Mayock needed more help with his daily routine than he could get at Bellingham. So Dr. Thal suggested that he might want to consider living with one of his children, in order to get some more attentive care. That was on a Friday morning. Later that day, he was in Lexington, Va., settling in with Ellen and her family. “We weren’t giving him a chance to change his mind,” Dan says.
Mr. Mayock spent a little more than a month in Lexington before dying, but he cherished the opportunity to be with his daughter and to see two of his grandchildren. “One time he said, ‘I’m so grateful for the life I’ve had, but I miss your mother [who died in 2017], and I wish she were here the last three years to see how everything developed. You kids are great,’” Ellen says. While he was with Ellen and her family, Mr. Mayock reflected on what he and Susanne had built. He was a proud patriarch at rest, rather than a father dealing with life’s day-to-day challenges. “I would take him to the doctor, and he’d spend all his time talking about his family,” Ellen says. No matter how much Mr. Mayock accomplished as a coach and teacher or how many lives he touched as a friend and mentor, he was always, at his core, a family man. He and Susanne watched as their children became parents and put the lessons they learned to use every day. There can be nothing more rewarding than that. “We were down the shore one time, with a lot of the grandkids running around, and we were having a cocktail,” Mike says. “He was shaking his head and smiling. I asked him, ‘What are you thinking?’ He said, ‘If Sue and I knew we would be responsible for all these people, we never would have had you.’ “I think what he was saying was that he and mom were 22, 23 years old, and had they thought about all of this and how daunting it was, it would have scared them. But they were very pragmatic, hard-working people who had a set of ethics and morals that they were going to live every day.” There wasn’t room for corner-cutting in the Mayock household. You went to school. Every day. There were no sick days. In the summer, you worked. There were food and clothes, but the kids were on their own for the extras. The older children looked after their younger siblings. “One of my main childhood memories was of a well-oiled machine at bedtime and their trying to get seven kids bathed every night,” Molly says. “One of them would have two kids in the tub at a time, with the other getting the clothes off the next in line and

SPOTLIGHT ARTICLE: MIKE MAYOCK then getting towels and pajamas for whoever got out of the tub.” The extras that some of their classmates had – especially at Haverford or Agnes Irwin, where Molly went – were out of the question. “We understood that Christmas at our house was not the same as it was at our best friends’ houses, and that was okay,” Matt says. Hard work was the baseline expectation. So was doing what was right, no matter what. When Molly was a senior at AIS, she took part in the school’s annual senior cut day and headed to the beach in Atlantic City with her classmates. She had a great time, but she contracted sun poisoning. “My parents knew I didn’t get burned like that at lacrosse practice,” Molly says. Her parents made her go to Anne Lenox, then the school’s head, “and tell on myself.” To her credit, Lenox told Molly that her “punishment” was to walk from her house in Wynnewood to Suburban Square in Ardmore that Saturday and buy herself something. She even gave her 10 bucks to do so. “I left the house and went to the movies,” Molly says. “That’s how strict my parents were. They didn’t care what anybody else did.” The Mayock children all have stories of their parents’ unyielding principles and tremendous devotion to them. But they also have plenty of funny tales, too. Ellen tells about the time she accompanied her parents into the city to see the Philadelphia Orchestra. Mr. Mayock wasn’t too thrilled about the opportunity, but he went. “I remember him asking me, ‘When’s halftime?’” Ellen says, laughing. “I said, ‘They call it intermission, Dad.’” All remember how their father cooked, gardened, and ran the household when Susanne was working. And he was a pretty good cook, too. More than that, he had an abiding love for Susanne and a willingness to help her live as full a life as possible. “They were very much a team,” Ellen says. “I think my dad learned a ton as mom evolved as a woman and a professional. He picked up the slack.” Haldeman believes their union was unique. “They were equals,” he says. “They were way ahead of their time in terms of their relationship.” Mr. Mayock had many roles. He taught. He

coached. He raised a family. He was a devoted husband. A loyal friend. A wise mentor. His impact on his family was profound, and his influence on the Haverford School community endures today. “He was as good a dad as you could ever ask for, as solid a mentor as you could ever wish for, and he affected the lives of more young men through the coaching and teaching professions than you could ever imagine,” Mike says. Try to find a better tribute than that. Then try to find a better man. You won’t.
