Assistant Coach Rob Erickson Picks Up Pair of Post-Season Honors

Assistant Coach/Defensive Coordinator Rob Erickson was recently named as the WIAC Assistant Coach of the Year by the Wisconsin Football Coaches Association.

It is the second-straight year that the Pioneers have had the WIAC Assistant Coach of the Year selection as defensive line coach Phil Micech earned the honor in 2010.

He also was named as the UW-Platteville Co-Assistant Coach of the Year on Tuesday at the UW-Platteville Athletic Honors Banquet.

In 2011, he developed four all-WIAC selections that helped lead the Pioneer defense to the top defense in the redzone, second in rushing, scoring and total defense.
