Matt Bixby
Bethlehem girls basketball head coach
Residence: Glenmont
With this being basketball season, it’s been a lot of pump up music. It’s been a lot of Linkin Park, OneRepublic and Imagine Dragons. The first channel that always comes on my TV is ESPN.
Most of what I read is going to be mysteries and thrillers. A lot of David Baldacci and Michael Connelly. I think the last movie I went to was “The Hunger Games 3.” Playing golf. I’ll probably spend most of my spring and summer playing. I’m about an 18 handicap. Mike Krzyzewski. I think he’s just an incredible inspiration, just an incredible leader, and honestly I would want to meet him because of the person he is off the court … because he’s such a motivating person. If I have to pick a dinner guest, I’d have to say President Barack Obama. I’d love to know what he has to go through on a day-to-day basis. Probably when I first got hired at Bethlehem because it was just a huge step forward in my career. I probably would bring a book, a knife and I would bring my family photo album. Augusta (National) because it is probably the most famous, most beautiful golf course in America. With all due respect to Pebble Beach, I would probably have to pick Augusta. My dream vacation would be to go to Australia, see the Great Barrier Reef, the Gold Coast, going to the Outback and all of that. For some reason, I’ve always been fascinated about going there, going to the other side of the world. I was valedictorian of my college class.
