(Packers Release) - The Green Bay Packers have announced that Derek Boldt of Augusta High School has been named the Green Bay Packers High School Coach of the Week.

Boldt, in his fourth year as head coach of the Beavers, has his team out to a 6-0 start this season. After going 0-6 on the field last year, Boldt and his team have turned things around and look to remain undefeated as they take on Blair-Taylor this Friday.  

While Boldt is happy with the progress on the field, he is even more proud of the work that his team is doing off the field. Boldt and his staff instill the motto "The Little Things Matter," and his team has taken it to heart.

"One of our athletes this year lost their home to a fire," Boldt said. "It was an apartment. The building below was also a total loss. The kids came up with the idea to put together a fundraiser this summer during our 7-on-7 league. It was a huge success and a majority of the town showed up to support the tenants and the business owner. Another example, just yesterday I received a card in the mail from a lady I know. She lives on a small hobby farm and the place had gotten kind of overgrown. We had about 10 of our kids go out there and clean up a whole bunch of brush. She called one of our coaches and told her that she hadn't cried in thirty plus years, but she cried because of how nice the kids treated her and all the work they did for her in clearing out all the brush around the outbuildings and she was just incredibly proud to live in this community. I'm blessed to have some amazing kids to work with."

Boldt and his staff oversee a program of 35 players. In addition to coaching, Boldt is also sixth grade math and science teacher at Augusta Middle School.
