Kenneth Mast coached four sports at Bluffton, football, basketball, track and golf from 1951 to 1967. While many men have coached at Bluffton, he seemed to have that special gift of establishing rapport with his players and getting them to work to their fullest potential.
Commenting on his years at Bluffton, Mast stated, “Bluffton was a way of life for me and my family. Aside from the many thrilling victories and championships we shared at Bluffton, the thrill of assisting a dedicated faculty and being able to touch the lives of scores of students can never be measured.”
Mast also contributed as head pro golfer at Lost Creek Country Club in Lima, Ohio. From building the Bluffton golf course to playing golf in many tournaments, Mast’s name and Bluffton have been wide spread throughout Ohio.
For a time time Mast was the winningest coach in football and track at Bluffton. He started the Bluffton golf program and was the coach of Bluffton’s basketball championship team in 1964.
