Class Note 2000

It’s most likely that as you read this, reunion weekend has come and gone. I hope you enjoyed meeting up back at the College on the Hill and reconnecting with fellow classmates. Please send any fun stories my way!

In classmate news, I was thrilled when I heard that Marshall Hyzdu was moving to Cincinnati, as I could use a fellow ’00 friend in the Queen City. Back in January Marshall was named president of Archbishop Moeller High School. After a successful career in brand management, where he most recently served as VP of commercial marketing at Bridgestone, with previous marketing leadership roles at Valvoline and Kraft Foods, Marshall decided to return to his alma mater and give back to the school that gave him so much. As a Catholic school in the Marianist tradition, Archbishop Moeller High School is a Christ-centered community, focusing on faith formation, academic achievement, individual growth and service to others. “Moeller laid the foundation for who I am as a husband, father, son and brother and the opportunity to come back and play even the smallest role in laying a similar foundation is invaluable,” he says. As president Marshall essentially serves as the CEO of the school, developing the short- and long-term vision for building the Moeller brand, and as principal he oversees the operations related to academics, athletics and the arts. “Every day I wake up with the mission of helping young men become their best selves. I love it!” Marshall and his wife, Sara, who started a consulting firm called Exceleration Coaching, are the proud parents of sons James (2) and Teddy (1). Welcome back to Cincy, Hyzdu family!
