Central High School and UW-La Crosse will both honor coach Mike Anderson at their respective home games Friday and Saturday — both at Roger Harring Stadium at Veterans Memorial Field Sports Complex — as Anderson begins his 50th season coaching football. Central will honor ‘Coach A' when it faces Onalaska at 7 p.m. Friday. Anderson started coaching in La Crosse at Central in 1981 before becoming head coach in 1987. Anderson led the then-Red Raiders to five straight conference championships over seven seasons.
