The Wisconsin public university where Dan Olson, father of Savannah Bananas star Jackson Olson, played basketball. Dan’s own college sporting career began a family pattern: sport taken seriously but shared generously. He later worked for Rawlings presenting Gold Glove awards, and coached Jackson’s baseball teams in Connecticut with a philosophy of treating every young player exactly the same.
