Meet Wayne Grube


Though he's no relation, Wayne Grube (pictured above) is named in honor of the late, great Easton High School football coach and Northampton County Council member. Like his namesake, Wayne is very active in youth sports. He coaches for the Bethlehem Steelers, as well as North Central and Northwest Little League organizations.



Grube, along with fellow coaches Bob Hock and Mike Richline, spent Holy Saturday getting a baseball field behind the Steelers' complex ready for baseball. Sons Matthew Grube and Andrew Hock, both pitched in.

  1. Guys like these deserve a lot of praise. Without them kids would spend ALL their time gaming and texting. The real shame is kids don't play sports, or even just outside, on their own just for fun anymore.

    Still thanks again to these guys and all the others that coach, umpire and do all the dirty jobs so kids stay active.

  2. I agree completely, Bill. Coach Grube is one of the selfless guys who spent 4 long afternoons every week during football season, working with the boys. I never spoke to him, not even once, during any of the three years he was involved in coaching Dat bc I see how some parents and grandparents just hound those guys. But I really appreciate what he and so many other adults do for these young men and women.

  3. If the guy can waste millions of taxpayer dollars, we should name a park after him!

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
