AFC wants to congratulate Coach Cissna on his 26 years of service to AFC baseball, 25 of them as the head coach. He started his coaching career as an assistant coach at Northern Illinois University and was able to end his regular season career coaching the AFC Raiders to a 12-2 win over Polo at Northern Illinois University's baseball field. What a perfect ending to a great career! You will be missed on the baseball field Coach Cissna!
