He coached at Highland Park, Hayden, Topeka West, Rossville and Washburn Rural, and was the Scots’ first coach in the early 1990s. Cowdin also founded the Topeka Golden Giants and Rossville Rattlers summer semi-pro teams. Cowdin’s No. 14 was retired by both the Rattlers and Golden Giants. Cowdin, a graduate of Topeka West and Washburn, coached 29 players drafted by major-league franchises.
