Able to lift toddlers- Just who is Captain Springfield?
It’s Matt Simpson, Springfield native, co-founder of 5 Pound Apparel, a director at Ozarks Technical Community College, and a Political Science alumni. While we are, of course, disappointed in Missouri State University President’s Smart’s showing, I’m sure Clif takes solace in the fact that he was ultimately defeated by a fellow PLS major.
For the full story, see Captain Springfield. And if you really have nothing to do, get an in-depth, behind-the-scene look at the Captain Springfield phenomenon at Captain Chronicles.
But when all is said and done, Captain Springfield pales by comparison to the other Matt Simpson news that was reported earlier this week – Grants to Schools. $246,370 to Springfield schools from the Back to School grants program. Now that’s something to be proud of! Congratulations, Matt.
