American Tom Donnelly of Haverford College in Pennsylvania, USA always throws away his coaching awards.

According to a New York Times story, Coach Donnelly has won 62 regional and conference championships, 113 all-Americans and 24 individual N.C.A.A. champions in his 34-year tenure at Haverford, one of America’s smallest liberal-arts colleges.

He told NYT: “I don't want any of those trophies. I appreciate the gesture, but a coaching award distracts from the essence of a coach's job, which is to educate the students.”
