Swofford was a long time head football coach at Wentzville Holt High School from 1986 to 1998.

During his first year at Washington University, the team earned its only NCAA playoff appearance in its history.

His wife, Runa Swofford, worked at Timberland and years ago purchased a bell in her husband's name.

The tradition of ringing that bell after football victories continues today.
