While attending North Penn High School, Stan participated in football, winter and spring track.  He earned six varsity letters.  In his sophomore year during football practice he sustained a kidney injury sidelining him for the remainder of the football season and winter track season.  In the spring, he earned a varsity letter on the track team.  Stan ran in multiple events including the 100 yard, 220 yard, 440 yard and 880 yard relay and mile relay.  He also earned varsity letters in his junior and senior years in track.  Under the great coaching of legendary, Jim Gulick, his junior year team won the 1973 Bux-Mont Championship and was undefeated.  Stan started on the football team as a running back his junior and senior years. He was the leading rusher on the team both years.  As a junior he ran a kick-off back for a 98 yard touchdown against Abington and in his senior year he ran a kick off back for an 85 yard touchdown against Perkiomen Valley.  In his senior year, he was Bux-Mont all league first team offense and was the leading scorer in the Bux-Mont league.  He also played in the 1974 Montgomery County All-Star Football game.

After high school Stan received a football scholarship to attend the University of Rhode Island where he played for three years.  Unfortunately, due to a serious concussion, he was forced to give up football his senior year.  Stan earned a finance degree from URI in 1978.

Stan is currently a co-owner at a local Real Estate company that specializes in the development and management of multifamily housing.  When time permits, he is at Indian Valley Country Club working on his golf game.

Stan lives in Montgomery Township and is most proud of his children and son-in-law who also attended North Penn High School and played sports.  Jaclyn Geiger Thomas (daughter) Class of 2005 played field hockey and lacrosse. Daniel Geiger (son) Class of 2008 played basketball. Zachary Thomas (son-in-law) Class of 2002 played football, winter/spring track, and was recently inducted into the North Penn Athletic Hall of Fame with the 2002 Spring Track Team.

He would like to thank Don Ryan, Athletic Director for not only mentoring and supporting him throughout his high school years but also his children through their high school years.

Stan is honored to become a member of the North Penn Athletic Hall of Fame.  He is thankful to remain in touch with close friends from North Penn High School.
