Glogowski completed his eighth and final season as Simpson's head coach in 2015. The 32nd head coach in program history, Glogowski went of 37-43 during his career and left with the second-most wins in school history. The Storm went 4-6 in Glogowski's final season before he resigned to become the defensive coordinator at NCAA Division II Minnesota State University.

In 2012 he added the role of defensive coordinator in addition to his head coaching duties.

Glogowski and the Storm had a memorable 2013 campaign that saw Simpson go 7-3 overall and 5-2 in the Iowa Conference. The Storm finished in sole possesion of second place in the league, showing a flair for the dramatic throughout the season. Simpson won five games when trailing or tied in the fourth quarter or overtime and boasted the league's offensive MVP in quarterback, Taylor Nelson. Simpson moved into a tie for first in the conference with a dramatic 50-46 win over Dubuque in Week 8, but a last-second touchdown by Buena Vista in Week 9 moved the Storm to second.

Glogowski and the Storm started the 2012 season 5-1, including wins over rivals Wartburg (20-19) and Central (21-18). Simpson suffered a three-game skid in the middle of the season, but closed the year with a win over Luther to give Simpson its best finish since 2008 and finish in a tie for second in the Iowa Conference standings. Five players were named first team all-conference, wide receiver/returner Brad Vogel earned First Team All-West Region honors and linebacker Mark Cronin finished the season as an Academic All-American. Three of Simpson's four losses were by a combined 16 points

After starting the 2011 season 0-3, the Storm won five of their last seven games. Included in the run was a thrilling 38-37 overtime win over then-No. 19 Wartburg in Waverly. Simpson made up a 17-point fourth-quarter deficit in the win, its first over Wartburg since 1997.

In his debut season of 2008, Glogowski delivered the first winning season in four years, as the Storm posted a 7-3 record in finishing third in the conference. The seven wins marked the most by a Simpson first-year head coach since Lloyd Dean led Simpson to a 7-3 record in 1931, as Simpson posted the best total offense and total defense in the Iowa Conference.

Glogowski came to Simpson from the University of South Dakota, where he spent four seasons with the Coyotes. From 2006 to 2007, Glogowski served as the team’s defensive coordinator, guiding Division II’s fifth-best run defense in 2006. Prior to joining the South Dakota staff, Glogowski was the defensive coordinator and recruiting coordinator at Allegheny College (Pa.) from 2001-03. From 2000 to 2001, Glogowski was special teams coordinator and outside linebacker coach at Clarion University (Pa.). Prior to that he was special teams coordinator and inside linebacker coach at Allegheny from 1998-2000, a graduate assistant at Augustana College (S.D.) in 1997-98 and a student assistant at South Dakota in 1996.

A four-year starter for the Coyotes at strong safety and linebacker, Glogowski earned Don Hansen Football Gazette All-America Honors in 1995 after a season in which he had 91 tackles, 21 tackles for loss, 5.5 quarterback sacks and an interception. He was also voted the North Central Conference Most Valuable Defensive Back in 1995. He earned All-Conference honors in 1995 and was honorable mention All-Conference in 1993 and 1994.
