Coach Nicole Gurney will no
longer be with EKSC after January 31st.Nicole starts student/teaching at St. Mary’s
Elementary, the school of her choice, February 1st.
Unfortunately, the hours required for student/teaching will not
allow Nicole to attend workouts & meets. She will be
missed by the swimmers and staff. I appreciate Nicole’s
contribution to EKSC this season and wish her luck as she pursues
her career. Nicole and I have talked about working for EKSC
in the future, once she finishes her teaching degree. Thanks
Nicole!
