Welcome our newest Varsity Softball Head Coach!

February 13th, 2008

Riverside Community,

Please join me in congratulating Kristy Nowak! She is our newest head coach for the Varsity Girls Softball team. She wants to be a coach that every student-athlete will know, not just a small group. There will be no divisive elitism: the squad will train, win, and play together. That way everyone succeeds.

I have no doubt that her passion and enthusiasm for the sport will motivate all our players and help them to really enjoy the sport. I am confident Kristy will give the program the impetus it needs to take its place as a home for top level players.

Please give Kristy a warm welcome!

GO CUBS!
