Well, we have 27 varsity sports and 26 head coaches as of today - student athletes in (very) minor sports report in about two weeks and the ladies do not have a coach - seems to be a tough slot to fill - Hopefully Kit is finalizing details with someone to take over

Well, last time I checked W tennis was one of our (supposed) 27 D.1 teams and I can guess there are frosh and returning players looking around for a coach - is it that tough to find a local pro who wants to make some additional $ with a part time gig ?

Babson hired a local pro to be an Associate HC over the weekend. www.babsonathletics.com/sports/m-tennis/2022-23/releases/20220825uifqbg |

We're holding out for a school principal, judge or surgeon.

I’m holding out for hc87😊 Appreciate the nomination....unforunately due to school/travel, it is an untenable for me to take the position now...maybe in retirement. Not a Principal though, will that exclude me from an interview?  |

Our "national search" for a new coach started last May 31. Why is there not a coach on the roster (which still features the bio of our former coach)? Has the retired coach agreed to stay on until a replacement is found? Is there a team chaperone rather than a coach? Is the search being conducted on foot? Do candidates expect to actually get paid?  So many questions...  |

I bet if they converted the tennis team into a pickleball team they would find a coach.

Would not shock me if the prior coach is helping out during the pendency of the national search. He’s in the area as the superintendent of Oxford schools.

That is nice to hear, but why the delay of over 3 months...and counting?

There is only one Bob Chesney...and HC has him (at least for now).

'Anyone' will likely be an improvement of the status quo which we endured for the last 2 decades - the new coach speaks of improving the program, well, we're starting at the bottom so let's hope better results are coming

If the coaches have teaching skills they don't have to hang around the office wing of the Luth 40 hours a week. Some of the workers there are probably working on their outside gigs from their desks anyway.

Last weekend our 9 seeded men’s team was shut out by no.8 Lafayette in the PL tourney - both is these matchups happen literally every year - we do have a new coach but will there be any change ?
