Coaches

<p>I see where the Womens Baskeball Team hired a new asst. coach. Good coaches are falling like dominos at Kings Point. There are less than 60 days until winter sports kick in, any word (official not rumor) as to the Wrestling coach dilemma? Any idea when an Official Announcement will be issued?</p>

<p>I do not know when a new coach is starting. Sue Petersen Lubow, the Director of Athletics works her tail off to provide the Academy and the Midshipmen the best coaches she can find (and afford). It is not easy to hire coaches in one of the highest cost of living areas (Nassau County) on Long Island. Some of the coaches are now federal employees, while others are paid through different parts of her budget. Based on my experience with Sue, she most likely has it handled.</p>

<p>No kidding?? Thank you for your non answer. You could have either not responded or just left it at your first sentence of "I don't know when a new coach is starting." I am born and raised in the NY area and I know the cost of living. Wrestling is under the Federal Employee criteria which apparently means better compensation. Fact: since the implementation of the new Fed guidlines coaches have "fallen like dominos". I have respect for Sue Lubow and have faith that she will handle the situation as professionally as possible. My question once again is, "has there been any word (official not rumor) as to the wrestling coach dilemma?" and 2. Is there any idea when an official announcement will be issued? If you know then your answer is appreciated, if you don't know then your response is useless.</p>
