在周三的校园新闻发布会上, Georgetown College announced 杰夫镍 of Shawnee State University as the new women’s basketball head coach.
“It’s a great day in Tiger athletics as we welcome Coach 杰夫镍 to the athletic staff and hand him the reins of our women’s basketball program,” said Vice President of 体育运动 Brian Evans. “我们有人可以领导这个项目, 不仅仅是为了提高竞争力, 但是这样我们才能赢得冠军.”
在过去的八年里, Nickel has served as head coach of the women’s basketball team at Shawnee State University in Portsmouth, 俄亥俄州. 在尼克尔的领导下, the SSU women’s college basketball program has achieved the highest winning percentage in 俄亥俄州.
尼克在SSU的任期, 他的母校, had a 78-percent winning percentage with an overall record of 214-60. In the Mid-South Conference, SSU was 95-32, a 75-percent winning percentage. The Bears won five conference 之旅nament crowns and one regular-season title.
“The foundation is here, and the talent is here,” Nickel said. “I look forward to hitting the ground running and getting Georgetown 回来 to national 之旅naments on a regular basis. That’s our goal, and that’s what we’re going to do.”
Georgetown College’s women’s basketball program began in 1972. 在最初的几个赛季里, the team had five different coaches until Susan Johnson became the staple of the program, 执教近32个赛季. In the past four years, the Tigers achieved a record of 46-62. 在2018-19赛季, 这支球队以15连胜开局, the most consecutive wins to start a season, and advanced to the national 之旅nament for the first time in four years.
