Congratulations to Will Congram
CRI Boys Varsity Head Coach
|
It is with great pleasure we announce Will Congram as our Boys Varsity Head Coach. Unanimously recommended by the boys varsity search committee, Will has enthusiastically accepted the position and we are very excited to see him build upon the remarkable success of the novice boys.
Will brings a unique approach to coaching. He employs his own extensive rowing experiences, principles of mindfulness and body awareness taught in yoga and his understanding of sports psychology. Will's coaching emphasizes developing the whole person.
We wish Will and all the boys of the varsity squad great success together.
