A Note to All

This is especially to my athletes from BU, but also to those of you that might be reading this who I haven't been able to communicate with.  For those that don't know, I have accepted an Assistant Coaching position at the University of Virginia to coach the jumps and multis.  I will be starting there as soon as I return to the State so I won't have a lot of time in Boston.  While this is a great opportunity for me to be much closer to home and to work with and for some great people, it wasn't an easy decision.  I have developed so many great relationships with people within the BU community and in Boston in general, and have some of the most dedicated athletes that a coach could ever hope for, so it will be incredibly difficult to leave all of you.  I have received lots of great notes from some of you and I can't let you know how much they have meant to me as I am so happy that you have all realized how much I love this sport and how much I have enjoyed helping you all develop as athletes, students, and most importantly, individuals.  Because I have stepped down, my BU email has been shut off and I have been asked to let all further communication be handled through the BU coaching staff, which I totally understand and respect.  I wanted to let you all know about these developments so you don't think that I am trying to leave Boston without contacting any of you.  As always, if you guys need anything, I am always here to help in any way that I can.
