While I was not personally a member of the crew team, I remember seeing Coach Nik around campus and hearing of him from friends who did crew. I'm sure many of you will also be quite saddened by his sudden, tragic passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all of his student rowers, past and present, at Simmons.

President Lynn Perry Wooten shares the news of the passing of Coach Kurmakov, a beloved coach, mentor and friend known for his tremendous work ethic and kind spirit.
