COACH OF THE YEAR

Kaitlyn Bernard, Falmouth Nordic: In her fourth year as head coach, Bernard helped Falmouth end a three-year reign by Mt. Blue at the Class A Nordic state championships. The Yachtsmen edged Mt. Blue by two points in the two-day competition at Stark’s Hill in Fryeburg. “We had a good, solid team all year,” said Bernard, who moved up from the middle school program just as Falmouth was wrapping up a four-year title run. “Our eighth, ninth and 10th skiers are all really close, so I feel really good about next year.”
