I am very pleased to announce that Matt Dunlap of Farmington, Maine, will
be our new assistant coach for skiing and cross country.

Matt is a graduate of Bates College where he competed for four years in
cross country, skiing, and track & field. Matt was a team captain for
both the cross country team and the skiing team during his senior year.

A stand-out skier for the Bobcats, Matt excelled in cross country,
qualifying twice for the NCAA Cross Country National Championship. He set
his 8 km CC PR at the NCAA Regional Championship during his senior year,
qualifying for nationals in a time of 25:13.

Matt successfully coached high school cross country, skiing, and track &
field following his time at Bates. Matt’s outgoing personality,
dedication to student-athletes, and commitment to excellence in sport will
be great assets to our program.

Matt will arrive in Fairbanks in early August and begin his duties at UAF
immediately.  –SJ
