Assistant Coach: Oliver Burruss

I'm pleased to announce that we've hired Oliver Burruss as our new assistant coach. Ollie was Harvard's top male skier for the past few years before graduating last spring with a BA in History. He served as Harvard captain for the past two years, earned Academic All-American honors in 2007 and 2008, and was named Harvard Skier of the Year for the 2007-2008 season. He also worked as an assistant coach and wax tech for the Massachusetts team at the Eastern High School Championships in 2007 and 2008.


I'm thrilled to have Ollie joining us - he's a true student of the sport and he's excited to be starting his professional coaching career with Bowdoin. He'll be arriving on campus in late September - I'm looking forward to working with him!

Just wanted to say how pumped I am to be on board as a coach this season. Train hard and keep the rubber side down - I'll see everyone in the fall.
