Scott Sekelsky has been named women's cross country co-head coach at UW-River Falls according to Athletic Director Rick Bowen.

Sekelsky joins Keven Syverson, the newly named men's and women's head coach.  Both replace Don Glover who resigned in January after six seasons of coaching.

"I am very grateful to Coach Syverson for giving me the opportunity to lead the women's team. I learned a lot as an assistant to Don Glover the past two seasons and look forward to utilizing that knowledge to advance the women's program," Sekelsky said.

"I have known Scott for 10 years and I am happy he is joining the staff as I have no doubt he will do a great job on the women's side in his expanded role and I look forward to working with Scott," said Syverson.

Sekelsky has spent the last two seasons as an assistant coach for the Falcon cross country program. He ran cross country for UWRF from 1996-98 and was the team's captain in his senior season. He has had extensive coaching experience at various area high schools including River Falls and Baldwin-Woodville. He is currently entering his second season as the distance track coach at St. Croix Central High School.
