Thank You Coach

Body
Last Friday the Cross Country community was dealt a hefty blow with the passing of long-time Nebraska Christian head coach Scott Johnson. Coach Johnson was known and well respected for his kind heart and love of the sport, but it was his love of God that was his true passion. We send our love to the Johnson family and all Coach Johnson’s former athletes.
