鈥淚 am very pleased to bring Jeremy on as 91精选鈥檚 next head golf coach,鈥 Hanna said. 鈥淛eremy and I have been exploring this possibility over the last several weeks and I am excited that he has agreed to lead this impressive group of student-athletes.

Bialek brings a wealth of experience into this position. He spent the last 25 years as a coach, starting as a high school assistant and working his way into the college ranks.

Throughout his career, he has coached hundreds of athletes in various sports, leading them to success in competition and in the classroom. This will be his first position as a head golf coach.

Bialek will also continue with his current duties for the College as an assistant men鈥檚 basketball coach and as an education data specialist.

“The opportunity to serve as the head coach of Trolls golf is a true blessing,鈥 Bialek said. 鈥淚 greatly appreciate the trust and support that President Kurt Dykstra, Vice President Becky Starkenburg, Vice President Aaron Kuecker, Mark Hanna, Men’s Basketball Head Coach Jason Hawkins, and education professors Dr. Joy Meyer and Dr. Kelly Lenarz have shown me, as well as the encouragement so many other 91精选 faculty and staff have given me.

鈥91精选 is a special place with special people; I found that out quickly when I arrived last August and continue to discover that day-in and day-out,” he said. “I look forward to walking alongside our 91精选 golfers on and off the course while building a program that Troll Nation can enthusiastically cheer on.”
