We would like to introduce to you our new CMMS track coach for the 2025 season! She is a familiar face for our returning track athletes from last season. Coach VanWagner was a big help with the 2024 CMMS track season with coach LeGrow. This year she will be taking the lead. Hi Bobcats! I am Holly VanWagner. I am so excited to be taking on this new adventure as the new CMMS Track Coach! I grew up in Greenville, MI but I have lived in Bay City for 17 years. My husband Adam and I have 4 amazing children (Laurel, Hunter, Harper & Ace) and 3 Golden Retrievers. I work at Bush Elementary Preschool and Daycare, and I am currently going back to college to receive my associate's degree in Child Development. I was a track athlete throughout my High school and Middle school careers, as a sprinter, hurdler and long jumper. I am looking forward to a great Track season with (hopefully) some nice weather! Go Bobcats!!

Happy Tuesday Bobcat Nation! We would like to introduce our new Varsity Assistant Coach to you all! Hello Bobcats! I’m Nick Southern and I’m excited to join the baseball program at John Glenn. I was born and raised in Bay City and my wife Nicole and I are currently raising our two boys (and our dog Jackson) here. Reese (18) is a freshman at Alma College and is also playing baseball there and Ryder (14) is an 8th grader at CMMS. Outside of coaching, I have been an elementary school teacher for the past 18 years–currently I’m teaching K-5 physical education. I’ve had the privilege of coaching baseball for the last 15 years at all different levels. Many of my current and former players attend CMMS and John Glenn. During the spring and summer, you can be sure to find me at a baseball field somewhere! I am excited for the season to begin. Go Bobcats! Help us welcome Coach Southern if you see him around the gym or the fields this spring 🐾
