Yourkovich hired as H.C. girls coach

NICK YOURKOVICH
July 1, 2009

The basketball coaching carousel that’s been ongoing the past month at Harrison Central has finally come to a halt. Martins Ferry High product and former St. John Central boys’ basketball coach Nick Yourkovich was hired at Tuesday’s board meeting as the new head girls’ basketball coach at Harrison Central. “I couldn’t be more excited about the opportunity and this job,” Yourkovich said. “Professionaly the move (to Harrison) was no a no-brainer. The perks of teaching in a public school and for me personally it was time for a change. We had the program up and running with a reserve program and with all of the changes going on (at St. John) it was time for me to get out.” Mark Kowalski stepped down in the middle of May and it appeared as if Justin Clifford was going to take over the Lady Huskies’ program. However, boys basketball coach Adam Pittis then was hired for the Akron Copley post and Clifford opted to take over the boys program, once again vacating the girls’ job.
