"Finish Strong" for Coach Rick Cotant

Dear friends, family, and all former athletes of Coach Rick Cotant.

Coach Cotant has dedicated his life to coaching and mentoring young

athletes, and now he needs our assistance. Over the years, he has inspired countless individuals to reach their full potential, not only on the track but in life. His unwavering commitment to the sport and his athletes is unparalleled, and it's time for us to give back.

Coach Cotant's impact on the cross country and track and field community is immeasurable. He has instilled discipline, determination, and a love for the sport in every athlete he has coached.

Unfortunately, Coach Cotant has recently faced some unexpected health challenges that have left him unable to continue coaching and supporting his athletes as he once did. These challenges have taken an emotional and financial toll on he and his family.

We are reaching out to the cross country and track and field community, his former athletes, and all those who have been touched by his wisdom and guidance. Your generous contributions will help Coach Cotant cover medical expenses, and provide some financial relief during this challenging time for he and Marilyn.

We are setting a goal of $5,000 to ensure Coach Cotant has the necessary support during this challenging time. Every dollar counts, and your contribution will make a significant impact on his life and well-being. All contributions that do not apply towards his medical expenses will be saved into a scholarship fund for those future "Coach Cotants" who wish to go into teaching and coaching.

Let's come together to show our gratitude for Coach Cotant's dedication and make sure he knows how much we appreciate his impact on each of us.

Thank you for your generosity and support. Please share this fundraiser with your friends and family to help us reach our goal and provide Coach Cotant with the assistance he needs.

Coach Cotant deserves our support, and together, we can make a real difference in his life.

Coach C. is glad to be home from Torrington Community Hospital, and is resting comfortably in his own home. He looks forward to texts, comments & messages from former students & athletes!

Let's "Finish Strong" one more time for Coach C.
