Last week, Boldt was named the head volleyball coach at Concordia. So is Cook now near the top of Boldt's Christmas gift-giving list?
"He just won a championship," Boldt said. "I'm sure he doesn't need any Christmas presents from me."
And now Boldt and his wife, Angie, are "home." Boldt is a Norris graduate. Angie, who will serve as an assistant coach at Concordia, is from St. Paul.
Prior to taking the job, the Boldts coached at NCAA Division III Hendrix in Arkansas. Angie served as head coach, and Ben was the assistant. They were there for two seasons, leading the Warriors to a league title while also coaching three All-Americans.
