Nick starred in basketball in the late `80s, and the oldest brother, Jim was a graduate assistant in 1980 for J.D. Anderson's baseball squad. Marcella, the mother of all these former Panthers, also received her teaching certification from UNI, which was called Iowa State Teachers College at the time. Nurse has been a certified member of the Athletic Equipment Managers Assoc. since 1994 and the local Knights of Columbus. He enjoys working out in the WRC and camping with his family. His wife's name is Lori, and the couple has two children - Rachel and Andrew. |
