Thomas Kirst

Coach Kirst is heading into his 5th season with the Red Hawks. 

“We have come a long way since I started here in May of 2013, then as the assistant coach.”

Since Kirst has been at Simpson, he has started a Junior Varsity team. This team consists of players who may still need some fundamental, strength or speed training before making the leap to the varsity squad.  Coach Kirst is excited with the direction that the JV team is heading in only the team’s second season.

Coach Kirst believes that every season can be a successful season by simply staying on course.  The desire to win, get better, and to believe in each other is something that he pushes all of his athletes to feel in all things they do. He knows that a love for the game and a respect for teammates can make any group of young women reach goals that once seemed impossible.
