The administrative team surprised Coach Nicole Erickson while she was teaching her middle school physical education class. Dr. Michelle Herrington presented Coach Erickson with a bouquet of flowers along with warm expressions to congratulate her on an amazing accomplishment.
Our own LPA Girls Basketball Coach Nicole Ericson is a former Duke women’s basketball player. She was recently selected as one of 17 individuals set to be inducted into the 2022 class of the Southern California Basketball Hall of Fame.
Coach Erickson transferred from Purdue and helped guide the Blue Devils to their first NCAA Final Four in 1999. She was a second team All-ACC honoree in 1998 and 1999, while remaining as one of the top three-point shooters in school history. She hit 60 and 62 treys in two years with the Blue Devils, while her seven three-pointers made in a game is tied for fourth on the Duke charts.
The LPA family would like to congratulate Coach Erickson on her recent induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame! We are extremely proud to have you on our TEAM! Go Greyhounds!
