Coach of the Year

John Tarling, Merriconeag: Guided Merriconeag to its fifth consecutive Class C Nordic state championship despite the New Gloucester Waldorf school’s enrollment of fewer than 40 students. He also led Merriconeag’s boys to a third straight title and both won MPA sportsmanship awards. “I think the school values that even more,” said Tarling, whose skiers take the sport “seriously in a good way. They don’t overstress about it.”
