Westminster Christian Academy has hired David Klyn as its new varsity boys basketball coach. Klyn has served as an interim head varsity coach for the 2011-12 school year, during which he led the team to a 22-5 record.
Athletic Director Todd Zell says that Westminster is privileged to welcome Klyn to its coaching staff. “David brings a great deal of energy to the team, but what really stands out is his walk with the Lord,” says Zell. “He is a godly man who not only shares his knowledge of the game but also shares about his walk with God as well. He is a great example for our young men to follow.”
Klyn is the physical education teacher at Central Christian School and will continue in that position. His wife Karissa is the physical education teacher at Kirk Day School.
