Lyn Kostbar Nec was the Girls Swim Coach at Cherry Hill East.
Nec’s swimming journey began when she joined the Covered Bridge swim team. She eventually tried out for the Delaware Township High School Girls’ Swim Team and helped them achieve a league championship.
After starting to teach at Cherry Hill East, Nec wanted to continue her love and devotion for swim and decided to coach the East Girls’ Swim Team as the assistant to Kitty WIllis.
Her coaching was impressive, to say the least, earning her team more than seven league championships and five state championships.
One of her star swimmers, Mendez, was also inducted into the 2019 Hall of Fame.
Necis very grateful for the experience of coaching swimming at East, and her legacy as an awarding winning coach will always be remarkable.
