Academy of the Holy Names (Tampa) in need of rowing coach

We launched our crew program in the spring and had a very successful inaugural season by all accounts, but we are in need of a new head coach. The head coach from the spring does not have the time and will become a part-time assistant.

Anything that could be done to help us identify potential coaches would be greatly appreciated. We have an all-girls school and are anticipating have both fall and spring seasons, so we are in a crunch to locate a coach for the fall. And if there is a classified site on which I should place an ad, please let me know.
