Nicole Fairclough has stepped down from her position as head volleyball coach at Flathead High School after three seasons, the school announced on Jan. 13.

Fairclough led the Bravettes to a fourth-place finish at the Class AA state tournament in 2018 but that was the school’s only tournament appearance in her three seasons at the helm. Flathead went 5-13 last year. In a press release announcing Fairclough’s departure, Activities Director Bryce Wilson wrote that, “Nicole has worked to build a Flathead volleyball family with high morals on and off the court.”

The search for a new head coach will begin immediately. The next coach will be the program’s third since 2015.
