New Canaan’s Diane Murphy-Kivell Named ‘Secondary Athletic Trainer of the Year’
|
Diane Murphy-Kivell, athletic trainer at New Canaan High School since 1982, has been awarded the “Secondary Athletic Trainer of the Year Award” from the state association for athletic trainers in recognition of her work. At Monday night’s Board of Education meeting, Jay Egan, athletic director for New Canaan Public Schools, announced Murphy-Kivell’s award from the Connecticut Athletic Trainers Association. Egan called his announcement about the award, which was conferred last spring, “probably the best news that I have to share tonight.” “I think it is good news for all of the athletes at New Canaan High School,” Egan said. “We could not have a better person entrusted with their health and safety.”
