What others are saying about Coach Neria :

 

Mr. Neria is a model employee with high expectations. I have seen firsthand those leadership and personal qualities that contribute to the success of leaders and I believe Mr. Neria has those innate
qualities to be successful in any position.

Any school district would be certainly blessed by his presence, in any capacity, on its staff.  His core values as an educator and coach are unparalleled among his peers.

Troy Thatcher President of the Board of Education Manchester Local Schools

 

Nick has always been a natural leader. He is also one of those guys that doesn’t have to be loud to know he is a leader. As a player, when Nick spoke everyone listened. He commanded respect through
his caring for others.

Brian Foos Head Football Coach Capital University 

 

The highest praise I could give to Nick is that he is an even better human than he is a football coach and he is a great football coach.

Coach Neria exceeds all others in one area…commitment.
He is one of the few coaches who consistently hold his players and coaching staff accountable,
even in the midst of winning or losing seasons. His coaching staff and student-athletes will run through a wall for him, because they mimic his commitment to want to get better and play the game with integrity. Coach Neria has proven year after year his irrefutable level of commitment to his organization, coaches, players, families, and to his community. 

Brian Rau Superintendent of Wellston City Schools 

 

I firmly believe Nick checks the most important box of all and that is caring about his players. He is personable and caring (mixed
with knowledge and being driven), which lends itself to having players buy in to what he wants them to do. I’ve stood a mere few
feet away from many sidelines he has coached upon and never saw anything but dedication to him from his players.

Tate Skinner Manchester Elementary Principal 

 

Coach Neria has displayed tremendous leadership qualities of dedication, consistency, accountability and being a team players.

During this time, he has established and excellent rapport with students, staff and the community.
