-Mid-Plains Community College
McCook native Garrett Nokes will be posthumously honored with a President’s Award at McCook Community College’s commencement ceremony May 7.
Nokes was a coach for the Mid-Plains Community College rodeo team from the fall of 2014 until his passing in February of this year. He made a tremendous impact on both the team and the college during that time.
“Garrett was so proud to be the rodeo coach for MPCC,” said Laura Nokes, Garrett’s wife. “He loved working in the arena and sharing his experience and his passion for the sport of rodeo. He was a fierce competitor, and he loved to compete, and he wanted his team to be just as competitive as he was both inside and outside of the arena. He was so proud of these student athletes and all they accomplished. I think the only other honor he had that meant more to him than being a coach, was being a dad and a husband.”
