Olympic coach Evy Scotvold, who coached with his wife Mary Scotvold in a long and distinguished coaching career in the US, has passed away on May 25.
The Scotvolds are probably best known for coaching Nancy Kerrigan and Paul Wylie. The Scotvolds also coached many others, including David Santee, and Jenny Kirk. Evy also coached Terry Kubicka, the only skater to perform a legal backflip in competition.
Paul Wylie posted on Facebook:
Thank you to my long time coach and mentor Evy Scotvold. Evy helped me learn so many things in my life, many of them about skating. Both he and Mary helped me to gain the skill and confidence to reach beyond my expectations and put the past behind me in the Olympics and my pro career. I am so glad to have had the chance to say thank you in person over the weekend for the energy, care and thought devoted to me as a skater and as a person. Peace be with you Boss. Paul
Rest In Peace
