Girls Basketball: Sierra Canyon Coach Steps Down
Jim Gortikov, the highly successful girls basketball coach at Sierra Canyon of Chatsworth has resigned the position to pursue new challenges.
Gortikov guided the Trailblazers for three season since the schools inception in 2005 compiling a 49-15 record, two playoff appearances, a section championship game appearance this past season and a state quarterfinal appearance.
Gortikov said, "It is the best move for me right now. I am not going away just pursuing new avenues in basketball".
Gortikov leaves the program in good shape with three top players returning next season. Senior to be Brenda Kramer and sophomores to be Kelly Schneider and Jasmine Sneed.
