Nancy Ferguson's days as a student-athlete on the GA fields paved the way for her current passion as teacher and coach at Fallston High School in Maryland. She was a three-time letter winner at GA in field hockey, basketball and lacrosse and captained the field hockey team her senior year.

She attended Elizabethtown College, earned varsity letters all four years in field hockey and basketball, and was a team captain for each. In field hockey, she was twice chosen to represent the Lancashire Field Hockey Association in the Middle-East Sectional Tournament and was listed in the 1974 edition of Outstanding Athletes of America. In 1985, she was inducted into the Elizabethtown Hall of Fame.

Nancy's athletic accomplishments continue today at Fallston High School in Maryland. She has twice been named by the Baltimore Sun as female "Coach of the Year" in Maryland for soccer and basketball and was chosen from a pool of male and female coaches of all sports in the spring of 1995 as the "Coach of the Year" in Eastern Maryland.
