Students, administrators, or fans can log onto the "Be True to Your School" Facebook page to nominate a coach for consideration. A winner will be selected every two weeks and the winner will be invited to either an Idaho Steelheads hockey game or Idaho Stampede basketball game to collect the thousand-dollar check for the school's athletics department.
