Nicole Woods, head coach of the UNC Wilmington women's basketball team, has avoided serious damage or impairment after nearly drowning last week while pulling her nephew out of a rip current, she said recently, noting that it is a “miracle” she is O.K.
On May 21, Woods took her 10-month-old daughter and 15-year-old daughter, plus her 8-year-old niece and nephew, to Wrightsville Beach, per WECT-TV. When her nephew then waded into the ocean, a wave hit him on his back and knocked him underwater.
