Meet the Coaches

Years Experience - 9

Coaches Long Jump and Triple Jump

In high school did long and triple jump, relays, hurdles, javelin, 100, 200, 400, & 800. 

Favorite part of coaching Track & Field is watching athletes work hard to meet their goals. 

Best Track Memories would be watching a jumper PR by 2 feet at State, watching an athlete qualify for state at Regionals after working toward that goal, and watching a jumper break the school record in triple jump with a huge PR. 

How did you get into Track? Watching her cousin compete at the state meet when she was in Elementary School. 

This year she is looking forward to getting outside sooner than we did last year. 

Years Experience - 15

Coaches Sprints, Relays, and anything else we need

In High School did 100, 200, 4x100, 4x200, and long jump

Favorite part about being a Track Coach is seeing the hard work pay off for our athletes and accomplishing their goals, also the camaraderie we have as a coaching staff

Best Track memory would be seeing the excitement of our kids when they break a PR, put up a performance in our Top 10 List, or Qualify for State. Close behind that would be seeing our athletes reaction to attending the State Track & Field Meet for the first time

Grew up playing baseball but was eventually coerced into Track by the coach and really enjoyed the combination of individual and team aspects Track has. 

Looking forward to having a season where we will be able to get outside earlier and more often, tough when a Spring is shortened by the weather. Also looking forward to seeing what our kids can accomplish

Years Experience - 2 at NC and 2 at Thompson

Coaches High Jump, Long Jump, Sprints, and Relays

In high school participated in long jump, high jump, 100, 200, 4x100, 4x200, and 4x400

Favorite aspects of coaching track and field would be seeing the progression athletes make throughout the season and getting to see athletes hard work pay off in improvements and personal records

Best Track memories would be competing at the State Track Meet, the atmosphere of the event, spending time with teammates, and Coach Hollister's State Slideshows

Interest in Track & Field began from her Dad as he was really into Track but also found satisfaction in the individual aspects of Track and being able to see progression and improvements throughout the years

Looking forward to seeing all of the personal records kids will achieve this year as well as the journey and the work it takes to get to the State Track Meet

Years Experience - 25+

Coaches Hurdles

In High School ran the 100 Yard High Hurdles, 180 Yard Low Hurdles, Mile Relay, and 880 Yard Relay

Favorite part of coaching Track is watching the athletes improve and enjoy competing

Best Track Memories would be Tyler Woitzel being the 2003 Senior State Track Athlete of the Year, and the Boys and Girls Teams of 2014 and 2015 raising the interest and enthusiasm for Jaguar Track & Field

 In High School got into Track & Field because everyone went out and ended up having great mentors in it that pushed him, as a coach found it as a great way to motive and push athletes to compete

This season he is looking forward to watching everyone have success in all of their events, whethere it is running, jumping, or throwing
