After 27 years as the head track and field coaches at Eastern Washington University, Stan Kerr and Marcia Mecklenburg have announced their retirements. Dave Nielsen,
Any insight into what EWU will do? Head XC coach to lead men and women? Keep the men and women with two head coaches or go to one combined? New Director of XC and Track and clean house? Other?
After five seasons at the helm of the Minot State track and field program, Mark Del Monaco will not return next season, MSU Interim Director of Athletics Kevin Harmon announced Wednesday.
Not enough funding? That is a goofy reason and makes zero sense. All contracts are up, and unless they renew the staff, they have plenty of funding to rehire. You definitely need better sources.
Whatever direction Eastern Washington decides to go, the one person they need to retain (assuming he wants to stay) is their pole vault coach, Eric Allison. That’s the one event group that’s consistently produced over the last decade.
The defections from EWU have already started, as their Big Sky scorer in the 400, Daniel Gaik, announced yesterday that he’s transferring to the University of Washington.
Regarding their distance coach Sam Read, I think it will depend on who is the new head coach/director.
Dave occasionally interjected, but Eric for the most part, ran the show with the pole vaulters at Eastern, as he was there before Dave was talked out of retirement.
Dave worked primarily with the jumpers and multi-event athletes.
Last NCAA outdoor NCAA championships UCLA placed 50th in the men's side and 40th in the women's side. Stephen F Austin was 13th in the men's. Let that sink in if you are a UCLA alum or even the UCLA AD.

SMH.......Are you implying that SFA is better than UCLA? 98% of the time UCLA finishes ahead of SFA. Want to bet who finishes higher this year?

I’ll take SFA men for sure since they qualified more people to nationals than UCLA. Right now SFA is a better national level program than UCLA.
