Steve Walsh to W&M

I'll just second that last message. The steve walsh at Providence definitely ran high school in philly and then went to psu. in the Providence roster photo he looks a little older, but otherwise very much the same as the last time i saw him.

any news on who is going to pc?

Yeah seriously, who is going to coach the Biggest Boss next year?

That doesn't make sense at all. Why would Walsh leave a place like USC and go to W&M?

Does he get an assistant distance coach? Who will that be?

Who did?

He went to Hendricken high school in Warwick Rhode Island, 4.17 high school miler. Helped train Molly Huddle and the other pros here in Providence.

Does anyone know what his coaching philosophy is like? The guys at W&M are used to a high mileage coach...will walsh stay true to that?

The Steve Walsh this thread is about is Pennsylvania born and bred. He went to Penn State, was an assistant at UPenn I believe, then an associate head coach at Providence, and he is finally moving into a head coaching position at W&M. I have no idea whether or not he worked at all with Molly Huddle. Molly was based in Providence, but I would think that Ray Treacy would write her workouts.

The other Steve Walsh went to Hendricken, ran for BC, and is now a young assistant coach at Stony Brook. He has nothing to do with Molly Huddle or the W&M job opening. I hope this clears things up.

Most Providence guys I know run 80 to 85 miles a week. They aren't super high mileage. Then again, Walsh wasn't the boss. Yet, I still don't think he's a super high mileage type. I've heard he is big on longer threshold type stuff and doubles.. Also, he has had maybe more success coaching 800 meter runners than any other event. This may have been due to the talent pool he was given, I don't know.

The Steve Walsh who will head up W&M Track went to high school at St. Joseph's Preparatory School in Philadelphia before heading to Penn State.

noone from stoney brook is high profile, nor have they done high profile things so it cant be him

Not to rain on your parade, but I am pretty sure the Women's XC team at Stony Brook has qualified for Nationals several times in the past 5 years, and also has had some recent All-Americans in Track.

Didn't Van Dalen run 4:13 in the 1500m this year?

Congratulations to Steve

Didn't he get drafted by the Cowboys when he went to the NFL but they drafted Aikman as well?

From the article:

"Walsh captained the [Penn State] cross country team to the IC4A Championships team title in 2000."

Actually, Bradd Del Muto was the captain that year. No biggie.

Congrats, Steve!!! Have them take a better photo of you.

Congrats Steve! And they didn't mention your golfing abilities either! Good luck, make Harry proud.
