USTFCCCA High School Coaches of the Year

High School Coach of the Year

The U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association is proud to recognize the outstanding efforts of the country’s top high school coaches.

Separate awards for cross country and track & field were created with the USTFCCCA High School Coach of the Year Program following the 2014 track & field season.

Henceforth, the Association will recognize state-by-state winners of High School Coach of the Year honors for both boys and girls teams, then from those state-by-state winners, one boys coach and one girls coach will be selected as National High School Coach of the Year.

The USTFCCCA High School Award Program is presented by the United States Marine Corps.
