Latnie, in his second year at Madonna (Mich.), was named National Men’s Coach of the Year. He led the Crusaders to the program’s first national title as Madonna shared the crown with Doane (Neb.) at the 2021 NAIA Outdoor Track & Field Championships. The Crusaders amassed their total of 44 points with just four athletes, led by Tony Floyd’s sweep of the 5000 and 10,000 meters. During the regular season, Madonna finished fourth at the WHAC Outdoor Championships.
