Release Date: May 15, 2001

After leading the Monmouth College Fighting Scots men’s and women’s outdoor track teams to a title sweep at last weekend’s Midwest Conference Championships in Grinnell, Iowa, Roger Haynes was named Coach of the Year in the MWC for both men’s and women’s track.

Haynes has made his name directing Monmouth’s men’s track program, and the title the Scots won at Grinnell was the 18th indoor or outdoor title for a Haynes-coached men’s team at MC. Since taking over the women’s program in the 1999-2000 academic year, Haynes has led the Scots to three MWC championships, giving him a total of 21.

Monmouth’s most recent titles included two new meet records, both set by relay teams. Constance Jackson, Jill Hoops, Philicia Moredock and Michelle Flaar ran the 4x100 in 48.40, while the men’s 4x400 squad of Justin Bryant, Randy Williams, Ryan Moll and Chris Lacy ran a time of 3:16.11.
