For the second consecutive year, Monmouth College track coach Roger
Haynes has been named the Division III Midwest Region Men’s Indoor
Track Coach of the Year by the United States Track & Field and Cross
Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA).
The USTFCCA annually honors coaches and athletes who have
achieved a high level of success in track & field and cross country.
The Scots men have captured 15 Midwest Conference titles since
Haynes took over the program in 1984 and this season claimed their
ninth-straight league crown. Monmouth also qualified seven men in
six events for this weekend’s NCAA Indoor Championships in Ada,
Ohio. Two of those athletes, Peter Sprecher (pole vault) and Zach
Wilson (weight throw), have the top marks in the nation.
Haynes’ teams have produced five individual nation champions and
his men’s outdoor team placed third in the nation last spring after
finishing sixth nationally during the indoor season.
A 1982 graduate of Monmouth, Haynes was recently introduced as
Monmouth’s new director of athletics, recreational sports and
fitness. He will take over the duties from Dr. Terry Glasgow on July
1.
