Head coach of the Emory University track & field teams, John Curtin, was named the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) the South/Southeast Regional Women's Coach of the Year as announced by the organization late Tuesday afternoon.
It marks the fourth time Curtin has been named the USTFCCCA South/Southeast Regional Women's Coach of the Year for the outdoor track & field season. It also marks Curtin's fourth regional USTFCCCA Coach of the Year honor in the past calendar year as he was named both the Men's and Women's South/Southeast Cross Country Coach of the Year and during the indoor track & field season, he was honored as the South/Southeast Women's Coach of the Year.
Assistant Coach Lance Harden was also honored by the Association on Tuesday as he was awarded the South/Southeast Regional Men's Assistant Coach of the Year for the time in his tenure at Emory.
The USTFCCCA announced their All-Region selections for the outdoor season earlier this week as well with the Eagles combining for 29 All-Region selections; 22 women and seven men. The 22 All-Region honorees from the Emory women's team ranks as the third-most in the country.
