The biggest problem for us is the lack of depth where we are good in some areas like the 200m , 400m and the jumping events we dominate but the areas where we lack or have nobody running at all like the 60m, 100m, the hurdles and the distance events schools like Furman and Samford have a ton of depth in those events but that can be fixed if the coaches can recruit some athletes in those areas. Sorry, but that's like saying the football program has a good offense, but sucks on the defensive side of the ball. We know how that works out. Point being, we can't now keep up with schools like Samford in Track and Field, and have always done poorly in Cross Country. I get what your saying but all I'm saying is that once we have a team where athletes will compete in all the events we will have a better chance at winning again. Remember that A&T had this same problem until the 2016-2017 season and look at what they have been doing since.

Just a thought, Track under our dear friend, Paul Jones was great. He trained a guy named Danny Williamson, who trained a guy named Cale McDaniel, all, very successful. Paul is happily retired, Danny, is the head coach at UNCA, and doing great as usual, and Cale is happy and doing great as the head coach at Kennesaw State University.
Danny Williamson, as many of you know, is a true Catamount, and wouldn't it be interesting if he came back to WCU for a few years, and trained the next coach that could be a Cale McDaniel to take his place.
Danny Williamson, Dr. Brown, and Alex Gary would make a great team in my mind:
GO CATS!!!!!!!!!!!!
