As you probably know Jim Hurt retired after 39 years as track coach. Assistant coach Aliann Pompey was promoted in late May by AD Mike Cragg.
On 8/2, I was informed by the Director of the University’s Human Resources, that “under the direction of new Head Coach Pompey” my position as assistant coach is no longer needed. The reason I was told was she intends to hire a new staff and move ahead in a different direction. Meanwhile Coach Pompey was in Tokyo while I covered the office, recruiting high school students and their coaches & families. She has never advised me of her plans, so I am not aware of what this means going forward.
I asked the athletic department if I could be able to tell my current team in person but I was denied & asked to turn in all university property and be out ASAP. My email & access code were deactivated. Coach Pompey returned the following week and has yet to contact me. … I am already terminated.
I wanted you to hear it from me.

This is how we are going to crowd source the season-by-season history of teams. I'm a Christ the King guy, but this photo I am posting also has runners from Molloy in it so we are helping build their history at the same time.
Someone from that 24 year old Olympic experience sent me a note today and it made me look though some photos. George Steinbrenner was one of the Chefs, Team Leaders, of the U.S. Olympic Team in Barcelona. Regardless of his media persona, he was a supporting person to the entire team and even appeared at the flag raising ceremony for the United States team. It was after that ceremony that this photo was taken so he was especially jubilant.
The Armory will be closed for rest of the the indoor track season to be used as a covid vaccination. They said in their statement "While we know this is disappointing, we are very pleased that for the first portion of the indoor track season we were able to host more than twenty meets with stringent health protocols and provide an opportunity for athletes to compete safely."
