The U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) announced Thursday the state-by-state winners of its fourth annual High School Coach of the Year award for cross country.
Sean Walsh has been named the girls 2017 New Jersey coaches of the year by the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association.
The North Hunterdon girls won their first NJSIAA Meet of Champions title since 1986 this past November under the coaching of Sean Walsh. After some close calls in previous years they proved to be dominant all season long in 2017. Their squad makes a full comeback next year so this could just be the beginning of something even greater.
Sean will receive a trophy and the USTFCCCA will choose between each state winner for the final National Coach of the Year award. That honor is to be announced later this month.
