Riverdale, NY – Nick McDonough, who has served as the Manhattan College cross country and women's track and field head coach for the past two seasons, is moving on to pursue other professional opportunities.
“We wish Coach McDonough well as he moves on with his career,” said Marianne Reilly, Director of Intercollegiate Athletics. “As we assess the track and field program, a national search will begin immediately with the assistance of a broad based committee to secure the best candidate for our program.”
In 2016, the women's track and field team tied for third at the MAAC Indoor Championships and placed fourth at the MAAC Outdoor Championships. Both the men's and women's cross country teams improved their finish in 2015 from the previous year. The men placed sixth at the 2015 MAAC Championships after finishing ninth in 2014, while the women improved to a seventh-place finish in 2015 after finishing eighth in the previous year.
