Summer Coaches Symposium featuring Harry Marra


Goucher College is proud to host the Summer Coaches Symposium, featuring acclaimed Track and Field Coach Harry Marra.  Marra was the coach of world record holder and two time Olympic Gold medalist Ashton Eaton.  Marra was named the Nike Coach of the Year in 2012 and the IAAF/World Athletics Coach of the Year in 2016.  In addition to coaching Eaton, Marra’s resume also includes coaching Brianne Theisen-Eaton (World Indoor Gold Medalist and Olympic Bronze Medalist) and six other men who cracked the illustrious 8000 point barrier in the decathlon.  Marra has also been the Head Coach for the U.S. National team from 1990-2000 and Head Coach at San Francisco State (1981-1993).  His accolades and experience continue forever.  He brings a wealth of knowledge to this clinic.  Marra returns to his local stomping grounds, as he is also an alum of Mount St. Mary’s.
