Joe Newton - Head Cross Country Coach of York HS, Elmhurst, Illinois
Coach Newton, star of "The Long Green Line", has led the boys of York HS to 26-state titles, and 20-National titles. Back in 1988 he was the first high school coach ever assigned as a manager for the US Olympic team. On countless occasions, Coach Newton has been voted Coach of the Year in addition to receiving 12 Hall of Fame awards. Coach Newton is an unbelievable speaker who has written four books, concentrating on training and motivation, and we're excited to have him at Cal U this summer. The movie "The Long Green Line", which documents Coach Newton's 2005 boy's team, has become a must-watch for any distance runner and in turn has propelled the 80-year old Coach Newton to international running fame.
