A Day with Hempfield Track & Field Graduates

Today I had the chance to visit with some of Hempfield's finest!  Let's begin with some coaches:

Warren Taylor - Class of 1977

Warren is the Head Track & Field Coach at Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology.
After a great career at Hempfield, Warren went onto Thaddeus Stevens & Millersville and continued to excel as an athlete!  He has been the head track & field coach many years at Thaddeus Stevens and was inducted into the Hempfield Hall of Fame this year!  A great coach, a great athlete and an even greater person!

Alex Proctor - Class of 2004

Alex was a stellar track & field athlete at Hempfield and went on to run track & field at West Chester University.  He is now the Head Track & Field Coach at Immaculata University!


And athletes:

Eric Solomon - Widener University

Eric won the Hammer Throw today with a toss of 17.97 meters (58'-11 1/2").  Eric is ranked 11th (Division 3) in the country!  Check out the division 3 rankings.

Melissa Fellenbaum - Alvernia University

After a great weekend last week, Melissa decided to rest this weekend and prepare for MAC Championships next week at Lehigh!  Last week was a PR 3.90 meters (12'8")  Melissa is currently ranked 2nd (Division 3) in the nation!
