Coach Rick McCorkle's Bio
|
||
 |
For more than three decades Rick McCorkle
led the men’s cross country and track and field programs at The College.
During his 32-year tenure, he guided the program to numerous conference
and regional honors, while also coaching nine All-Americans in track and
field. In addition, a number of student-athletes established school records
in track and field, many of which still stand today. After arriving at The College in 1963 as a member of the faculty in the health and physical education department, McCorkle wasted no time on making his mark on the athletic department as a coach. His coaching career commenced in 1963 when he started the men’s cross country program. He served as the program’s coach for more than 30-years, stepping down in 1994. During that same time, he also started the men’s winter track and field indoor program, serving as its coach from 1969 until 1995. McCorkle also served as the head coach of the men’s outdoor track and field squad from 1970 until 1995. Not a person that enjoys idle time, he also managed to start the men’s swimming program at The College and served as its coach from 1967 until 1970. During that same era, he also served as the women’s swimming coach from 1967 until 1970. After retiring from coaching in 1995, he maintained his position as a member of the faculty in the health and physical education department until 1999. |
