It's not an exaggeration to say it's harder to get on the podium at the American Rivers Conference Championships than it is to qualify for nationals. (See last year's hammer throw as just one of many examples each year.) Congratulations to Chris on this outstanding achievement!

When you know, you KNOW. Chris Baker knew he cranked that one! He went to a whole new level today in the last chance meet. 19.37m (63'6.5") Personal best. School record. 7th furthest throw in NCAA Div. III this season. Ticket punched to the national championships!

Our men's XCTF head coach will be in the dome throughout the day for the Dickinson Relays. Athletes, coaches & parents, please email [email protected] if you would like to be recruited or recommend someone for us to take a look at. We are always looking for future Kohawks!

Chris Baker's progression on the national list in the weight throw: FR. 266th (13.92m / 45'8") SO. 176th (15.01m / 49'3") JR. 97th (16.34m / 53'7.5") SR. 7th (19.37m / 63'6.5") Hard work pays off. Congrats to Chris on qualifying for the NCAA D3 National Championships!

Gifts from the NCAA in hand. Practice complete. Good dinner. One more sleep & then it's go time. Chris Baker throws the weight in the NCAA Div. III Indoor Track & Field National Championships at 10:00am EST/9:00am CST Friday morning. He will be in the 2nd flight. Go Chris!

Another new Kohawk All-American! Track and field thrower Chris Baker earned a second team All-American honor in the weight throw competition at the national indoor meet! kohawkathletics.com/news/2025/3/14…

High school coaches, we have room for 1 more girls team and 3 more boys teams before we hit max capacity in our indoor meet this coming Thu. Mar. 27. If you're looking for one more indoor meet before some cold early-season outdoor meets, please email [email protected] for info.

Great night for a high school meet on our indoor track in the Clark Racquet Center. Thank you to the teams who attended, and our student-athletes, officials and coaches, who helped host it! We hope to see even more teams attend next year.

Congratulations to recent Coe XCTF graduate Lewis Kleman on accepting an offer to join the Material Science and Engineering PhD program at Clemson University! While working towards his doctorate degree, Lewis will be doing research on fiber optics. #WeBuildWinnersInLife

It's national D3 week across the NCAA. Here's a fun fact about how competitive D3 is: Coe's All-American weight thrower Chris Baker's PR would have been the best throw on 20 D1 Power Four teams. His PR would also have placed him 10th in both the ACC & Big 12 Championships!

5th Annual Coe XCTF Easter Brunch for our team members who couldn't make it home to their families for Easter. Thank you to 30hop for accommodating our group of 12 on short notice. We had six states represented (IA, IL, WI, MO, AZ & CA).

Congratulations to women's team member Lily Mayo for being named a Clark Merit Scholar! This prestigious full-tuition scholarship is only given to five students each year at Coe. Lily is both an outstanding student and XCTF athlete, as well as a leader in the campus community.

It's an honor to share an indoor facility with this team and see first-hand how hard they work. Awesome to see all of it pay off for them. Congratulations to Coe's women's tennis team!

Day 1 of the A-R-C Championships in the books. 67% of our performances finished higher than their ranking coming in, including 4 for 4 in the discus. Our young sprinters stepped up, led by Talon Sargent who ran 10.95 & 22.44 (100m/200m) & Ryan Hines ran 50.97 (400m). Both are FR!

On the women's side, the highlight of Day 1 of the A-R-C Championships was sophomore Lily Mayo running 11:44.75 in the 3,000m steeplechase, a 12-second PR and 2nd-fastest time in school history at Coe!

Don't sleep on Cedar Rapids. Our men's XCTF recruiting class has 5 guys coming in from the scenic mountains of Colorado, and two from the beautiful beaches of Hawaii, all of whom visited Coe and loved Cedar Rapids. Our men's team alone has 8 states represented in this '25 class.

Homegrown right here in the 319. Congratulations to Chris!

For the first time in the 128-year history of the Coe Men's XCTF program we have had national qualifying performances in 4 consecutive seasons! We still have a long way to go to reach our goals as a program, but we are proud to be venturing into uncharted territory on our climb.

Good luck to everyone competing in the IA state T&F meet this weekend! We will have a coach from our staff at the meet. Please email [email protected] (b) or [email protected] (g) if you're interested in being recruited. Seniors, it's not too late. Juniors, it's not too early.

Chris graduates from Coe as a school record-holder, conference champion, 2x all-conference honoree, 2x All-American and 3x national qualifier. Congratulations to Chris on an outstanding college career as a Kohawk!
