Greg MacLean

Asst. Head Coach

Jet since 2002

Coach Greg has been a been involved in Track & Field for many years as both a coach and athlete. A certified "Track Nut," he competed in the sprints (100,200, & 400m) and jumps (HJ, LJ, & TJ) in high school, earned 4 varsity letters and medalled at the state meet in the LJ. He competed (unattached) in the decathlon while in college. At one time or another, he has competed in every field event (except the hammer throw) and every running event up to1,500m (not a distance runner). Greg has coached high school athletes in the jumps and more recently worked with youth age-group levels in the jumping and throwing events. A professional engineer by trade, Greg understands the physics of the sport and places a heavy emphasis on the proper technique through the mechanics of motion.

"My goal is for the kids to have fun and learn to appreciate the sport of Track & Field. Every athlete should have the opportunity for one-on-one coaching in their events to reach their potential." Greg is married to Nancy MacLean and they have two children, Madision and Jackson who both compete for the Jets..
