Coach Harvey to Manage Newly Established Men's Cross Country ...

Lakewood?Brett Harvey, currently the head coach of the Georgian Court University women?s cross-country and track & field programs and 2012 NCAA East Region Track & Field Coach of the Year, has been selected to also navigate the newly-established men?s programs at GCU, Director of Athletics and Recreation Laura B. Liesman announced today.

?

?Coach Harvey was the natural selection for this position,? said Liesman. ?Since he first came on board in 2008, Coach Harvey has done a phenomenal job with building our track & field program from scratch and developing it into one of the elite Division II programs in the Northeast. I expect the same with the men?s program upon its debut in 2013.?

?

The 2011?2012 year was a great one for Harvey and his Lions as they captured their first CTC indoor title, which they followed with a second straight CTC outdoor championship. Georgian Court completed the year with 12 NCAA Provisional Qualifiers, 16 All-Region Performers and 22 Conference Champions. The team finished the season ranked #3 in the NCAA East Region, an all time program high, while sending two student-athletes to the NCAA Division II Outdoor Championships in Pueblo, Colorado.

?

?I?m tremendously honored to receive this opportunity and very humbled that Georgian Court has the confidence in me to develop the men?s cross-country and track & field programs, while being permitted to continue the growth and success we have experienced on the women?s side,? said Harvey. ?It is an exciting time to be a part of the GCU family, and I hope to carry some positive momentum into this new era for Georgian Court University.?

Coach Harvey, a four-time track & field letter winner, graduated from Lafayette College in 2004 with a B.A. in Sociology. Harvey is a USATF Level 2 Certified Coach in the Sprints and Hurdles. He resides in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, with his fianc?e, Kristi.
