Wesleyan announces the hiring of Zach Kindler as Cross Country
/ Track and Field Coach Kansas Wesleyan University announces the appointment of Zach Kindler, a native of White Rock, Kansas, as the Head Coach of Cross-Country/Track and Field. Coach Kindler completed his Masters of Sports Administration from Fort Hays State University in May while serving as Graduate Assistant under Coach Jim Krob of FHSU. As an undergraduate at Fort Hays, Kindler was twice NCAA II Academic All-American, four times track and field All-American, and was the NCAA National Champion in the Javelin throw. Head
Coach Krob, of Fort Hays and former head coach at Bethany
College commented, From Jerry Jones, AD, KWU, “Zach is young, but I remind you of the story of a young man who had just completed his masters degree at Heidelberg University, Ohio, and was on his way to Colorado when he made a short stop at Kansas Wesleyan as football coach which led to a 33 year stint for Gene Bissell as the greatest football coach in Coyote history. Zach Kindler is a young man with special credentials, the Dean’s Honor Roll, twice Academic All-American, National Champion in the Javelin, and four times All-American, and in addition, he is a really, really good man. Under Coach Krob, Coach Kindler has been trained in coaching multi-event athletes. He is not limited to developing athletes in just the throwing events. Zach is familiar with the recruiting process and is going to do very well as he begins his career coaching the Coyotes.” Coach
Kindler comments, “ I have high goals for KWU in both
conference and national rankings. We will work hard and
dedicate ourselves toward being able to compete for the
KCAC championships. It won’t be easy. We have a long
ways to go. This is a great opportunity for me, and with
faith, hard work, and some dedicated recruiting, the job
will get done.” |
