Outdoor Track and Field

Hi Everybody! My name is Jessie Belden (aka Coach B) and this is my first year as the head outdoor track coach at Amity. I was an assistant last year and an assistant this year during the indoor season. I am very excited about the upcoming season. We have a lot of talent this year as well as some untapped potential! I am very lucky to be joined by a exceptionally qualified coaching staff: Tom Haley who coached the shotput to our only New England qualifer during the indoor season; Jeremy Iverson, our very successful pole vault coach who coached a vaulter to an SCC championship and our newest member, Reidun Wallin, Division II all-American in the high jump and the heptathlon that went on to compete in the USA championships in the heptathlon.

We are all very excited to get started this season and I hope that you all are as well! The sign up meeting is Tuesday, March 8th and our first day of practice Monday, March 21st.
