Darwin Gushard

Coach Gushard, who leads our throws program, is the "coach on the hill", as his work with the shot, discus, and javelin take him outside the track area.  As Darwin enters his 18th year with the club, Flyer throwers have won 47 national championships, rating as one of the top throwing teams in the country.  A former Norris High School and Doane College thrower, Darwin also serves as assistant head coach for the team and is responsible for club's web site, www.cornhuskerflyers.org, one of the better youth track club web sites in the country.

Rosalyn Wilson
Coach Wilson, in her 7th year with the club, coaches one of the most unique events in track & field – the race walk.  Rosalyn was a Flyer athlete in track and cross country for seven years, and as a former national competitor in the race walk, brings a lot of knowledge about the event to her athletes.  At age 14, she ran a half-marathon in Anchorage, Alaska to benefit leukemia research through Team-In-Training.

T.J. Teetor
Coach Teetor returns for his 6th year working with the sprint crew.  Currently he is an anesthesiology resident at the University of Nebraska Medical Center.  T.J. will be with us as much as his schedule will allow.  As a former sprinter at Lexington High School, he brings the knowledge of what it means to work hard to become a better sprinter.

Lisa Beachler
One of the top high school shot putters in Nebraska Class A history, Coach Beachler brings her collegiate experience from Kansas State and UNO to help with the Flyers throws program.  In her 4th year of coaching, this 3-time age group national champion gives added depth to our coaching staff, especially with the newest USATF event, the hammer throw.

Joe LaBat
Coach LaBat, an outstanding runner at Omaha Central High School, returns for a 3rd year to help with the club's sprint program.  He has a lot of expertise that will be utilized this season.

Susan Waldron
tswaldron1@msn.com
One of the most difficult – and important – jobs within the club, the uniform coordinator is Mrs. Waldron.  Before an athlete can compete as a Flyer, he/she needs to see Susan to get a uniform.  See her early for the best selection!  A uniform deposit is required to obtain a uniform kit, but the deposit will be returned when the uniform is checked in at the end of the season.
