Bowling Green State University women's track and field and cross country coach Steve Price has resigned his position to accept the position of athletic director at Lehman High School in Sidney, Ohio, it was announced today. Price has been the women's track coach for the last 10 seasons while he has been leading the women's cross country program for the last nine years.
Price has been very successful at Bowling Green. His cross country teams have won Mid-American Conference titles three times (1995, 1996 and 1998) in the last four years. In those same seasons, he was named the Coach of the Year in the MAC and the Ohio Coach of the Year. A second-place finish in 1997 was the only thing that kept his program from sweeping the last four championships.
He was also named the Great Lakes Region Division I Cross Country Coach of the Year in 1995.
Price's 1995 cross country team placed third at the NCAA district meet, earning a berth in the NCAA meet, becoming the first women's team in MAC history to earn a berth in the national meet.
In late February, his indoor track and field squad captured the MAC title for the first time, which led to his being named the Great Lakes Region Division I Indoor Track and Field Coach of the Year.
The 1965 graduate of Miami University spent 19 seasons (1967-83, 1985-86) coaching the Kettering Striders prior to coming to Bowling Green.
