NCCU'S LAWSON VOTED CIAA WOMEN'S OUTDOOR TRACK & FIELD COACH
OF THE YEAR
HAMPTON, VA -- North Carolina Central University head coach Michael
Lawson has been selected as the 2002 Central Intercollegiate Athletic
Association (CIAA) Women's Outdoor Track & Field Coach of the Year.
During the 2002 CIAA Outdoor Track & Field
Championships in Petersburg, VA, six Lady Eagles piled up enough points
to capture second place overall, marking the highest outdoor team finish
for the NCCU women in school history.
In his 13 seasons as head coach for men's
and women's cross country and track & field at NCCU, this is Lawson's
first outdoor conference coach of the year honor. He has twice been named
the CIAA Women's Cross Country Coach of the Year (1999 and 2001).
