Coach of the Year

Gil Stange, Towson

Stange hadn't coached cross country in seven years but took the reins again at Towson this fall, and it turned out to be a good move. Stange pushed a good group of runners to the next level, as the Generals won the Baltimore County and Class 3A state titles. They came in second in the regional meet. He did a good job of keeping the runners focused throughout the season.
