Track Head Coach ~ Matt Hall
We are excited to announce that long time Journalism, English and Yearbook teacher, Matt Hall, will be our 2021 Head Track Coach. Matt is known for his rapport with students, his enthusiasm and his ability to build strong relationships in any setting. Matt has been an assistant track coach at Mountain View for 2 years, as well as a Head C team and assistant coach for football. He is passionate about developing students and helping the Mountain View Track & Field program carry on the legacy of its past as a top program in the region. In Matt's words, "this is what being a HS coach really boils down to---the ability to teach them about life through sports."
Stay tuned for more details regarding off-season training and the upcoming season which will be made available on the Mountain View Athletic Website (mvhsathletics.org)

In our 4x4 block, that typically means that students need to take a minimum of 5 classes over the semester and pass them all.
