#196: Carol Lawrence-Johnson C. Smith University

Carol joins us to talk about her unique path in the coaching profession. How unique? Not withstanding she grew up in Jamaica and attended New York Tech in the US, she wasn't a track coach for more than half her career as she focused on Information Systems, computer networking, and the like for such companies as ABC News and JP Morgan Chase. Her career path took a turn when she moved to Charlotte and walked into Providence Day HS and asked "Here's my resume, do you have any jobs?". She took this opportunity to coach Field Hockey and Track and Field which led to many state titles and successful athlete such as Anna Cockrell. Carol sits down to talk about recruiting, motherhood, program expectations, transitioning from high school to college coaching and more in this exciting fun interview on the Gill Connections podcast.  WATCH ON YOUTUBE Want to have an exploratory conversation about YOUR track equipment needs?
