Don
Williams Named Tigers New Head Coach!
Long time assistant Don
Williams has been named the new women's track and field coach to replace Troy Becker who resigned the position (letter
below). Coach Williams is also the Head Coach for women's cross country. Erica Brenden and Josh Carnelley
will remain in their positions and a new assistant will be hired.
Dear Track & Field Family,
I have submitted my letter of resignation as head women’s track & field coach at Cedar Falls High School.
As many of you know, my job responsibilities at CFHS have changed a lot over the last 3 years. Next
year will bring about even more change as our school district shifts to a 7–12 Athletic Director. This
change will result in me being assigned additional administrative duties that will make it very difficult for me to continue
as track & field coach. It would be unfair to this great group of athletes to continue if I don’t
think I can commit myself to the program fully.
I feel extremely fortunate
to have had the opportunity to lead this program at this great school. The relationships that I have developed
through track & field are ones that I will cherish forever. I sincerely hope that the new head coach
will be open to having me hang around practice from time to time and let me help out. It would be nice
to keep involved with this fantastic group of returning and incoming athletes.
Thank you for your understanding and support. I’m looking forward to helping
and supporting the many programs at CFHS administratively so they all can achieve at the highest level.
Go Tigers!
Troy Becker

Quotes! "Listen to your dreams--those are the sounds
no one else can hear." --Kobi Yamada
"I'm convinced that a team of good character - and by that I mean a bunch of people who are
morally sound and who really care about each other - will win the close games and come through in the clutch and perform well
under adverse circumstances". Bradshaw
"What I need is about seven or eight leaders. If I'm a leader, I want to be on of a
bunch of them. Then I know we're going somewhere". Gary Carter, World series MVP
