#339: Alisa Seymour-Collierville (TN) High School | Building a Powerhouse and Earning National Coach of the Year
1h 50m
Alisa Seymour didn’t step into an established powerhouse — she *built* one. As the head coach of Collierville High School’s girls track and field program, she has spent over two decades cultivating not just champions, but confident young women ready for life’s next stage.
In this episode, we talk with Coach Seymour about:
* The early days of starting a program from scratch
* Creating a culture where athletes believe in themselves
* How it felt to be named USTFCCCA Girls High School National Coach of the Year
* The emotional side of coaching elite performers
* And why sometimes the small wins mean the most
