This years CoY is someone who should have won this several times already. He’s coached multiple state champs and national finalists. He’s a coach that is well respected by his colleagues and his athletes. I have enjoyed the years of competition between our teams and look forward to seeing what else his teams accomplish. This years CoY is coach Sean O’Neil from Catholic.

Freshman Year — short, skinny, but scrappy but ruthless!! 

Freshman year — Carter would just run, did not care about zones, did not care about paces, mileage per week. Carter just walked out the door in sequoyah hills and run. 

Comparing Athletes I’ve worked with

I’ve been fortunate to work with so many great student athletes with different talent levels, all had so many ways how they would approach the sport. Some complete analytical, some made the sport their life, lived, breathed it etc.. Carter though he was none of that.. 

Carter life on the field and OFF 

Carter was a person with  a lot of passion for life in general, he had his hands in everything.. Start with his family, extremely close to his parents Jeff and Tiffany (great parents to work along side with for 4 years. and his twin sister which is the boss of the two Abigail (miss our awesome convos Abgail)  in school – top of his class, student government, in several clubs in school and part of many organizations outside of school. 

Saying that Carter was not someone that would not sit at home and go through milesplit or let’s run etc… analyze training and or put the sport on top pedestal. He was someone that would show up to practice and knew how to be present at practice and at races then knew how to leave the sport at practice and move on with the day.. 

HOW COACH SAW HIM DAILY AMONG TEAM and How easy to Coach

While at practice Carter was attention to detail though, he stayed engaged and present at practice. Always supporting his teammates at practice and at meets no matter what place he finished at the race he would turnaround and wait for everyone to finish and congratulate or encourage every competitor in the race after each race. 

Ruthless at RACES!!!

When it came to racing, again he knew how to turn on and turn off. He was one of the most competitive athletes I’ve ever worked with. His willpower to put every race on the line stood apart from everyone he would compete against. 

RACE HIGHLIGHTS – Soph 3200, JR year Mile and Footlocker Nationals 

Sophomore year state seeded 6th going into the 3200 on a 95 degree afternoon he decided to go ahead and run as fast as one could from the gun where he led the entire race until the final 300 meters and finished 2nd overall. 

His JR year ran to this day one of the most exciting races ever watched. Prior to the race I would complain as coach that his kicked lacked at the end of races and I would pound that. Well the final 200 meters the race between Carter cheeseman and Carter Couphlin went to the end and Couphlin out-leans with a time of 4:20.17 and chessman 4:20.20 to win.  “Coach what you think about my kick now.. footlocker finals his coach at wake Forest put a challenge to him to finish finish all – American. Carter out-leans for the 15th spot and finished national all American. 

Carter simply knew how to grind it out at races..

Carter continued to help build the already great tradition of the program 

His fours years part of Webb xc and track family Carter I can stay continued to help keep the tradition of our program strong and stable.. Each day he came to school and practice followed through with the mission and values of our program..

In about one minute I need to sum up several years’ worth of success. When I coached this extraordinary group of women I assumed that everyone else was like they were: committed, competitive, disciplined, well-rounded, talented, tight-knit, often brilliant. I assumed that every group would produce extraordinary leaders like we had, whose willingness to work and reach in search of a goal would inspire their teammates to work and reach with them. I assumed that every coaching staff put in the time, thought, and effort that ours did, that everyone knew as much about running, nutrition, teamwork as our staff did and that they were as committed to the goal as ours was. I thought that every group of parents and every Boosters club cared as much as ours did and functioned as flawlessly as ours did. That was not the case; this group was extraordinary in every way. Over the four-year period between 2007-2010, they won three AAA state championships and were runner-up another time by a mere 8 points. During that span they scored a total of 247 points at the AAA state meet, an average of 62 per year. They took home trophies from Great American, Jesse Owens, McCallie, and Maymont. Many of them went on to NCAA and NAIA running careers. They were really good. The young women who made up those teams have gone on to become lawyers, teachers, accountants, photographers, pilots, physical therapists, dentists, businesswomen. The seeds of their adult lives were there even then—it’s no surprise that they have grown up to persevere and to win in their adult lives. That’s who they always were, and it was revealed in their approach to cross country: they demanded excellence from themselves and were not satisfied with less. I keep thinking the same thing as I look around the room and see young athletes who in 15 years no doubt will be adults receiving this same honor: what you’re doing now matters, it’s important not only because of the great memories you’ll get to keep forever, but also because running on a cross country team both reveals and sharpens your best attributes, as it did for these women more than fifteen years ago. It’s why we do interscholastic athletics. I’m so fortunate to have been their coach, and I am so proud of them both then and now. Congratulations to
