When Pat Henry graduated from the University of New Mexico with a degree in physical education in 1973, he knew he would go on to coach track and field for a long time because coaching is in his blood and a huge part of his family.
Henry’s coaching career includes astounding success with 36 national team titles on the NCAA Division I level, which is the most on that level. He also won a pair of national junior college titles while at Blinn College in Brenham, Texas, and is third among coaches all-time in any sport for national team titles on any level.
