Coaches Corner: Q&A with Track & Field Head Coach Edrick Floréal

What has been one of the most memorable and valuable parts of coaching at The University of Texas?

I think winning. That’s probably the only thing that you’re chasing on a consistent basis. Obviously, you’re developing young people and getting them to graduate and become better versions of themselves. But ultimately as a coach, I would be a hypocrite to say that winning championships, developing winners and investing in young people who can go to the next level of their life after their best in the business isn’t probably the coolest feeling.
