John Stoudt

Coach

Stoudt also oversaw several impressive performances as the distance coach for the mens and womens track & field squads. The distance medley relay team of Leo Generali, Derek Pawlush, Greg Olenginski, and Luk Olenginski each took home a gold medal, finishing with a time of 10:29.32 at the 2015 CC Indoor Championship, while the 4X800 relay team claimed gold and reset the school record with a time of 7.48.24 at the 2015 ECAC Division III Championship meet.  Stoudts student-athletes continued to see success in the outdoor season, claiming the 4X800 CC Championship, while Luk Olenginski captured the school record in the 800 with a time of 1:53.25 and Greg Olenginski was rewarded for his work in the classroom by being named a Capital One Academic All-American.  During his time at F&M, Stoudt coached Sheena Crawley, one of the most prolific runners in F&M history, to seven of her eight All-America honors, including three All-America nods in both the 2011-12 and 2012-13 school years (cross country, indoor and outdoor track). Crawley placed 11th at nationals for cross country in 2011, was second in the mile with a time of 4:49.45 in 2013, finished third in the 1500 with the sixth fastest time ever in DIII (4:21.23) at the 2013 outdoor nationals and was a two-time Mid-East Region Track Athlete of the Year. He has coached nine Centennial Conference (CC) outdoor track champions and 11 CC indoor track champions, including F&M's first-ever 4x800 relay title team. His runners also hold 14 school records and seven conference marks.  Stoudt is intimately familiar with the local running scene. He served as the Head Cross Country Coach at Lancaster Catholic from 2001 through 2005, and as the Head Track & Field Coach at Lancaster Catholic from 2004 through 2006. He also served as a volunteer assistant coach at Conestoga Valley for several seasons.  Stoudt is an accomplished runner, having won local races such as the Market Street Mile and the Master's title at Shiver by the River Winter Series. He has also run with a group of local elite runners that claimed several long distance relays throughout the Mid-Atlantic and out West on courses ranging from 70 to 200 miles. Stoudt also placed ninth in the USATF Masters cross country national championships.  Stoudt graduated from Kutztown with a Bachelor of Science in Public Administration and completed his Masters in Education, Sports Management, at Millersville University in December of 2007. He currently works as a fitness consultant at Spooky Nook Sports. He holds a USATF Level 1 track & field coaching certification and resides in Lancaster with his wife, Michelle.
