Aydlette spent the past decade as throws coach at his alma mater, CSU, where he was inducted into the schools Hall of Fame in 2011.   Aydlettes throwers broke nearly 20 school records and earned 35 Big South all-conference honors. One of recent throwers, Clarence Gallop, placed second at the USA Track and Field Junior Outdoor Championships and finished 24 at the IAAF Junior World Championships this summer.   Two more of his mens throwers, Rob Grabill and Richie German, competed at the USATF Junior National Championships in 2010 and 11, respectively, while womens thrower Joshlyn Noga qualified for the 2012 USATF Junior National Championships.   I am highly looking forward to working with Joshua Aydlette as no doubt all of the throwers on our team are too, James said. Coach Aydlette has a wealth of experience coaching the throws and he has a passion for living in Hawaii which makes him a perfect fit for our program. At the National Junior Track & Field Championships in Eugene last month, one of Coach Aydlettes walk-on throwers at Charleston Southern University threw a personal best in the hammer event and qualified to represent Team USA at the World Junior Championships. This is proof that Josh can not only find diamonds in the rough but he can also coach them to the best of their ability on the national stage! Prior to CSU, Aydlette was the throws coach at Roanoke College in Salem, Va., where he spent two and a half years. While there, three of his athletes won conference titles, one broke a conference record, and five school records were set. A total of 19 all-conference awards in men's and women's track were achieved under his watch.   Aydlette was recently named to the Big Souths All-Decade team. As a standout thrower, he went undefeated in the weight throw against Big South opponents during his career. He won five Big South championships in all and was named to the all-conference team 13 times. Aydlette was the first athlete in Big South Track & Field history to win the same event at the conference championship in all four years of his eligibility. Aydlette still competes in the Scottish Heavy Athletics, where he finished seventh at the 2007 World Amateur Championships.   He is married to former Jessica Dowdy and they have a three and a half year old daughter, Lily. Jessica threw for Radford University, also competed in the Scottish Heavy Athletics, where she finished fifth in the World Championships, won the National Championship in the Caber Toss in 2006, and owns a World Record in the Sheaf Toss.
