Pauls second year as an assistant coach with the Montana track and field program. He coaches the Grizzlies throwers.   In his first season, Paul coached Hana Feilzer to school records in the indoor weight throw and outdoor hammer throw, and Kayla Holmes to a Big Sky Conference title in the discus. Feilzer, in the hammer, and Holmes, in the discus, both made NCAA regionals.   He spent the previous four years coaching at Central Washington.   Paul, a 2007 graduate of Eastern Washington with a degree in health and fitness, was a four-time Big Sky Conference champion for the Eagles and one of the top throwers in Big Sky history.   He won two Big Sky titles in the discus, one each in the hammer and weight throws, and nine times placed in the top three in the throws.   Paul holds the Big Sky Conference record in the hammer with a throw of 226-2, which he unleashed at the 2007 outdoor championships. He also finished first in the discus and third in the shot put at that meet to earn Field Athlete of the Meet honors.   He also claimed Field Athlete of the Meet honors at the 2007 indoor championships. He won the weight with a championships-record throw of 68-8.5, a mark that ranks third in Big Sky history, and placed third in the shot put.   Paul finished 14th in the weight throw at the 2007 NCAA indoor championships and 25th in the hammer throw at the 2007 outdoor championships.   He finished his career with a PR of 185-0 in the discus, the 10th-best mark in Big Sky history, and 56-10.5 in the shot.   Paul, a native of Yelm, Wash., earned a masters degree in athletic administration from Central Washington in 2013.
