[Men's Track and Field] Fryman aims to elevate throws for Tigers

In the state of Kentucky, and probably farther, Georgetown College track and field's new throws coach probably needs no introduction. Andy Fryman has set records, won big titles and placed fifth in the 2016 Olympic trails.

"His qualifications speak for themselves," said Tiger coach Lucas Garnett. "He's coached NCAA All-Americans, NCAA national championship qualifiers and conference champions. He has mastered his craft personally and professionally, and we are excited to have him at Georgetown."

One of GC's track and field staples has been the strength of field competitors, most notably throwers. A strong base exists – with multiple national championship qualifiers being a thrower (javelin, shot put). Graduation meant the departure of two-time national competitor Maggie Mollak, but a host of talent returns to learn under Fryman.
