Holloway enters his 20th season as the men’s head coach and 15th season as the women’s coach in 2022.
Over the course of his time in Gainesville, Holloway has transformed the Florida track and field program into one of the most consistently productive teams in the entire country.
He has won 12 NCAA Championships with Florida, his most recent coming in June of 2022 when the Gators won the NCAA Men's and Women's Outdoor Championships.
The Gators swept the team titles in the 2022 outdoor season, the first team to do so since Oregon in 2015.
Florida's women completed the sweep of the team titles with the men adding one giving the Gators 3-of-4 titles in the 2022 calendar year.
Along with his collegiate achievements, Holloway has enjoyed a great amount of success internationally. As the men’s head coach of the United States’ 2013 World Championships Team, Americans claimed 14 medals—four gold, eight silver, two bronze.

At the 2012 Olympics, Holloway coached Team USA’s sprinters and relay teams, helping the 4x400 relay squad win the silver medal and Justin Gatlin nab a bronze medal in the 100 meters.
Most recently, Holloway was named head coach to the 2020 US Men’s Track and Field Olympic Team, leading Gator Great Grant Holloway (silver - 110m hurdles) and senior Taylor Manson (bronze - 4x400 relays mixed) to their first Olympic medals.
Holloway has been named USTFCCCA National Coach of the Year 12 times during his career.

Lonnie Greene has coached the University of Kentucky track and field and cross country programs to sustained success, including school-record points finishes and two podium places at the 2022 NCAA Indoor and Outdoor Championships. In 2022, Coach Greene signed a contract extension running through 2027.
Since taking over as the head coach before the 2018-19 season, Greene has brought elite accomplishments and unparalleled character to the program. Wildcats have earned more than 150 All-America honors and dozens more All-Academic honors, to go along plenty of individual Southeastern Conference gold medals, more than a dozen NCAA individual medals and other elite performances.
As a team, both the men’s and women’s track and field teams have entrenched themselves as elite teams at the NCAA and SEC Championships level.
In 2022, the women’s track and field team earned a school-record 44 points and third place as a team at the 2022 NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships, equaling the best team finish at the competition in school history. Then outdoors, the UK women’s team earned a top-four (trophy) team finish at the Outdoor NCAA Championships for the fourth time ever. UK scored its most points at the NCAA Outdoor Championships since tallying 50 in a national runner-up finish in 2015.
Greene’s ability to build an elite program in which athletic performance meets exceptional character is perhaps best exemplified by the team’s stewardship of Abby Steiner, who in her four years at UK won three NCAA 200-meter championships, set collegiate records in the 200m indoors and out and ran a blistering fast split on the collegiate-record, NCAA Championship 4x400m relay, three SEC titles, broke the American, collegiate and SEC records, earned 14 All-America honors all while excelling academically to the tune of Academic All-America status and the honor of being named SEC Indoor Track Scholar-Athlete of the Year.
