Patrick Maschino, Lady Cubs Track “I am thrilled and honored to be able to take over this program and provide all of my athletes a fun, exciting, rewarding and healthy experience,” shares Maschino. “We will focus on building a foundation of mentally and physically strong young women to be the best in all aspects of their lives. With a strong belief in themselves, a gritty work ethic, and a high-energy environment, I am confident in what this program can accomplish as we move forward together.”

Maschino was a sprinter in junior high and high school and has three years of experience with track & field coaching while at Seymour and Madison. He was an assistant this past season working with the sprinters where his ‘Sprint Crew’ qualified for a Regional berth.
