Girls Track
Head Coach: Kyle McKown
Hello!
I am head coach Kyle McKown!
I've been the head girls track and field coach at Clare High School since 2014 and have been coaching track and field since 2002. Our team is the defending 2022 Division III Girls Track & Field Team State Champions. I am really excited for this season because we have a great mix of veteran leaders and a lot of new/talented athletes that will get the opportunity to step into new events. My wife, Aimee and I were married last summer and both teach at Clare Middle School.
