ANGOLA, Ind. – Trine University Assistant Vice President for Athletics Matt Land has announced the hiring of 2021 graduate Stacy Dibley as the head coach for the women's triathlon team.
"I am completely confident that coach Dibley will continue the tradition of excellence that our young Triathlon team has accomplished," said Land, "I knew it was important to keep things going after our national championship last year and promoting Stacy was crucial to that goal."
Dibley previously served as the assistant coach for the 2021 National Champion triathlon team in the fall of 2021 and served as an assistant coach for the Trine University track and field team as well. She worked to improve student-athlete training plans and aided with travel and budgeting on the operations side of things for the program.
"I am very excited to be a part of Thunder athletics and to lead this team," Dibley pointed out. "My goal since graduation has always been to help others perform at their highest potential, no matter what role I found myself in. I now have the opportunity to help these amazing student-athletes achieve that goal."
As a student-athlete for the Thunder, she was a member of the cross country and track and field teams from 2017-2021. Dibley was honored on the President's List three times in her academic career.
