Eureka High School Girls Cross Country and Track and Field

The Eureka High School Girls Track & Field program is looking for an enthusiastic Jumps Coach to join our staff beginning with the Spring 2027 season.

This position will primarily be responsible for:
• Long Jump
• Triple Jump
• High Jump

We’re looking for someone who enjoys working with student-athletes and wants to help build a championship culture. Previous coaching experience is a plus, but a passion for teaching and developing young people is even more important.

Our program has a proud tradition of success, but we’re even more proud of the culture we’ve built. If you’re interested in becoming part of a supportive coaching staff and making a lasting impact on the lives of high school athletes, we’d love to talk with you.

If interested DM us or email Coach Lewis at [email protected].

#2 time in school history (1:00.25) in the 4x100 Throwers Relay for Hannah Garrett, Paige Deakin, Haley Deakin, and Elizabeth Wylie. It was a fun race to watch.

These 16 seniors have helped build Eureka Track & Field into what it is today.

Four years of showing up, competing, and setting the example.

Hard to believe it’s almost over.

Seniors—thank you for everything you’ve given to this program.

History made tonight.

We took a shot at a school record in the 4x1600 that’s stood untouched since 2004—and didn’t just break it, we shattered it. 21:22.71. That’s 21 seconds faster than the previous mark and the 2nd fastest time in Missouri history.

Brooke Samuelson – 4:49
Maddie Schepis – 5:37
Abby Smith – 5:32
Sofia Hoerchler – 5:22

Proud of this group for stepping up and making something special happen.

Brooke is such a positive person and outstanding leader on our team.

Heading into the Kansas City Relays on April 17-18, @brooke_samuelson1 says she’s ready to go all-out. Fresh off a PR in the 3,200m this past weekend (and a PR of 10:51) and a mile best of 4:52 this indoor season, Brooke will spike up for the 800m and mile and is looking to drop some serious times. Full interview 📺 is up on @runninglane’s YT channel. For more content, stay tuned! I’ll be out in Kansas City with the crew calling races 🎙️ #trackandfield #runninglane #kansascitytrack
