University of Miami Women’s Track and Field 5
DIRECTOR OF TRACK AND FIELD
Amy Deem, who has been the Hurricanes headwomen's track and field coach for the past 20 years,became just the sixth woman to be in charge of both themen's and women's track and cross country programs at aDivision I school, when she was promoted by Director ofAthletics Kirby Hocutt on July 22, 2008. She replaced MikeWard who retired as the head coach of the men's track andcross country teams.
Deem, elected to the UM Sports Hall of Fame in 2006,has been responsible for building the women's track andfield program from very modest beginnings into an NCAApowerhouse. Prior to her being named head coach in 1990,the Hurricanes had never had an athlete record an NCAAqualifying mark. Since then, Deem has guided 41 student-athletes to a combined 147 All-America honors and 12national championships.
Behind Deem, Miami proved its national dominance inthe hurdle events in 2010. At the NCAA Outdoor NationalChampionships the Hurricanes became the first program inhistory to have three women compete in a 400m hurdlechampionship race. Ti’erra Brown placed second, while twinsisters Tameka and Takecia Jameson placed third andeighth, respectively. Each women earned All-America acco-lades.
As a team, the Miami women finished the champi-onship in 11th-place - the highest result for UM since a sev-enth-place outcome in 2006.
Brown earned a total of three All-America distinctionson the year - increasing her career total to five - with herrunner-up performance in the 100m hurdles and a third-place showing in the 60m hurdles at the NCAA IndoorChampionships.
Brown also did something that no student-athlete hadever done at Miami. She became the first to win a U.S.Championship when she won the 400m hurdles in 54.84seconds on June 27, 2010. Tameka Jameson also compet-ed in the race - placing fifth.
The 2009 track season brought a total of six individualAll-America honors and an indoor national title. SprinterMurielle Ahoure came to Miami for her senior season to trainunder Deem and rewarded greatly for her decision.
Under Deem, Ahoure raced to the Indoor 200-meterNational Championships and earned All-America honors inthe indoor 60-meter dash and the outdoor 100 and 200-meter dashes. In addition, Ahoure broke UM legend, LaurynWilliams’ indoor 60-meter dash record, was a four-time ACCChampion and earned the ACC’s Indoor Track Performer ofthe Year Award.
As in years past, the Hurricanes hurdlers had a stellarseason under Deem’s direction. Sophomores TakeciaJameson and Ti’erra Brown advanced to the finals of the400-meter hurdles, with Brown crossing the finish line as thenational runner-up.
In her first season at the helm of the men’s program in2009, Deem saw Mikese Morse claim All-American status inthe indoor long jump with his fifth-place finish at the national
championships. Also, junior Cory Nelms (indoor 60-meter hur-dles) was the first male track athlete to claim an ACC Title thatwasn’t named Tim Harris since Lance Leggett in the 400-meter hurdles in 2006.
In 2008, Deem saw Krista Simkins win a NCAA NationalTitle in the indoor 400-meters. Also, during the indoor season,Viktoria Andonova took home All-American honors as she tiedfor ninth in the high jump at the Indoor NCAA NationalChampionships.
During the outdoor season, freshmen hurdlers, TakeciaJameson and Ti’erra Brown finished third and eighth respec-tively to earn All-American accolades in the 400-meter hur-dles. In July of 2008, Jameson ran for the United States in theJunior World Championships in Poland, where she claimedtwo world titles, in the 400-meter hurdles and the 4x100-relay.
The Hurricanes have had at least one student-athleteearn All-America honors in each of the last 19 seasons andare perennial contenders for conference championships andtop-10 national finishes. In Miami's first two seasons in theACC (2004-05 and 2005-06), Deem led the Hurricanes to con-secutive indoor and outdoor conference titles. In addition, shewas honored as the league's indoor and outdoor Coach of theYear both seasons. Miami finished tied for fifth at the 2006NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships marking theprogram's second consecutive top five finish while the teamplaced seventh at the NCAA Outdoor Championships markingthe highest outdoor finish in school history.
The 2005 season saw Miami reach unprecedentedheights. The Hurricanes finished a program-best third at the2005 NCAA Indoor Championships, which included a school-record 12 All-America honors. Miami finished ninth at the 2005NCAA Outdoor Championships, also the highest finish at thetime in school history, notching another 14 All-America honors.The Hurricanes placed second at the 2005 NCAA EastRegional Championships marking the highest finish and most
points scored (81) in the program's history. In 2004, the Hurricanes concluded their final season of
BIG EAST competition by posting one of the best seasons inschool history. Miami recorded 17 All-America honors, wonboth the BIG EAST Indoor and Outdoor Championships forthe second consecutive season, including the school's sixthBIG EAST Outdoor Championship, and placed 10th at boththe NCAA Indoor Championships and NCAA OutdoorChampionships.

Entering his third season as Miami’s jumps and multi-events coach, Calvin Robinson looks to continue the tradi-tion of excellence and return the jumps program to nationalprominence.
The jumps program saw another All-American developas Brittni Finch earned the honor in the indoor long jump.Finch also moved into fourth place in program history with aleap of 6.43m at the NCAA quarterfinals in Greensboro,N.C. Senior Deandra Doyley reached the NCAA finals in thetriple jump, finishing 12th in the nation.
High jumper Megan Novinger improved as well, movingup to second in program history with a leap of 1.80m duringthe outdoor season and third in the indoor season at 1.75m.

Robinson also saw MikeseMorse break the school record in the men’s indoor longjump, with a mark of 7.90m (25-11.00).
Also under Robinson, Novinger moved into the Miami’sall-time top-five list in both the indoor and outdoor high jumps,while scoring in each ACC Championship. Multi athletesBritney Clarke and Diego Rosado both scored in the outdoorheptathlon and decathlon respectively. Clarke also moved intoUM’s top-five with her ACC performance.
Coming to Coral Gables following a four-year stint atUTEP, Robinson hopes to bring the same success that gar-nered him the respect of his peers and led to one of his formerstudent-athletes, Blessing Okagbare bringing home a bronzemedal at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.
While at UTEP, Robinson’s athletes amassed a total of 16All-American honors and 25 individual conference champi-onships during his brief tenure, highlighted by high jumperMickael Hanany. Hanany was the 2008 NCAA High JumpNational Champion, as well as a seven-time All-American with17 individual conference championships across three disci-plines (HJ, LJ, and TJ).
Hanany would not be the only athlete to garner nationalrecognition as 2008 would prove to be a banner year forRobinson and his athletes.
With the aid of Robinson, Okagbare would rewrite theUTEP record books, finishing second in the long jump andfourth in the triple jump at the NCAA Championships duringthe indoor season and second in the triple jump and third inthe long jump at NCAA Outdoor Championships. This wouldonly be the tip of the ice berg as she would go on to win theBronze medal at the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing,with a personal best jump of 6.91 (22-8)
For his accomplishment, Robinson was recognized asthe Mountain Region Indoor Assistant Coach of Year in2008.

Shewould team up with Okagbare in helping the jumpers score20 of the teams 25 team points in route to the schools’ firstever top ten finish at the NCAA Championships in DesMoines, Iowa. This combination turned out to be the topduo in the country as UTEP would be the only universitywith two female triple jumpers breaking the 45-foot barrier.
Prior to UTEP, Robinson was the jumps coach at hisalma mater, Sam Houston State, for four years. Under hisguidance, Precious Madison became the school's firstDivision I All-American, in the long jump in 2001.

“Welcome to Miami... bienvenidos a Miami.”With 84 miles of Atlantic coastline, yearlongsunshine and a boasted average daily tem-perature of 75 degrees, it is no wonder in hishit single, Will Smith dubbed Miami “the citywhere the heat is on.”
THE HEAT ON THE COURTThanks to South Florida’s year-round, sports-friendly climate, Miami has a lot to offer inoutdoor recreational activities. From some ofthe PGA’s finest golf courses to almost 700parks, there is something for everyone. Withcountless opportunities for kayaking, scuba-diving, fishing, beach volleyball androllerblading, there is no excuse for goingwithout a tan.
South Florida truly has the perfect weather forsports and is one of only eight metropolitanareas in the United States that can boast of aprofessional franchise in each of the fourmajor sports. The Major League’s FloridaMarlins had everybody “doing the fish” whenthey won the World Series in 1997 and 2003.The NFL’s Miami Dolphins have thrilled fans fordecades at Dolphin Stadium, which hosted theSuper Bowl in 1995, 1999 and 2007. Despitethe warm weather, South Florida’s own hockeyteam, the Florida Panthers, keep up on the ice.And for basketball fans, the 2006 NBAChampion Miami Heat keep things hot at theAmerican Airlines Arena.
MIAMI IS CALIENTETruly a melting pot, Miami is home to a varietyof cultures, creating a totally unique, vibrantcultural mosaic. With representatives of everyHispanic nation in the world, Spanish serves asa second language to most of Miami’s resi-dents. Little Havana is the heart of Miami’sCuban community, where churro vendors linethe streets, the aroma of high-octane cafeCubano fills the air and the spirit of friendlycompetition fills Domino Park.
The spirit of the Caribbean is alive in LittleHaiti, where many Haitian artists, musiciansand entrepreneurs get their start in Miami. Theproud focal point of this neighborhood is theCaribbean Market, an open-air replica ofPort-au-Prince’s Iron Market, where Creole isthe dominant language.

Coconut Grove, just a 10-minute drive from theUniversity of Miami, is another studentfavorite. Built mainly by West Indian craftsmenbrought in from the Bahamas, it still holds ontothe Caribbean appeal its name suggests.Attracting writers, artists and non-conformists,this hub of the bohemian arts contributed toMiami’s cultural renaissance. Fast-forward acentury and the Grove is still one of Miami’shottest nightspots, with more than 75 cafes,restaurants and clubs that line the streets.

Downtown Coral Gables is bustling with themany offices of multi-national corporations,while the city’s central boulevard—MiracleMile—is home to a wide array of designerboutiques and art galleries.
