BANGOR, Maine – Husson University Executive Director of Athletics Christopher Parsons has announced the promotion of Allison Kondracki '22 to interim head coach of both the men's and women's cross country and track & field programs.
"We have full confidence in Allison as she steps into the interim head coaching role for the remainder of the season," said Parsons. "Her knowledge of our program, commitment to our student-athletes, and leadership within the staff make them the right person to guide this team moving forward."
Kondracki has served as an assistant coach for the track & field programs at Husson since 2022 and was a part of the women's team winning back-to-back North Atlantic Conference Championships in 2022 as a student-athlete and in 2023 as an assistant coach.
As an assistant coach, Kondracki primarily worked with sprinters and jumpers and has guided eight all-conference selections in her time on the staff with the women's team, in addition to three all-conference performers on the men's side.
"I am honored and humbled to step into the role as interim head coach," said Kondracki. "I started my journey at Husson in 2017 as a student-athlete, became an assistant coach after graduating, so being named the interim head coach has created a true full circle moment.
I am excited for this new role, and eager to see what this team will continue to accomplish during the remainder of the track and field seasons. I wish Mitch the best of luck and continued success in his next chapter."
As a student-athlete, Kondracki competed from 2017-22 on the women's track & field team, in addition to running one season of cross country in 2021, as the Eagles captured conference titles in 2018 and 2021 with Kondracki on the squad.
Individually, Kondracki was named the 2018 NAC Outdoor Track & Field Rookie of the Year, while also earning all-conference accolades eight times during career, in addition to having four individual times/distances that rank inside the top 10 all-time in program history in multiple events.
Off the track, Kondracki was named to the NAC Sportsmanship Team in 2022 and was also named to the NAC Winter/Spring All-Academic Team that same year.
Kondracki is a native of Mashpee, Massachusetts and earned her Bachelor's of Science in Exercise Science with a minor in psychology and behavioral science from Husson University in 2022, while also being a certified ACE personal trainer.
