NASHVILLE - Trevecca Athletics is united in support of Austin Selby, Director of Cross Country and Track & Field, and his family as they care for one of their own.
 
One of Coach Selby's children, Sadie, is receiving ongoing mental health and addiction recovery care. As treatment costs have extended beyond insurance coverage, the Selby family is navigating a significant financial challenge. READ: Sadie's Journey
 
A lifelong runner and former collegiate student-athlete, Coach Selby is using the sport he loves and has shaped his life to support one of the people who matters most to him. From June 6–17, he will run across the state of Tennessee — traveling the long way, west to east, from Memphis to Virginia— to raise both funds and awareness for Sadie's continued healing journey.
 
The Trevecca Trojan community can follow Coach Selby's run on Facebook and Instagram at @coachselbz or @run4sadie.
 
Coach Selby took the reins of the cross country and track and field teams at Trevecca in 2013. He's led building of the cross country and track & field programs. He's produced conference champions and multiple NCAA D2 Nationals participants. He is currently coaching approximately 65 student-athletes, representing roughly 23.4% of all Trojan varsity athletes, while his programs account for approximately 4.6% of Trevecca's undergraduate enrollment.
 
Trevecca Athletics stands alongside Coach Selby and his family and encourages the Trevecca Trojan Community to support them as well through prayer, encouragement, sharing Sadie's story on your social platforms, and giving as you feel led.
