Assistant Coach Clive Terrelonge
Clive Terrelonge is in his second season as an Assistant Women’s Track and
Field Coach. Terrelonge completed a successful year as the Huskies’ sprints/
hurdles coach in 2004-05. His knowledge and experience as a former international
athlete helped the Huskies to take a big step in the BIG EAST Conference.
Coaching several athletes to All-BIG EAST and All-ECAC status, Terrelonge most
notably helped to excel April Garner to record-breaking speeds in the 55-meter
and the 100 hurdles, both for which she was a BIG EAST runner-up. Garner also
set new school records in the 55 hurdles and 60 during the indoor season and set
a personal best in the 200 under Terrelonge’s leadership.
Prior to coming to UConn, Terrelonge worked at Brown
University, and his alma mater, Lincoln University in Pennsylvania.
During his tenure at Brown, he helped guide the
team from the middle of the pack in the Ivy League in 2002
to a second place fi nish in 2004. Over those two years, his
sprinters broke two school records that stood for over ten
years in the 100 and the 110 hurdles. In 2004, the team had
its fi rst women’s Ivy League champion in the 100 in over
six years. At Lincoln, Terrelonge helped lead the women’s
squad to a NCAA Division III Championship and produced
eight All-American sprinters/hurdlers that year. Also during
his time as an assistant at Lincoln, the men captured six
NCAA indoor and outdoor titles and two runner-up trophies.
The men’s sprinters also set fi ve NCAA records and earned

of Science degree in health and physical education from
Lincoln in 1994.

and Field Hall of Fame at the NCAA Division III Outdoor
