Tracy has served as an assistant coach since the beginning of the program and was instrumental in convincing her husband to come in and coach the team.  As the athletic department's head athletic trainer, she evaluates and treats the injuries of all athletes at the college, including those of the Warrior runners.  She plays a major role in the development of the cross country scholarship program, where individuals and businesses contribute money to the team to be used by the student-athletes to help offset the costs of going to school.  She also does many of the other administrative duties that help to keep the program moving in the right direction.

Tracy is a certified athletic trainer and has served as the ATC at Lewis-Clark State College for more than a decade. She also is a member of the NATA and the Idaho Athletic Trainers Association. She is also a board member of the Idaho State Board of Medicine for Athletic Trainers and has served as its chair.
