North Carolina A&T's director of track and field, Allen Johnson, announced the hiring of Terrence Trammell as an assistant coach on February 9, 2023. Trammell, a former world-class Olympic hurdler, will coach the Aggie sprinters and hurdlers.

Trammell comes to A&T after a seven-year stint as the associate head coach of the varsity track and field programs at Pace Academy in Atlanta, a K-12 co-educational, college preparatory school. During his time there, the school won consecutive state championships in 2021 and 2022. They also had one state champion, one runner-up at states, and three regional champions. They also broke six school records.

During his time at Pace, he also worked with professional athletes and various other athletes to improve their respective times as a part of his performance consulting business, Trammell Athletics.

Before starting his coaching career, Trammell had a successful 15-year career as a professional track and field athlete under USA Track & Field (USATF), the governing body for track and field. He is a two-time Olympic silver medalist in the 110-meter hurdles and three-time World Championships silver medalist in the same event. In addition, Trammell won the World Indoor Championships I the 60H twice (2001, 2006), and he finished second in the event at the same meet in 2010. Furthermore, Trammell earned a bronze medal in the 60 meters at the 2006 World Indoor Championships.

great addition to our staff. our track program has come a long way, we had "zero" former olympians on our coaching staff when i was on the track team. definitely should help "recruiting", especially since the state high school championship meet will be coming up soon at our facility...

Pretty sure this is how we just got the two kids from South West DeKalb to sign.

The curious part of the website article is the statement that he has "completed" his staff.

EAST GREENSBORO – North Carolina A&T's director of track and field, Allen Johnson, completed his staff with the hiring of assistant coach Terrence Trammell in early 2023.

Johnson had hinted all along that he would hire a jumps coach also. I suspect that the reason this article is coming out today is that he expected to hire another coach and announce them together. I wonder what changed?
