Coach Johanna’s hobbies include going on long runs, reading a great book and trying new recipes.

Coach Smith is also a Big Orange Cross Country and Tiger Track and Field mom.  Her son, Micah is a 2023 WLS graduate and daughter Mariska runs on the cross country and track and field teams.  Her husband, Joe was a standout runner for Bellefontaine.

We know Coach Johanna will bring big energy and a wealth of knowledge to the Big Orange Running Club.  We’re thankful to her commitment to our program.

Coach Mandy is the new head girls soccer coach at West Liberty-Salem, and will be stepping down from her coaching position with the Big Orange Running Club, but we will continue to follow her coaching template.  Don’t be surprised if you see her cheering on our athletes from time to time.

Good luck, Coach Mandy!  Thank you for all your love and support.
