Coach Short Hi! Just to tell a little about myself.... I am from Lincoln, IL about 40 miles south of Normal. I went to high school at Lincoln Community High School where I ran cross-country and track for 4 years. I was the first girl (and for 4 years the only girl) to run XC at LCHS! I attended college at Eastern Illinois University where I ran track and field. I was a heptathalete and 400 hurdler. I have participated in numerous state and national competitions. I have taught at Southeast High School, Stephen Decatur Middle School, and finally I began teaching at Chiddix in 2001. I teach 6th grade at CJHS, coach XC and I recently resigned as the head girls track coach at Normal West when I had my baby girl. I love teaching and coaching at Chiddix!! Over the past 6 years, we have brought home a 2nd place state trophy and qualified numerous runners and teams for the state XC meet. Just last year our girls placed 5th as a team. I am so proud to be a coach at CJHS! Since 2001, I have found at Chiddix that not only are the students and staff awesome but the parent and community involvement is tremendous! I am definitely looking forward to meeting my new team and having an AWESOME year! Go Chargers!
