Keyser, W.Va. — WVU Potomac State College is proud to announce the hiring of Dave Lancaster as the new Assistant Men's & Women's Track & Field Coach, joining Head Coach Chris Biser in launching the College's inaugural Track & Field program this academic year. Lancaster brings with him 14 years of coaching experience from Allegany County Public Schools, where he played a key role in developing top-tier high school athletes, many of whom went on to earn state titles and compete at the collegiate level.

"I'm so happy to have Dave back in the coaching world with me! We both had great successes coaching high school together, and I think this momentum will continue," said Head Coach Chris Biser. "Dave brings a vast knowledge to the throwing event front. He has been to many higher-level camps, helped coach a few, and has a strong history of producing state champions and athletes who moved on to powerhouse collegiate programs. I'm thrilled to have him back alongside me, and I feel results will be noticed almost instantly."

Lancaster's deep expertise in throwing events is expected to have an immediate impact as Potomac State enters its first year of Track & Field competition. His return to coaching alongside Biser marks a reunion of a dynamic coaching duo known for fostering talent and driving athletic success.
