Suzy Cole, who has coached track and field at Baker High School since 1987, is retiring after the Class 4A state meet on May 30, 2026. She also coached cross-country for 20 seasons, as well as volleyball and basketball earlier in her career.
Cole, 62, has seen three generations of athletes and plans to help at state meets as a retired coach. She will miss the students most but looks forward to spending more time with her grandchildren.
