Halsey took claim to one of the most impressive seasons in Cowgirl history in only her third season in Stillwater.
Halsey helped coach the Cowgirls’ middle distance group to five All-America honors and five Big 12 titles. She saw Sinclaire Johnson cross the line in Austin as the women’s 1,500-meter champion and had two other athletes in the 1,500-meter final. Jenny Martinez earned All-America honors in the same race and Molly Sughroue was a second team All-American.
Halsey also coached the women’s distance medley relay to a third-place finish at the NCAA Indoor Championships. Three of her athletes (Kaylee Dodd, Sinclaire Johnson and Molly Sughroue) were on that team that set the school record in the event.
Halsey helped the Cowgirls sweep the distance relays at Drake for the third time in program history. It’s the second time the Cowgirls have done it under her watch, while no other program has done it more than once.
Halsey’s group dominated at the conference level, with five Big 12 titles. She led the Cowgirls to win the indoor 1,000 meters, Mile and distance medley relay and the outdoor 800 meters and 1,500 meters.
Halsey helped produce success at a national level for the Cowgirls in the 2017-18 season. In her second season in Stillwater, Halsey assisted in coaching the women’s distance medley relay team, which went on to finish sixth at the NCAA Indoor Championships.
Halsey also helped coach Big 12 champions Molly Sughroue and Ariane Ballner in 2017-18. Sinclaire Johnson saw a breakout season under Halsey’s watch and found her way to Eugene, Oregon, for the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
In her first year with Oklahoma State, Halsey helped Kaela Edwards and Kaylee Dodd earn Indoor and Outdoor All-American honors and both girls to become Big 12 champions in the DMR. Under Halsey’s direction, five middle-distance runners made Regionals in the 800m and 10 athletes earned All-Big 12 honors in 2017.
Halsey came to OSU after serving as an assistant coach for Saint Louis University from 2014-16. While with the Billikens, she was a key member of the coaching staff, assisting mostly in the middle-distance and distance events for both the men’s and women’s programs. She also helped to bring athletes from across the state of Missouri and the country to SLU as one of the team’s biggest recruiters.
Halsey had tremendous success as an up-and-coming coach for the Billikens. In two years, all of her athletes set personal bests and 19 school records were broken since she joined the SLU coaching staff.
At the conference level, Halsey coached seven athletes to all-conference honors in the Atlantic 10 Conference.
Before her time at SLU, Halsey was a volunteer assistant at her alma mater North Dakota State where she helped develop NDSU into a consistent NCAA Championships qualifier, sending a contingent of seven athletes to the 2014 NCAA Championships in the 800-meter run and 200-meter dash, as well as the 100-meter hurdles and 4X400-meter relay.
As an athlete for the Bison, Halsey was a standout in the classroom as much as she was on the track.
She earned a spot on the USTFCCCA’s Academic All-America team in 2008, and was a member of the CoSIDA Academic All-America second-team in the same season.
Halsey won four Summit League titles in the 800-and 1,500-meter runs, steeplechase and 4X400-meter relay. Her 800 and 1,500, remains in the top-10 all-time lists for the Bison in all three events.
Halsey received two undergraduate degrees from NDSU, one in zoology (pre-med) and another in art with a focus on painting and photography. During her assistantship with the Bison track and field and cross country teams, she began her master’s degree in Exercise Science and is currently finishing her thesis.
Halsey is a native of Martinsdale, Montana, and the daughter of Sky and Eileen Halsey.
