 * ABOUT COACH KATH
   
   INFORMATION. INSTRUCTION. INSPIRATION.
   
   On an early Saturday morning in the spring of 1972, a scrappy tomboy lined
   herself up on the track of the nearby college to race a 50-yard dash. Chalk
   lines carefully laid down the stretch, she looked left then right, at the
   competitors aligned; then straight ahead to a ribbon pulled across the finish
   line. Right then and there, she decided, “I shall (will) be first.”
   
    
   
   And she never looked back.
   
     
   
   Coach Kathy Devaney completed an award winning career in collegiate Field &
   Track, earning numerous conference titles and All-American honors three times
   in the discus. She participated in 3 National Championships. After
   competition, she coached for 8 years at California Polytechnic State
   University and tutored 13 All Americans and 2 National Champions.
   
    
   
   Following coaching, KathyD helped raise 4 children and coached them in their
   favorite sports. In addition to working with her own children, KathyD coached
   at the youth level for 16 years and assisted hundreds of young athletes
   pursuing the highest level of competition their skill, talent, interest,
   effort and family support allowed. Further, KathyD has served on numerous
   boards and nonprofits and has contributed to a wide range of community
   improvement causes.
   
    
   
   Kathy presently serves as Assistant Coach, Throws, at San Luis Obispo High
   School, where she has been since 2006; and continues to grow a program
   offering whole health opportunities to dozens of student-athletes each
   spring.
   
     
   
   Coach Kath lets her artistic side serve counterpoint to the joyful demands of
   rearing a family and coaching: she continues to play piano, perform with a
   cover band, paint rocks and bake delicious desserts.
   
     
   
   Even discipline takes a visionary break from time to time.
   
   
   WHAT A HERO LOOKS LIKE:
   
   
   BABE DIDRIKSON ZAHARIAS
   
   MILDRED ELLA "BABE" DIDRIKSON ZAHARIAS WAS AN AMERICAN ATHLETE WHO EXCELLED
   IN GOLF, BASKETBALL, BASEBALL AND TRACK AND FIELD. THERE JUST WASN’T ANYTHING
   SHE COULDN’T DO. AS A GIRL, GROWING UP IN THE PRE TITLE IX ‘70S,
   KATHY IDENTIFIED. SHE WAS A NATURAL ATHLETE WHO COULD SWING THE BAT, THROW
   THE FOOTBALL, RACE ON FOOT WITH TH’BEST OF TH’BOYS. 
   
    
   
   COACH KATH WANTED TO BE AS GOOD AS BABE WHO WON TWO GOLD MEDALS IN TRACK AND
   FIELD AT THE 1932 SUMMER OLYMPICS; THEN MADE AN EASY SHIFT TO PROFESSIONAL
   GOLF. ONCE AGAIN A NATURAL, BABE WON 10 LPGA MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIPS. WHILE KATHY
   NEVER REACHED THIS LEVEL OF ATHLETIC PROWESS, BABE HAS REMAINED AN
   INSPIRATION FOR KATHY'S ENTIRE LIFE. 
   
    
   
   WOMEN UP AGAINST IT, PERSEVERING. THESE ARE WHAT HEROES HAVE LOOKED LIKE TO
   COACH KATH. BABE, WILMA RUDOLPH, WYOMIA TYUS.

 * DEAR GUARDIANS AND ATHLETES, A LETTER TO YOU..
   
   
   
   BRING IT IN.
   
   HOW MANY TIMES IN MY 35 YEARS AS A COACH, HAVE I USED THOSE WORDS.
   
    
   
   ALL RIGHT EVERYBODY, BRING IT IN.
   
    
   
   THE FINAL ATHLETE ARRIVES, THE MESSING AROUND SETTLES DOWN, TRAINING CAN
   BEGIN. 90 MINUTES LATER, DRILLS AND CONDITIONING COMPLETE, IT’S WRAP UP.
   
    
   
   ALL RIGHT EVERYBODY, BRING IT IN.
   
    
   
   YOU’RE READING THIS BECAUSE YOU REALIZE IT’S TIME TO BRING IT IN; TIME TO
   OFFER LEGITIMATE, SPECIFIC, FOCUSED DIRECTION TO YOUR COLLEGE BOUND
   STUDENT-ATHLETE. I’M GLAD YOU’RE HERE. YOUR STUDENT-ATHLETE WILL BE GLAD YOU
   ARE HERE. THEIR ACADEMIC COUNSELORS AND POTENTIAL COLLEGE COACHES WILL BE
   GLAD YOU ARE HERE. FOCUS AND DIRECTION ARE YOURS FOR THE TAKING.
   
    
   
   MY JOURNEY AS AN ATHLETE, COACH, PARENT, MENTOR HAS BEEN BLESSED AND
   CHALLENGED, IN EQUAL MEASURE. I HAVE ARRIVED AT THIS PLACE TO OFFER YOU THE
   WORTHY AND WEIGHTY BEST OF THOSE BLESSINGS AND CHALLENGES. WHAT I KNOW ABOUT
   THIS PROCESS IS A LOT. QUITE FRANKLY, WHILE MY APTITUDE, EXPERIENCE AND SKILL
   SET REACH ACROSS RELATED TOPICS, THE GREATER EMPHASIS OF MY EXPERTISE LIES IN
   CONNECTING WITH YOUNG ADULTS, ASPIRING STUDENT-ATHLETES, TEENS WORKING TO
   FIGURE OUT THE ROAD RIGHT BEFORE THEM. FOR THEM.
   
    
   
   THIS TIME JUST AHEAD IS ROUGHER THAN EVER. IT WAS LADEN WITH DEMANDS BEFORE
   THE PANDEMIC. THESE DEMANDS WILL NOT BE LETTING UP ANY TIME SOON. WHAT WAS
   ALREADY AN UNEVEN PLAYING FIELD, PROMISES NO LEVELING IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
   THEREFORE, THIS IS THE RIGHT TIME FOR A WELL THOUGHT OUT PLAN. A TIME FOR
   YOUR STUDENT-ATHLETE TO BE GIVEN SPECIFIC TOOLS, EMPOWERING THEM TO MAKE
   DECISIONS FOR THEMSELVES ABOUT WHAT LOOKS BEST FOR THEM; WHAT FEELS BEST FOR
   THEM, THEIR BEST NEXT STEP.
   
   LET’S BRING IT IN. LET’S GET IT STARTED.
   
   ALL TH’BEST,
   
   KATHYD, COACH MOMMA D

   Pebble in My Shoe
   March 31, 2022
   It's not the mountains ahead that wear you out. It's the pebble in your shoe.
     Or perhaps the grain of sand.  California’s Central Coast offers a vast
   beauty, not the least of which is mild winters. This affords me the privilege
   of abundant time outdoors, hiking, biking, exercising in...

   Homecoming!
   October 29, 2021
   One of the greatest traditions of Autumn across the country. Football,
   falling leaves, returning to alma mater stomping grounds, university family
   weekends. Gathering with old friends, sometimes far away family to relish and
   renew the youthful feelings that surged when we were teens. And of...
