Brit Daugharthy has learned quickly the difference between stepping up as a head coach in cross country vs. her three-year stint as an assistant.

“There’s a lot more organization, which I like,” she said. “As an assistant you just get to smile and nod your head a lot, and have a good time.”

Truth be told, Daugharthy is being more than a bit modest.
