In this episode of the Gill Athletics Connections Podcast, we dive deep into the incredible journey of Brett Halter, head coach of the University of Missouri Track & Field team 🐯.

Discover how a distance runner became a world-class throws coach, hear his thoughts on the SEC's ever-evolving challenges, and learn about his approach to building not just athletes, but leaders. We also explore some behind-the-scenes moments with standout athletes like Christian Cantwell and Karissa Schweitzer, and discuss the future of Missouri's track and field program with its new world-class facilities.
