Aggies Hire North Carolina Assistant Amy Smith as New Gymnastics Coach
Amy Smith has been named the head gymnastics coach at Utah State University, the school announced Monday. Smith replaces Nadalie Walsh, who is the new gymnastics coach at Illinois. "The combination of her experience and success, both as a student-athlete — winning a national championship at UCLA — and as a coach, whether it was at UCLA, Florida, Missouri or North Carolina, clearly in her progression as a coach, she is ready to take over a program of her own," USU athletic director John Hartwell said in a statement. ... "It is such a great honor to become the Aggies' fourth head coach in the history of the program," Smith said in a statement. ... "I was so inspired by the competitive drive of this team in the short amount of time that I spent with them and that made me incredibly excited about the future of this program. I cannot wait to get to Logan and get started."
