Sean Gwi Hired as Track & Field Assistant Coach

HANOVER, N.H. – Porscha Dobson, the Marjorie & Herbert Chase '30 Director of Track & Field and Cross Country, has announced the hiring of Sean Gwi as an assistant coach ahead of the upcoming season. Gwi will primarily help coach the sprints, hurdles and horizontal jumps.

"I am pleased to welcome Sean to our Big Green family," Dobson said. "Coach Gwi is a true student of our sport and has been able to successfully translate his knowledge to student-athletes and produce results. His passion and energy for coaching are evident and will resonate with our team and shine through in his recruiting. I look forward to working with Coach Gwi as we build upon the success of Dartmouth track & field."

Gwi spent two seasons as an assistant coach at San Jose State (2019-21), where he coached sprints and hurdles while assisting with jumps and distance-event training. During his time with the Spartans, he saw three individual and two relay school records fall, one individual and one relay Mountain West Conference champions crowned, and one individual and one relay NCAA Regionals qualifier.

Before taking the position in California, Gwi was the associate coach for the Hawaii women's track & field program (2017-19). He instructed training for all sprints, hurdles, vertical jumps, horizontal jumps and multi-event athletes, while also recruiting and hosting events for prospective student-athletes. Prior to that, he worked at Chabot College (2017), Norcal Elite Track Club (2015-17) and Laney College (2013-16).

Gwi earned a bachelor's degree in kinesiology and physical education from San Francisco State in 2009 and got his master's in coaching and athletic administration a year later.
