USA Track & Field mourns the passing of legendary coach Frank “Gags” Gagliano, who died October 25 at the age of 89.

For more than six decades, Gagliano helped shape generations of middle-distance runners, mentoring Olympians, world-class athletes and countless others throughout his remarkable coaching career.

From Georgetown to the professional ranks, his impact extended far beyond the track. Earlier this year, USATF recognized his contributions by naming the men’s 800m event at the Toyota USATF Outdoor Championships in his honor.

His legacy lives on through the athletes he coached, the lives he touched and the generations he inspired.

Our thoughts are with his family, friends and the many athletes whose lives he touched.
