NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana is conducting a national search for a head coach of its men's and women's track and field and cross country programs as a result of the resignation of Joseph Moses.
Moses coached XULA cross country for 13 seasons (2004, 2006-17) and track and field for nine seasons (2010-18).
Moses-coached XULA teams won a combined 27 Gulf Coast Athletic Conference team championships: 11 in women's cross country, 10 in men's cross country and six in women's track and field. This past season XULA won GCAC titles in women's cross country and track and field and finished second in men's cross country and track. XULA in 2018 set a GCAC women's track record for most points at the conference meet (258) and largest winning margin (96). XULA men's track scored in 2018 its most points ever, 123, at the GCAC meet.
"I am proud to have been a part of building the track and cross country programs at Xavier University of Louisiana," Moses said. "I am especially proud of the student-athletes that received both athletic and academic awards here. I am grateful to have worked with other great coaches, and I will miss the Xavier community."
Moses won a combined 37 coach-of-the-year awards at the GCAC and Louisiana levels. He was GCAC Coach of the Year in women's cross country and track this past season and Louisiana Coach of the Year in women's track a year ago.
"We are proud of the accomplishments of coach Moses and his teams, and we thank him for his work and success with the track and cross country programs," said Jason Horn, XULA director of athletics & recreation. "Our track and cross country programs are on a solid foundation and poised to gain additional national recognition and contend for championships on the conference and national levels. Best wishes to coach Moses in the next chapter of his career."
