The 2021 season was Adam Bork’s 13th and final year as a full-time assistant with the Montana track & field program and his 19th season with the program overall. Bork spent one year as a graduate assistant, two as a volunteer coach and two on a half-time basis before being promoted to a full-time position from August 2017-June 2021.
A two-time All-America decathlete while competing at Montana, Bork coached the multi-events and jumps.
During Bork's tenure with the program, Montana won 29 Big Sky Conference individual titles in the jumps and multi-events, with Bork developing three All-Americans. Since 2009 alone, 19 Griz athletes qualified for NCAA regionals.
The multi-events were one of Montana's most successful events during Bork's time, with Montana athletes winning the 2019 indoor pentathlon, outdoor heptathlon and outdoor decathlon at the Big Sky championships. In the pentathlon, Erika McLeod not only won an individual conference championship, which was Montana's fourth in a row, but also set school and Big Sky Conference records for the event, qualifying for nationals with the 11th-best score in the entire country.
Lindsey Hall won six championships across the pentathlon, heptathlon and high jump, placing seventh in the heptathlon at the 2014 NCAA outdoor championships. On the men's side, Austin Emry was a two-time All-American in the heptathlon, finishing in the top 12 nationally in both 2013 and 2014. McLeod collected five Big Sky titles across three events during her decorated career, setting a Big Sky record for her pentathlon performance at the 2019 indoor championships. Jumper Sammy Evans won five Big Sky titles in the triple jump and long jump, before later competing at an Olympic Games qualification. Another versatile athlete, Jansen Ziola, won an indoor pentathlon championship, in addition to four other podium finishes, while being coached by Bork.
A former Griz standout, Bork earned All-America honors in the decathlon at both the 2001 and 2002 NCAA outdoor championships, placing 10th with 7,229 points in 2001 and sixth in 2002 with a personal-best 7,699 points. That total ranks fifth in Big Sky Conference history.
Bork was the 2002 Big Sky decathlon champion.
He continued to train for the multi-events after graduation and competed in the decathlon at the 2002 USA Outdoor Track & Field Championships and the heptathlon at the 2004 USA Indoor Track & Field Championships.
Bork and his wife, Ashild, a former Griz tennis player, have two sons, Olander and Benson, and a daughter, Tia.
