The 2024 season is Lindsey Hall's third as an assistant coach at Montana, a place where she won numerous championships during an All-America collegiate career. Hall oversees Montana’s hurdlers and multi-athletes.

In her three seasons, Hall has coached her athletes to a Big Sky Championship, a school record, and multiple All-Conference honors.

Jaydon Green will likely go down as Montana’s best sprint hurdler of all time, setting program marks in both the 60-meter indoor hurdles and the 110-meter outdoor hurdles. Green won the 2023 Big Sky Championship and advanced to the NCAA First Round in the men’s 110-meter hurdles, running a career-best time of 13.82.

The wind-aided title winning time didn’t count for the school record, but Green still holds that mark with a wind-legal 14.09. Green has the 10 fastest times in program history, running all of them while working with Hall as his coach.

Her coaching success extended to the heptathlon, where Whitney Morrison and Brooke Stayner finished in 3^rd and 4^th at the 2024 outdoor conference meet. Morrison earned All-Conference honors with a score of 5,112. Stayner finished right behind her with 4,866 points.

In 2024, a pair of freshmen under Hall’s guidance scored at the Big Sky Outdoor Championships. Jayel Dovichak (100mH) and Easton Brotherson (110mH) each finished in 7^th place in the conference in their first collegiate season.

Dovichak also scored at the 2024 Indoor Big Sky Championship in the 60-meter hurdles with a time of 8.77 seconds.

The indoor pentathlon saw Stayner finish in 6^th place with a score of 3,533.

Hall coached another Big Sky Champion in 2023, helping lead Holly Sudol to the 400-meter hurdles crown in Greeley, Colo. Sudol ran a time of 1:00.25 to win the race and also qualify for the NCAA First Round.

In addition to the champs, Hall helped lead Cutter Thatcher (400mH), Adam Maxwell (400mH), and Brooke Stayner (100mH) to point-scoring performances at the 2023 outdoor meet.

She had four of the eight point scorers under her tutelage in the women’s heptathlon at the meet. Morgan Radtke earned All-Conference honors with a 3^rd place finish and a score of 4,866. Stayner, Morrison, and Ainsley Shipman all scored for Montana as well.

Radtke doubled up on All-Conference for the season by placing 3^rd in the indoor pentathlon as well with a score of 3,618. Stayner also scored in the event with an 8^th place finish.

In the 2022 season, Radtke was the only Grizzly multi-athlete to score with a 7^th place finish.

Jansen Ziola earned All-Conference honors with a 3^rd place finish in the 100-meter hurldes and also placed 5^th in the 400-meter hurdles. Jaydon Green placed 4^th in the men’s 110-meter hurdles in the same meet.

Prior to returning to Missoula, Hall was an assistant coach at Utah State for three seasons (2018-21), working with the Aggies' jumps and multi-events groups, along with sprints and hurdles. She also served as Utah State's recruiting coordinator. During her three seasons, Hall directly helped develop 21 All-Mountain West performers, eight NCAA regionals qualifiers and four Mountain West individual champions.

During the 2020 indoor season, before the outdoor season was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Chandler Obray won an individual title in the high jump (6-9). The previous season, Hall had three athletes win titles: Hunter Simonsen (indoor high jump, 7-1.75); Kyle Brost (outdoor triple jump, 50-9.25); and Leaugen Fray (outdoor high jump, 6-11.5).

Brost became one of Utah State's top performers in recent memory, setting indoor and outdoor school records in the triple jump. He established and broke his own records several times, most recently during the 2021 outdoor season, when he reached 51-3.5.

Prior to joining the Aggies, Hall served as a volunteer assistant coach for four seasons at Montana, helping coach the Grizzlies' talented multi-events and jumps groups. She also was the sprints, hurdles, jumps and multis head coach for the Mountain West Youth Track Club.

During a decorated collegiate career, Hall won seven Big Sky Conference individual titles, was a 20-time All-Big Sky performer as a top-three finisher and set six school records. She was a four-time NCAA regional qualifier – in three different events – and twice reached the NCAA Championships in the heptathlon. As a senior in 2015, she became an All-American with a seventh-place finish in the heptathlon in Eugene, Oregon (5,603 points). Hall also qualified for NCAA regionals in the high jump (twice), javelin (twice) and 100-meter hurdles (once).

In addition to her three pentathlon titles and two heptathlon medals, Hall was also a Big Sky champion in the indoor high jump and javelin. She scored 205.5 Big Sky championships points during her career (105.5 indoors, 100 outdoors) and was named the league's most valuable athlete during the 2011 season and 2014 outdoor season, as well as the Outstanding Performer as the top scorer at the 2013 outdoor and 2014 indoor championships. Her 43 points at a single Big Sky championship meet are a league record, and her 205.5 career points are the most ever by a female. In 2014, Hall was also named the USTFCCCA Mountain Region Field Athlete of the Year.

Following college, she placed 10th in the heptathlon at the 2015 USA Track & Field Championships with a PR of 5,751 points and represented the United States at the Thorpe Cup in Germany later that summer.

Hall is a 2009 graduate of Missoula's Big Sky High School, where she was a six-time state champion in the hurdles and jumps.
