In the first of a three part series we explore Coach Marra's rise in the coaching ranks. We discuss growing up in New York, criss-crossing the country for different coaching jobs, and the many mentors and peers he's been positively affected by over the years. Many of you know Harry as Olympian Ashton Eaton's coach, but today we focus on his life before the University of Oregon. This is part one of a three part series; in our second installment we focus on Harry's coaching philosophy/style and part three we'll have a lot of fun recounting his time with Ashton and Bri through NCAA championships (and records), professional career (and records), and Olympics (and records!).  Notice a theme?
