About
The EAC is open to athletes of all abilities from beginners to the national level. All of our members are dedicated to achieving personal records and encouraging others to enjoy racing, running/walking, jumping or throwing.
We are teachers, coaches, doctors, health workers, graduate students and volunteers as well as committed teammates. Most of all we are leaders in the community! We strive toward inclusivity and believe in spreading kindness and awareness to athletics as a form of mental health and wellness.
Team perks include team get-togethers/parties, access to the team store and a supportive group of amazing people.
Weekly practices are held Mondays 6:00PM at Farmingdale HS with Coach MaryEllen Dankenbrink and Thursdays 6:30PM Bay Shore HS with Coach Oscar Mercado.
