30th Anniversary of Coach Fereshetian's 1994 NCAA Team
As we kick off Conference Week and championship season, we look back at the inspirational season 30 years ago. Coach Fereshetian took his team, who had placed 10th in 1993, to the NCAA championship in 1994. At the inaugural Firetower Project Alumni Weekend in 2021, Coach Fereshetian was the keynote speaker. Check out the video of Coach Fereshetian's wisdom and insight of life as a member of Appalachian State Cross Country and that season of destiny.
