Boulanger and his staff have helped athletes achieve in- dividual titles in the New England Championships, IC4As, and many other top finishes in large meets. Three athletes have reached All- American honors as well. His teams have done exceptionally well in the America East Cham- pionships during all three seasons of running (cross-country, indoor and outdoor track and field), and Boulanger has been voted Coach of the Year for all three numerous times throughout his impressive career.

TNHdigital.com Thursday, April 7, 2016 The New Hampshire The coaches issue: Part I The New Hampshire sports staff sits down with some of UNH’s longest tenured coaches to discuss a lifetime of coaching experiences

TRACK AND FIELD Jim Boulanger: The player’s coach By RYAN PAGLIARO CONTRIBUTING WRITER

I had the pleasure of sitting down with the head coach of the men’s cross-country and track and field programs Jim Boulanger, this past Tuesday, and as athletes slowly trickled in to the Paul Sweet Oval for track practice, I was able to learn why he coaches and how he has done this for so long. I first met “Coach B” almost three years ago and he welcomed me like one of his own. His casual and friendly demeanor, eagerness and get-it-done attitude especially stood out to me. It was easy to under- stand why he is loved around the field house, and how he has been in the local athletics community for over forty years. “Local kid, and like everyone else around here I wanted to go anywhere but UNH,” Boulanger said regarding his upbringing. Bou- langer was raised in Dover, New Hampshire with his four siblings, just four miles from his current office at the University of New Hampshire. Coach B entered UNH as a health and physical education major, and had plans to try and walk onto the football team his freshman year. However, Boulanger realized he would need to stay more focused in the classroom and that football wasn’t going to work out. It wasn’t until March of 1974 during Boulanger’s junior year of college that he decided to apply to become the Oyster River High School track coach. Did I mention he did this with absolutely zero background in the sport of track and field? A former writer once wrote that the only time Boulanger had stepped on a track was to cross it to play football. “I made a pact, not only to myself, but to [the Oyster River High School track team] that I would go to clinics and everything I could to make myself a better coach,” Boulanger said. His hard work paid off and he soon found himself helping out with the UNH track and field team after his very popular high school practices. He specifically started helping with the long jump, triple jump, high jump and shot-put. Soon enough, Boulanger found himself signing the papers for the head coaching position at UNH in June of 1983, for a sport people jok- COURTESY OF ATHLETIC COMMUNICATIONS BOULANGER continued on Page 14 Jim Boulanger talks with two women’s track and field athletes before their respective events.
