A 24-year veteran of the Razorback cross country and track and field programs, Danny Green was a four-year letterwinner and All-American for Arkansas and is now entering his 19th season as the Director of Operations for the program.
In his role as the Director of Cross Country and Track and Field Operations, Green is responsible for a myriad of duties including facilitating the Razorbacks’ equipment needs, management of all home competitions, the coordination of the Razorback coaches’ recruiting efforts and the team’s travel arrangements.
As a competitor for legendary coach John McDonnell’s juggernaut of the late 80’s and early 90s, Green earned All-America honors at 5,000 meters at the 1993 NCAA Outdoor Championship and was a member of nine Southwest Conference, six Southeastern Conference and 10 NCAA championship teams.
Over the course of Green’s tenure with the Razorbacks, Arkansas has won 25 NCAA and 57 Southwest or Southeastern Conference titles. The team has also picked up 34 NCAA trophies and claimed three national triple crowns.
After exhausting his collegiate eligibility, Green had a brief career as a professional athlete before turning his attention locally as a counselor to troubled teens at Youth Bridge. He had the honor of representing the United States at the 1993 Ekiden Relay in Chiba, Japan.
A 1995 graduate of Arkansas, Green earned a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology. He is married to the former Sarah Martucci and the couple has three children, a daughter, Sophie Jane, and two sons, Wyatt and Roman.
