Inspiring young and old alike

By FJ

One of SCSSC's great coaches, Mark Jeter.

Mark's first day taking selfies with skaters, parents, and his new home rink.

Coach Mark has a deep love and enthusiasm for speed skating and short-track and is excited to inspire young and old alike to share his passion for the sport in Southern California.

Mark's Accomplishments in Speed Skating 

• USS Certified Coach.
• Bronze and Silver medalist, 3000-meter relay in 1990 and 1991, US Olympic Sports Festival.
• Member of Regional Development Long Track Training Team under Gerard Kemkers 1994-1995.

No Ice? No Problem! 

Matching that level of accomplishment on ice might be enough for most of us, but not for Mark. He also participates in track and field. Coach Mark is fast—on and off the ice!

West by Midwest

Mark recently moved from Los Angeles to the Santa Clarita Valley in order to be as close as possible to the rink. We appreciate him for that! Mark hails from the Midwest: St. Louis, MO, and later Milwaukee, WS. He graduated from Stanford University in Palo Alto, CA. 

Mark is married with one child.
