Jason Wargo - Director of Cross Country and Track and Field

The Geneva Athletic Department has turned to a familiar face to take over the Director of Cross Country and Track and Field position starting in the 2026-27 season. Jason Wargo, the current offensive coordinator on the football team and former Geneva associate head coach of track and field, was selected to assume the responsibility of leading both programs.

"I feel very honored that Dr. Troup, Athletic Director Van Zanic and the entire search committee have the confidence in me to take on this role as the leader of a program that has been so successful for so many years," says Wargo.  "It's an honor and a blessing to be able to build upon the strong foundation that is already in place here.  We want to not only be a program that wins championships, but also a program that develops high-quality, faith-driven athletes who become leaders both on the campus and in the places they serve after graduation.  This is just another example of how the Lord has been so gracious to me in my life, and I'm especially blessed to have such a wonderful wife in Rachel who has always been there to support me in everything I've been called to do.  She's a strong woman of faith, and I wouldn't be where I am without her by my side."

Wargo has deep Geneva roots.  He graduated from Geneva in 1995, competing as an offensive lineman on the football team and a thrower on the track and field team.  He returned to Geneva in 2000 as an assistant football coach, and he later served four years as the Associate Head Coach of Track and Field, beginning in 2010.
