Jackson Schepp joined the North Dakota State men’s and women’s track & field programs in August 2022 as the assistant coach for multi-events and pole vault.
Schepp came to NDSU after coaching at the University of St. Thomas in the 2021-22 season, guiding UST sophomore Nate Raddatz to the Summit League title in the decathlon.
Schepp coached the Tommies to a 1-3-8 finish in the decathlon at their first Summit League Outdoor Championships in 2022, with all three athletes being underclassmen. Prior to his tenure at St. Thomas, Schepp served as a volunteer assistant coach at Nebraska for the multi-events and pole vault.
“We are excited to have Jackson as part of the Bison Family and are looking forward to his leadership of our combined events and pole vault,” Keller said. “In his young coaching career, he has done an excellent job of developing his athletes to reach their potential.”
Schepp was as an assistant coach at the University of Mary from 2017-19 working with the Marauders’ multis, high jump and pole vault, coaching multiple all-conference athletes, two conference champions and four All-Americans.
Schepp competed in track & field at Concordia-Moorhead from 2013-17, where he was a two-time national qualifier (2017 indoor heptathlon, 2017 outdoor decathlon) and a two-time Academic All-American. He earned three MIAC individual conference titles, 13 MIAC all-conference honors, and holds the Cobbers’ school record in the heptathlon. Schepp was also crowned Concordia College Athlete of the Year for his achievements in competition and leadership within the community.
A native of Buffalo, Minn., Schepp earned a bachelor’s degree in exercise science from Concordia-Moorhead in 2017 and a master’s degree in kinesiology from the University of Mary in 2019.
