(Tempe, AZ) Sun Devil Track and Field just added a powerhouse with the hiring of Arman “Gino” Hall. Hall joins Director of Track & Field and Cross Country Dion Miller‘s staff as the newest sprints coach and will work alongside Shannon Hatchett as ASU’s sprints program continues to grow. Hall was a three-time NCAA champion and 17-time All-American for the Florida Gators and earned a gold medal in the men’s 4×400 at Rio 2016 while running for Team USA. Hall most recently coached at New Mexico Junior College where he earned 2023 NJCAA National Assistant Women’s Coach of the Year honors from the USTFCCCA. Prior to NMJC, Hall worked at Arizona State from 2019-2021 as an assistant volunteer sprints coach.
Hall rounds out a hiring spree that brought in four-time USA gold medalist Ryan Whiting ’10, nine-year veteran coach Phillip Butler Jr., and Cross Country head coach Ryan Ray all in the past year.

“I’m definitely excited to add Arman to our coaching staff,” Miller said. “He comes with a wealth of experience in being an Olympian, an NCAA champion, and a phenomenal coach coming from New Mexico Junior College where he was Coach of the Year. He’ll coach the men’s short sprints and will be a great addition to our staff. We’re very excited for him to get started.”
“I’m excited to be joining Arizona State,” Hall said. “It’s a surreal feeling because while I was coaching there for two years, I was also being coached by Coach Miller. It’s a huge honor that he’s given me this opportunity and I don’t want to let him down. I want to do the best I can to help the student-athletes and I want to be the best person I can be for everyone there.”
Hall’s athletic resumé includes his 2016 Olympic gold medal in the 4×400, a 2013 gold medal at the World Championships in the 4×400, two gold medals in the 2012 World Junior Championships (4×400 and 4×100) along with a silver in the 400m open, and a pair of gold medals in the 2011 World Youth Championships (400m and medley relay). While competing with the Gators, Hall collected three SEC championships, was the 2014 SEC Indoor Men’s Runner of the Year, and earned the 2014 USTFCCCA Indoor South Region Men’s Athlete of the Year award. Hall’s name still appears 10 times in UF’s all-time indoor and outdoor top-10 lists.
As a coach with NMJC, Hall’s sprinters and hurdlers contributed to four national titles across the men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor seasons in the lone year he was there. In total, Hall coached nine national champions and 28 first-team All-Americans across the sprints and hurdles at both the indoor and outdoor NJCAA National Championships.
Before NMJC, Hall had a state championship-winning season as head coach of Miami Killian High School. Before his time at Miami Killian, Hall coached at ASU for two years where he aided Coach Miller with sprints and recruiting efforts. Prior to ASU, Hall served as volunteer assistant at University of Florida, while also training and competing in the professional ranks.
