Brittany Sykes enters her second season as an assitant coach with the UW-Oshkosh men's and women's track & field programs in 2022-23.

Sykes, who joined Eamon McKenna as the Titans' top two assistant track & field coaches, serves as the primary throws coach for both the men's and women's programs.

Last season Sykes helped Titans throwers to one men's outdoor All-American performance and one men's outdoor All-region honor.

Sykes came to UW-Oshkosh after spending the 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons as the main throws coach at UW-Whitewater. Sykes coached one national qualifier during her tenure with the Warhawks as Daustin Martin competed in the 35-pound weight throw at the 2020 NCAA Division III Indoor Championship.

A 2015 Fort Atkinson High School graduate, Sykes was a four-year track & field letterwinner for UW-Whitewater from 2016-19. She placed fifth in the javelin and eighth in the discus at the 2016 WIAC Outdoor Championship and sixth in the javelin at the 2019 league outdoor meet. Sykes also competed in the hammer throw, shot put and 20-pound weight throw for the Warhawks.

Sykes, a three-time WIAC Scholastic Honor Roll member, earned a pair of degrees from UW-Whitewater – a bachelor's in business management in 2019 and a master's in athletics administration in 2021.
