Coach Ogilvie is a fair track director. He is knowledgable about most of the events and has a good understanding of the kids on his team. Although he has the qualities to be a good director, he sometimes fails in areas of one on one communication and gets too caught up in the numbers game.

Norm is a very understanding coach. He truly believes in his athletes and is willing to work with them to help them improve. At times he can be negative towards an individual, but his heart is in the right place. Definitely a passionate coach of the sport.

Norm Ogilvie is very committed to the Duke Cross Country and Track & Fields teams. He has coached at Duke for over 20 years and has created a very successful program. As a freshman it is tough to adjust to his style of coaching but that comes mostly from also adjusting to the academic rigor of Duke University.

Coach Norm and his supporting coaches are very supportive, but try to allow the team itself to work out its issues. This is good and bad. At times, everything goes well but sometimes events can quagmire into larger problems. Our team culture is very healthy as a result of trying to confront our issues with one another head on, like our coaches.
