Field just finished his sixth season with the University of Nebraska women’s gymnastics program, serving roles as manager or volunteer coach during that time.

Nebraska gymnastics picked up a total of 12 All-America honors in either uneven bars or all-around while Field was with the Huskers. A Husker won conference bars titles in 2012, 2013 and 2015.
Field also served as Southern Utah’s volunteer coach for the 2011 season.
Field, age 24, also was the club coach at UNL, the Nebraska School of Gymnastics, and was a coach at the Southern Utah Gymnastics Academy. Field has coached at several gymnastics camps, including Lake Owen Gymnastics Camp, Flipfest and Woodward Gymnastics Camp.
