Arlan "Chip" Langmaid '80 - VPA Hall of Fame
The Vermont Principals Association has named their Hall of Fame Class for 2025. Among the honored athletes and coaches is St. Johnsbury Academy's Chip Langmaid, Class of 1980. The induction ceremony will take place in May.
A brief bio from the VPA: Arlan “Chip” Langmaid was a transformative coach at St. Johnsbury Academy, dedicating 35 years to cross-country and track and field. He coached all three athletic seasons, leading the Hilltoppers to extraordinary success throughout Vermont. During his remarkable career, Langmaid guided teams to 29 Division I championships, including 13 outdoor track and field boys’ state titles, five consecutive girls’ indoor and outdoor titles from 2015-2019, and three consecutive cross-country championships. He was named Coach of the Year multiple times, including Vermont Boys Track and Field Coach of the Year in 2023. Tragically, Langmaid passed away in an accident on June 11, 2024, just days after leading the boys’ track team to their fourth consecutive Division I state championship. His legacy extends far beyond athletic achievements, embodying the highest standards of coaching, mentorship, and dedication to student-athletes.

Mr langmaid was a great teacher and mentor for many young adults. A great man and great friend to many. Although he didn’t remember me when I was up there with my son competing against stja (we lost), he was still his normal friendly self. Was an honor learning from him in my stja career. God bless and good speed to you sir and may your rest in peace. Prayers for healing to all who knew him and may his love of track and field live on in us all forever! Rip sir.
Well deserved
Awesome 👍
