He became a staple of the Eagles’ track and cross country programs for the next four and a half decades and became known as the Dean of Virginia Track Coaches” in the track community. Jopson led the Eagles to 24 state and ODAC titles during his tenure and took home four-straight ODAC Coach of the Year awards during his last four years before his retirement from 1978-1981. Off the track, Jopson was known widely in the academic community. Doc’s highlights included teaching at the University of Virginia’s Mountain Lake Biological Center for 15 years and discovering a previously unidentified species of salamander. BC renamed its athletic complex in his honor in 1971 and since 1981 the Old Dominion Athletic Conference has awarded the Harry G. “Doc” Jopson Award to the conference’s top men's sport senior student-athlete who exhibits the highest athletic, academic, and extracurricular achievements.
