Track coach reaches deal with USADA to end career

DENVER -- Track coach Remi Korchemny agreed Monday to
permanently stay out of elite-level coaching, marking the first
time a U.S. Anti-Doping Agency case has led to a coach being
banished for doping violations.

The case is significant because it shows USADA will pursue
coaches -- not just athletes.

USADA brought charges against the 74-year-old last November,
accusing him of violating doping rules. He's best known as the
coach for sprinters Kelli White and Dwain Chambers, both of whom
tested positive for banned substances and subsequently were
suspended.
