John Coghlan, son of former Villanova star, takes track at Penn Relays

John Coghlan said his introduction to long-distance running was prompted by someone other than his world-renowned father, Eamonn. "I used to play soccer, but quit when I was 10 years old," said the 25-year-old from Dublin, Ireland. "A friend of mine stopped by at the house one day and said, 'Let's go running.' My dad didn't have anything to do with that."
