A two-time NCAA champion at the University of Oklahoma and a former member of the Jamaican National Team, Mike Reid is in his first season as an assistant coach for the Air Force men’s gymnastics program. Reid, a collegiate teammate of fellow Air Force assistant Sergey Resnick, joined the Academy staff following a three-year stint at the U.S. Naval Academy.
A standout technician on the pommel horse, Reid was a three-time All-American on his signature event. Finishing sixth as a sophomore and second as a junior, he capped his collegiate career with an NCAA championship in 2015 – using a 15.500 performance to become just the third OU gymnast to capture a national title on that event. Reid, who also competed on the parallel bars for Oklahoma, helped the Sooners to three runner-up finishes and the team title during his senior year.
Following his collegiate career, Reid joined the international ranks as a member of the Jamaican National Team. Representing Jamaica at the 2019 World Championships, the 2021 Central America Championships, and the 2022 Commonwealth Games, Reid became the Central American champion in both the pommel horse and parallel bars. In 2023, a skill – “The Reid” – was named after him at the Pan American Championships.
Reid began his coaching journey at the Bart Conner Gymnastics Academy in Norman, Okla., before moving on to the Southlake Gymnastics Academy in Southlake, Texas. During his tenure at Southlake, he saw the club break the record for Junior National qualifiers and send two gymnastics to the U.S. National Championships. Prior to making the transition to collegiate coaching, he also made a stop at the Texas Dream Academy in Coppell.
Reid returned to collegiate gymnastics in November 2021, when he joined the coaching staff at the U.S. Naval Academy. While balancing his training with the Jamaican National Team he helped the Midshipmen to their highest team finish at the NCAA Championships (seventh) during his first season. During his second season in Annapolis, Reid helped Navy to its first All-American since 1973, as Isaiah Drake finished eighth at the NCAA Championships.
A 2015 graduate of the University of Oklahoma, Reid majored in Health and Society and received a minor in psychology.
