I believe that a nationally competitive cross-country program and a world-renowned undergraduate education are not mutually exclusive entities. My coaching philosophy emphasizes the full development of the student athlete during their years at IIT. That is, our athletes grow and achieve success in the classroom and as individuals in addition to competing for the Scarlet Hawks. Illinois Tech runners demonstrate hard work and good time management in the classroom and while competing. Nothing else is acceptable. In an effort to continue the full athletic development of our student athletes we have established and continue to grow the IIT track club.

The individual results speak for themselves. Our program gives the student athlete an opportunity to contribute from the first day they set their foot on campus. We want our runners to be a vital part of our team, campus and our community immediately, not just as juniors and seniors.

Among the conference elite teams, the men's cross country team's recent success includes numerous individual personal records, school records, Academic All-Americans, All-Conference runners, individual National Championship qualifiers, and multiple team titles.

I look forward to helping you explore Illinois Tech and become a member of the championship culture that is Scarlet Hawk Men's cross country.
