Mn XC Coaches of the Year
Minnesota
Cross Country Coaches of the Year – 2016
Class AA
The Minnesota High School Cross Country
Coaches Association announces its Coach of the Year winners for the 2016
season. The recipients are recognized at the fall cross country clinic.
Class AA Girls – Jerry Popp, Willmar
Jerry Popp coached Willmar to a state
runner-up finish to defending champion Edina. The Cardinals won Section
8AA and Central Lakes conference honors and their club team placed 5th at Nike
Nationals. Willmar had four all-state recipients in Jessa Hanson, Sophie
Schmitz, Kayla Rudie, and Leah Hansen. “We wanted to
put together a team that could compete at the local, state, and national level.
To achieve that high level and still continue to keep it fun and rewarding for
every member of our team. We wanted to continue to develop a passion for
running and self-improvement. Every team is special but this one included 4 girls who have
been on our team since 6th grade. They (girls program since 2005) went from not
winning a varsity meet until 4 years ago to being the 5th best team in the
United States. That took a lot of hard work and dedication.” Jerry completed his 40th season as a head coach.
Class AA Boys – Matt Gifford, Maple Grove
Matt Gifford directed Maple Grove to
their first ever podium finish with a 3rd-place showing at the state
meet. The Crimson won the Section 5AA and Northwest Suburban conference
championships. Alex Miley earned an individual podium finish as well with
a fifth-place finish (third in team scoring). The Crimson got top 30 team
finishes from Justin Brakob and Blake Iverson. “We had a ton of talented boys on the team. The boys are naturally very
strong runners. They also really bought in. They believed in the training
system and through the psychology training, really believed in themselves.” Matt completed his 4th season as head coach.
Class AA Assistant – Dave Rudie, Willmar
Dave Rudie completed his 8th season as
assistant coach for Willmar. In the past few years, the Cardinal girls
are regular top five entrants at the state meet. From Willmar head coach
Jerry Popp: “Dave is the right hand man for
our entire program. In addition to coaching, he takes care of all entries for
meets, has a big role in organizing our team banquet, and helps supervise a
fairly extensive summer running program and camp. He is a positive role model
for our team that brings an enthusiastic approach to everything he does. The
athlete comes first for Dave. He really cares about each and every runner on
the team.“
Minnesota
Cross Country Coaches of the Year – 2016
Class A
The Minnesota High School Cross Country
Coaches Association announces its Coach of the Year winners for the 2016
season. The recipients are recognized at the fall cross country clinic.
Class A Girls – Bob Bonk, Fairmont
Bob Bonk led Fairmont to the state
championship with a narrow 84-86 win over Perham, their second championship in
program history (1988 Class AA). The Cardinals won the Section 2A and
finished runner-up in the Big South conference championship to AA power
Marshall. Fairmont had three runners in the top 15 of the team scoring in
Sarah Krumholz, Jenna Pavich, and Iliana Ramon. “This team reached and exceeded all expectations this year. We were so
fortunate in that all the top runners remained remarkably healthy and injury
free throughout the season. Their work ethic and team attitude was unbelievably
great.” Bob completed his 41st season at
Fairmont. He earned COY honors in 1985.
Class A Boys – Mark Abraham, LaCrescent
Mark Abraham directed LaCrescent to the
podium with a third-place finish at the state meet. The Lancers won the
Section 1A and Three Rivers Conference meets. LaCrescent had two runners
in the top five overall at state in runner-up Matt Steiger (first team scorer)
and 2015 champion Zach Emory (4th overall and third team). “While we knew we had two solid returners, the growth of our
rank-and-file team members was fun to watch. We put five runners in the top
nineteen at the Section 1A Meet, had eight All-Conference performers and ten of
the top 24 finishers in the Conference Meet. Even resting our top seven runners
in shifts for two of our regular season meets, our depth still allowed us to
win the meets and give our non-varsity runners some valuable experience as
scoring runners.” Mark completed his 33rd
season as a head coach. Mark won girls COY honors in 2008.
Class A Assistant – Ashley Roemer, Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted
Ashley Roemer assisted Wade Moravec to a
sixth-place girls team finish at the state meet. From Head Coach Wade
Moravec: “We were set to improve our performance from the previous seasons in many
different regards. We definitely were driven to improve our placement as a
team, but to also represent our school in a respectful and responsible fashion.
We were excited to carry on our tradition of having high academic standards and
to continue representing our team well in the classroom as well as in athletic
competition.”
Ashley completed her 8th season as
assistant coach for Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted.
