Cross Country Coaching Staff

  Head Coach: Ben Gurczynski

Ben Gurczynski has been a runnerfor more then a decade. He as competed from the middle schoo level to the collegiate leve. As a runner from Oregon, Ben has always preferred miles of singletrack over running on pavement, which has made the rustic area of Redding a perfect fit.

Ben has been the Head Coach of Cross Country for both Simpson's Men's and Women's programs since 2007. In his first year at Simpon the Red Hawks had the highest league finish (2nd) in school history and had two runners achieve All-American status.

Besides coaching Ben spends most of his time with his beautiful wife Stephani. Married in the summer of 2006, Ben and Stephani have enjoyed settling into the Redding community.
