Tuesday, December 30 Coach Kent (Head Coach / sprints) • Certified USATF Level 1 Coach • Red Cross First Aid / CPR certified Coach Kent began his coaching career while still an athlete at Azusa Pacific University (APU) by training his fellow collegiate athletes. You might remember one of them … Dave Johnson who competed in decathlon at the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games. Upon graduation from APU Coach Kent held the Jump Coach position for Rubidoux High School (Riverside, CA) for two years. He was recruited from here to Oklahoma Baptist University (OBU) to become an assistant coach where he trained track and field (T&F) athletes in all disciplines. His first year at OBU the men’s team won the national NAIA T&F title. From OBU he went to Tulsa, OK to become a full-time high school teacher / head track coach for the largest high school in the state (Broken Arrow HS). Coach Kent returned to California and settled in Roseville, CA where he became a certified personal trainer and the head sprint coach at Granite Bay High School (GBHS). His second year at GBHS the boys 4x100M relay team took 4th place at the California State T&F meet. For the 2003-2004 school year he accepted a position at Woodcreek High School as a full-time Business & Careers teacher / Head T&F coach. In May 2004, Coach Kent observed a lack of T&F development programs for youth in the greater Roseville area so he launched the Roseville Express Track Club (RETC). By the end of the summer RETC had grown to over 40 youth members. In the spring 2007 Coach Kent began teaching at both Woodcreek & Oakmont High Schools and became the co-head T&F coach at Granite Bay High School focusing on sprinters and hurdlers.
