In the past six years, Coach Bronsan has made Newbury Park into a national powerhouse. Bronsan began as a volunteer and slowly morphed into his program. Prior to his joining the team, Newbury Park had not qualified for the state meet in over 25 years.
The Panthers have now claimed two boys’ championships, one girls’, and the coveted Nike Cross Nationals title (boys’) over the past four seasons.
In September, his top four runners finished in the top four at the Woodbridge Cross Country Classic. In the process, they set a national record.
In November, his boys’ teams accomplished a feat never done before. They secured a perfect score at the Southern Section CIF finals. That same day, the girls’ team also claimed the title.
In 2019, Bronson was named the National USTFCCCA Cross Country Coach of The Year.
