Albuquerque is a place where athletes dream of coming to train and develop into national champions and Olympians. “UNM has developed into a championship program and I am excited to build on the tradition established at the school. “It’s an incredible honor to join a storied program and become the next head track & field and cross country coach at the University of New Mexico,” said Gauson. Prior to arriving in Peoria, Gauson was the cross country coach and assistant track and field coach at Lamar University, where he guided the Cardinals to back-to-back Southland Conference men’s and women’s cross country titles in 20. He led the Braves to 10 Missouri Valley cross country titles, six by the men and four by the women, including this past year when Bradley swept both the men’s and women’s titles at the 2022 Missouri Valley Championships. Gauson has spent the last eight years as the head coach of the track and field and cross country programs at Bradley University in Illinois. His vision, character and his ability to recruit and develop talent, are what truly sets him apart from others and the reason why he is the right person to lead our storied program.” “Darren is a proven winner with a track record of building championship programs. “We are very excited to welcome Darren and his fiancée Kirsten to UNM,” said Nuñez. – University of New Mexico Vice President/Director of Athletics Eddie Nuñez has announced that Darren Gauson, who most recently led Bradley to 10 Missouri Valley Championships over the past eight years, has been named the head track & field and cross country coach of the Lobos.
