Brian Renshaw
Head Coach

Brian Renshaw enters his 21st season as the head coach of the cross country and track & field programs at Park University and is the longest tenured head coach currently on staff at Park.

In that time, Renshaw has sustained Park’s reputation as a perennial contender in cross country and track and field since the early 1990s. He has coached a total of 60 NAIA Track and Field All-Americans as well as ten NAIA Cross Country All-Americans in his 20 years with the University.

Renshaw's 2010 men's and women's cross country and track and field teams had stellar seasons. Park's women's squad qualified for their fifth Cross Country National Championship meet in a row and Daniel Tubei was named an NAIA Men's Cross Country All-American with his 18th-place finish at the national meet.

Renshaw also helped lead Tubei to a national championship, after he won the marathon race at the 2011 NAIA Outdoor Track and Field national championship in Marion, Ind., over 75 other competitors.

Renshaw has received dozens of accolades in his time at Park including MCAC Men’s and Women’s Cross Country Coach of the Year seven times.

Renshaw was also named the MCAC Men’s Track and Field Coach of the Year for the 2006 season and named the MCAC Women’s Track and Field Coach of the year in 2006 and 2007.

Renshaw also led the Park Men’s and Women’s Track teams to an MCAC team title in 2006.  In the fall of 2008, Renshaw led the Park Women’s Cross Country team to its fourth straight appearance in the NAIA Cross Country National Championship race in Kenosha, Wisc., and took home 25th place. Renshaw’s 2009 Women’s Cross Country squad also qualified for the NAIA’s national meet which took place in Vancouver, Wash.

Along the way, the Pirates have broken more than 100 school records in Renshaw’s term as head coach.

Before coaching at Park, Renshaw coached at Tarkio College where he also directed a winning program. In four years at Tarkio, Renshaw won four consecutive conference titles. Renshaw has coached more than 100 All-Americans. Renshaw is a graduate of Baker University and lives in Platte City, Mo., with his wife Candi.
