cross country • Fall 2010 Coaches NORM BERNEY Head Coach Norm Berney put together Corban’s first men’s and women’s cross country teams in 2003. The Warriors competed in eight events during the season including the NAIA Region I championships hosted by the University of British Columbia. Four years ago, Norm led the women’s program to its first-ever Cascade Collegiate Conference crown and earned conference Coach of the Year honors in the process. Along with the program’s first-ever conference title, Norm guided the Warriors to their highest national ranking ever (16th) in the final NAIA poll and earned a berth to the 2007 NAIA Championships where the team finished 27th overall. Starting a cross country program is nothing new for Norm. He has been involved in the development of two new cross country programs at the high school level, producing a team district championship and a two-time individual state champion. Norm was an assistant track and cross country coach at Clackamas Community College for eight years. As the head coach in 1984, Clackamas finished second in the state and fourth in the NWACC championships. “I believe that everyone can benefit from exercise and athletic participation,” Norm said. “No one should be discriminated against because of size, speed or race, and everyone can improve and be an important part of a team. Corban is a place where athletes and students are encouraged to grow spiritually and find God’s plan for their lives.” Norm was an assistant wrestling coach at Clackamas for four years, and the head wrestling coach from 1975-77, 1978-89. He was named the Oregon Wrestling Coach of the Year five times, and National Coach of the Year in 1987. In 1992, he was installed in the National Wrestling Hall of Fame. A graduate of then-Eastern Oregon State University in 1968, Norm received his M.S. from Portland State University in 1974 and has a solid background in public relations. He has had various speaking engagements in high schools, companies and community organizations primarily in the area of education. Norm and his wife, Nancy, currently reside in Oregon City. They have a daughter, Marlies, and a son, Thomas, who graduated from Corban in 2007. KEN SCOTT Assistant Coach Ken Scott joins the Warriors for his first season as cross country assistant coach under Norm Berney. Ken graduated from Aloha High School in Aloha, Ore. where he was a four-time state champion in track & field. He still owns the Oregon H.S. state record for the 300M intermediate hurdles (36.10), in which he was ranked #1 nationally as a senior. Ken was honored as an Adidas All-American and Track & Field News Prep All- American following his senior year. Moving on to Oregon State University, Ken ran the 400M intermediate hurdles distance for the Beavers, in which he set a new OSU school record. “Coaching at Corban has given me the privilege of working with Christian athletes who show me daily how amazing God is,” said Scott. “Corban provides an atmosphere for both academic and spiritual growth.” Prior to joining the Warriors, Ken spent five years as assistant cross country coach at nearby McNary High School. Ken also served eight years as an assistant track & field coach at for the Celtics, working with the hurdles and sprints. A graduate of Oregon State University in 1982, Ken earned an Engineering degree from OSU and is currently employed as a chemist for the Oregon Department of Transportation in Salem. He and his wife, Debbie, reside in Keizer. They have two daughters, Alyssa & Chelsea, who are both students at Western Oregon University. BRADLEY BATES Assistant Coach Bradley Bates joins the Warriors for his first season as an assistant coach for the cross country teams. Bradley graduated from nearby Stayton High School before moving onto NCAA Division III member George Fox University. As a Bruin, Bradley competed three seasons on the track and advanced to the NCAA National Championships both as a sophomore and junior. During his sophomore season, Bradley helped lead the 4x400 meter relay team to the national championships before advancing as an individual in the 800 meter run during his junior campaign. “I always look to Isaiah 40:31 for strength,” said Bates. “Those words are something that I will always remember and look to teach the young athletes at Corban.” Coaching-wise, Bradley has worked with the Willamette Valley Middle School track program as well as with the Corban Track & Field team. He is currently employed as a Special Programs Instructional Assistant at Rosedale Elementary School in Salem. Bradley graduated from George Fox University in 2006. He and his wife, Kelly, currently reside in Turner. 5
