DARREN GAUSON CROSS COUNTRY COACH Second Season
2013 Information Guide

#GoCards
LAMAR CARDS CROSS COUNTRY After just a year on campus, distance and cross country coach Darren Gauson has certainly made his presence felt at Lamar.
Gauson also worked with sprinters and hurdlers, helping the group break four school records in three years.
Joining the program at the start of the 2012 cross country season, the Edinburgh, Scotland, native guided Matt Johnsen to the NCAA Championships, placing 33rd and becoming just the fourth Lamar harrier to earn All-American honors since 1969.
Prior to joining the Bulldog staff, Gauson was a standout athlete for BU for two seasons, earning a Horizon League Championship in the 1,500 meter run in 2008. He’s also a former Scottish national champion in the event, winning in both 2004 and 2005.
As the year turned to indoor season, two more of his athletes made some noise as both Joe Wade and Becky Gough took home Southland Conference indoor titles. Wade earned the mile championship, his third win of the season in the event, with a time of 4:08.80, marking the fastest time at the SLC meet since 1998. Gough won the 3,000 meter run, completing the race in 10:10.05.
A 2006 graduate of Napier University in Scotland, Gauson holds a bachelor’s degree in sport and exercise science. He completed his master’s in education at Butler in 2008. Gauson is married to the former Marbeth Shiell, and they reside in Beaumont.
During outdoor season, Wade earned his fifth Southland title with a 1,500 meter win and ended the season with the top conference times in both the 1,500 and 5,000 meter runs as well as the 3,000 meter steeplechase. Both Gough and Claire Miles also earned all-conference designation twice. Prior to Lamar, Gauson spent four seasons with Butler University, helping develop and maintain one of the most successful programs in the Horizon League. While at BU, the Bulldog men continued a streak of 14 consecutive conference championships in cross country, including a 29th place finish at the NCAA National Championships in 2008. He was also pivotal in the individual development of a number of athletes, including four All-Americans (Andrew Baker, Callum Hawkins, Steve Lisgo and Rob Mullet). 2013 Information Guide

TREY CLARK HEAD COACH 15th Season
2013 Information Guide
16
#GoCards
LAMAR CARDS CROSS COUNTRY With 14 years at the helm of the Lamar men’s and women’s track teams, Trey Clark has become the face of one of the region’s most-storied programs. Clark, a former sprinter and hurdler for the Cardinals, initially stepped foot on campus in 1988, and after serving as an assistant coach from 1994-99, he was named the school’s sixth head coach on August 11, 1999. In that time, he’s coached 71 Southland Conference individual champions, seven All-Americans and seven Southland Athletes of the Year. Arguably his most impressive accomplishment has been the re-establishment of Lamar as the dominant distance program in the Southland Conference. The Cardinal men carried home six consecutive conference cross country titles before a runner-up finish in 2012, and the women haven’t been strangers in the winner’s circle either, winning three times. Individually, five distance performers have been named to an All-American team. Francis Kasagule became the first Cardinal to earn the distinction in cross country since 1969 with a 29th place finish at the national meet in 2006, and he built on it the following year with a 24th place showing. Samuel Kosgei followed in his footsteps in 2008 with a 37th place finish, and added to it further by becoming the first-ever LU indoor track All-American in 2009.
However, Clark’s first appearance on the national scene came through his old event, hurdles. As both an assistant and head coach, the native of nearby Anahuac mentored conference champions Yamelis Ortiz and Mark LeDoux. Ortiz, a four-time conference champion in the 400 meter hurdles, became the first Lamar Olympian since 1984 by earning a spot on Puerto Rico’s 4x400 relay team at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney. LeDoux was similarly successful, taking home three 400 meter hurdle conference titles and a 12th place finish at the NCAA Championships. Clark was equally important away from Lamar, coaching LeDoux to two appearances at the USA Track and Field Nationals. A former all-conference performer and four-year letterwinner, Clark graduated from Lamar in 1993 with a degree in kinesiology. After serving as a part-time assistant in 1994, former coach Barry Collins elevated Clark to a full-time position in 1995. Clark also earned a master’s degree in kinesiology from Lamar in 1995. Clark is married to the former Laura Hughes, and the couple has two sons, Quade and Hayden.
Clark has coach two outdoor track All-Americans with both Joonas Harjamaki and Tom Wade taking home the honors in the 3,000 meter steeplechase. Most recently, Matt Johnsen placed 33rd at the 2012 Cross Country Championships to join the exclusive club.
