Aaron Olswanger, Head Coach
I started out as a basketball player in high school for the Mighty Meridian Warriors. Soon after beginning to run, I was hooked and realized my potential wasn’t in basketball as a 5’9″ skinny kid, but rather in the sport of distance running. I was anxious to get out everyday to run and see how much I improved from the last time.

Brice went on to run collegiately at Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa, Idaho under Randy Dalzell.
