Bowerman considered himself a teacher more than a coach--the professor of the competitive response, but none of us that preceded him got it like Steve Prefontaine. Steve became the ultimate student--he redefined the word “competitor”. Bowerman and Prefontaine would become a collaborative effort that would turn Hayward Field into a magical place.

Actually, it was Coach Bowerman who pioneered the waffle sole design.  Pre was a combination of a receptive audience, a huge dose of charisma and balls and a couple of coaches who really knew what they were doing.

Coach Dellinger retired a few years ago. 

Alberto Salazar is coaching Galen Rupp.
