Bob Braman Announces Retirement.
May 29, 2024
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Bob Braman, Florida State's legendary Track & Field and Cross Country head coach, announced Wednesday that he is retiring from coaching. Currently finishing his 21st season as a head coach at FSU, a tenure that ranks second in Seminole track and field history, Braman will conclude his coaching career at the upcoming NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships to be held next week.
Braman created a championship legacy highlighted by three NCAA men's outdoor national titles (2006, 2007 and 2008) and an ACC-record 33 conference titles (25 men's and 8 women's). The 2010-11 John McDonnell Award Winner as the nation's top coach, Braman's tenure as head coach saw FSU emerge as one of the nation's most consistent national contenders as his teams earned a combined 20 Top 10 NCAA Championship finishes. On the conference level, Braman's unmatched success included 13 men's outdoor team titles, 12 men's indoor titles, four women's outdoor titles and four women's indoor championships.
"After 24 years at Florida State University, and previously 17 years at the University of South Florida, I'm announcing my retirement today," Braman said. "It was my dream to be a collegiate coach and it's been my privilege to have lived that dream for the last 41 years. The titles and successes have been less important than the many wonderful relationships that me and my family have shared with so many great coaches and young athletes. Watching them all bloom into great successes in their own right has been rewarding beyond measure."
"To call Bob Braman a legend just isn't adequate - his impact on our program in all facets is indelible and incomparable," said Michael Alford, FSU Vice President and Director of Athletics. "All Seminoles owe Bob a debt of gratitude for the class and dignity with which he led our program, in addition to the standard of success he created. We look forward to saluting Bob and his wife, Debbie, and their family for all they've done for FSU track and field and the Seminole Athletics legacy. Bob will forever be a Seminole in the deepest sense, and we wish him and his family the very best."
Individually, Braman's impressive stable of elite performers includes two Bowerman Award Winners - Trey Cunnigham (2022) and Ngoni Makusha (2011) - and Adrian Wildschut's runner-up finish at the 2020 NCAA Cross Country Championships is the highest finish ever by a Seminole. Overall, Braman's student-athletes earned 40 individual NCAA national titles and 428 All-American honors.
Over the course of his career, Braman earned a combined total of 50 national, regional and conference Coach of the Year (COY) honors, including three consecutive USTFCCCA National of the Year honors (2006-08) for outdoor track and field. On the conference level, Braman was named ACC Coach of the Year 28 times, and he earned 19 South Region COY honors.
Braman's stature as one of the top distance coaches in the nation is borne out by the success of FSU's cross country program during his tenure. Over the last 24 years, FSU's men's team has made 15 NCAA appearances, highlighted by a runner-up finish in 2010 and a fifth-place showing in 2012. He led FSU's women's cross country team to their first three NCAA national championship appearances (2002, 2003 and 2006). FSU won the ACC triple crown in 2008-09 and 2013-14, sweeping the conference's cross country, indoor and outdoor team titles. FSU also has earned five NCAA South Region cross country team titles under Braman's leadership.
"I have been privileged to work with some of the truly great coaches in our sport here at Florida State," Braman said. "In my 21 years as head coach, we have worked together to make FSU one of the premier track and field programs in the country. I'm extremely proud of the three national championships that we won, and the dozens of ACC titles we collected, and I will miss the battles for even more of them.
"My greatest thanks goes to (former FSU athletics director) Dave Hart and Charlie Carr (former FSU senior associate athletics director) for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to lead this program back in 2003," Braman said. "I've been blessed to have many great administrators to work for and I believe that Michael Alford will take the baton and reinvest in the track and field program so the Noles can chase those nattys again.
"Debbie and I will get in our own trips now, always with our grown sons by our
sides, but I do hope to stay involved in the sport and find new ways to help young people find their path."

MADISON, Wisc - The Florida State cross country teams secured top 20 team finishes at the Nuttycombe Invitational on Friday at the Thomas Zimmer Championship Cross Country Course in Madison, Wisconsin.
As one the most prestigious regular season meets, the Seminoles battled against 32 of the 60 teams ranked in the USTFCCCA National poll.
"It was a great performance by the women's team today highlighted by Bieke Schipperen," said FSU Director of Cross Country Matt Kane.

Overall, I feel like it puts us in a really good position as we head into the second half of the season."
"I was really proud of how the women raced today," said FSU women's head coach Cody Halsey. " Last year at this race we were 30th as a team, today we finished 16th. All a testament to the work our returners and new people have been putting in day in and day out. I'm really excited for the rest of their season together."
"Bieke led the way finishing 17th overall with a time just under a minute and a half faster than last year," added Halsey "It was so rewarding to see what we both knew she was capable of come to fruition. I couldn't be more excited about the rest of her season. It was really incredible to see her take charge and run with poise and aggression from the start."
The Noles placed 16th as a team (409), securing a win over ranked opponent Iowa State (No.30). and Michigan (RV).
Racing in a field that contained 190 student-athletes, Bieke Schipperen led the women's 6k, crossing the line in 17th with a time of 20:30.2, marking the first top 20 individual finish in her career.

Highlights include a very smart run by Kidus and a big finish from Matt Neill."
"Not only that, but nearly every guy out there had a big PB on the course over last year," Frazier added. "We still have a few things to clean up late in the race, but once we do that, I'm confident that we will be in exciting spot heading into pre-nationals."

McTighe, Schipperen Captures All-ACC Honors.
CARY, N.C.- The No.13/NR Florida State Cross Country teams competed in the ACC Championship on Friday morning at WakeMed Park in Cary, North Carolina.
Agnes McTighe and Bieke Schipperen captured All-ACC honors for the women's team in the 6k by finishing in the top 21 of the race.
"I think we walk away from today with mixed feelings," said FSU head coach Cody Halsey. "Watching Agnes and Bieke finish All-ACC was a massive bright spot. Bieke was 79th this time last year and Agnes was still progressing from a knee surgery. Having a front row seat to their glow up has been incredibly rewarding. Those two gave everything they had for themselves and for our team. They both had their highest individual finish in an unprecedented deep conference meet. That's all you can ask for."
The 13th-ranked women's team has now crowned at least one All-ACC runner in every race since 2008, and at least two in four of the last five.
McTighe secured her second conference honor of her career after finishing in ninth with a career best time of 19:40.6.
Schipperen finished 16th with a time of 20:02.5, collecting All-ACC for the first time in her career. Elizabeth Barlow followed in 32nd with a time 20:22.8. Brooke Mullins competed in her first ACC Championship placing 52nd with a time 20:40.3. Anna Sentner was the fifth FSU scorer in 85th with a time 21:06.1.
The women's team placed seventh with a total of 190 points, improving from finishing 11th in 2023.
"As far as a full team, I think we are better than what we showed today," added Halsey. "Not every race will be your best. Not every day will go the way you want. All you can do is try and make some adjustments, lean on each other and get back to work. I believe we will get it right in two weeks. This is one of the best teams in the NCAA. I wholeheartedly believe that. I'm looking forward to our next opportunity at home."
The men's team was led by Joesph Farly, who finished just outside of All-ACC honors placing 25th with a career best of 23:06.9. In his third ACCs, Zach Leachman placed 62nd with a career best time of 23:40.3. Zachary Cloud was the third FSU runner, clocking a time of 23:41.3. Lucas Bouquot added a personal best time of 24:03.2. Kaden Levings rounded out the scoring for the Seminoles in 90th with a career best time of 24:06.8.
"It was a solid day for the Seminoles today out at ACCs," said assistant coach Ian Frazier. The guys did a great job of executing a conservative first half of the race before putting a big press home to the finish. Joe Farly was the highlight of our crew, as a he nearly tabbed an ALL-ACC finish after DNFing the year prior. He's been a pillar of consistency for our team this year and I'm so excited for him to continue to lead our cew into the South Regional meet in two weeks."
The Noles placed 10th as a team with 296 points.
"I'm hopeful we can use this postive momentum to our advantage before we return to ARP. Go Noles," Frazier added.

FSU Captures Seven All-Region Honors.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - The No.24/NV Florida State Cross Country teams competed at the NCAA South Regional Championship at Apalachee Regional Park on Friday morning. Using the home course advantage, the Seminoles earned seven USTFCCCA All-Region honors.
Leading the 24th-ranked women's team Agnes Mctighe, Bieke Schipperen, Elizabeth Barlow and Brooke Mullins finished within the top 25 of the women's 6k, earning All-Region. Mctighe placed fourth, marking her best finish and first career All-Region honor. Schipperen followed McTighe, placing 5th at 20:03.8.

Anna Sentner rounded out the scoring five in 60th with a time of 21.08.8.
The women have captured at least one All-Region runner since 1999.
"I can't express how incredibly proud I am of this group," said FSU head coach Cody Halsey. "Each of them had a job to do and they executed it perfectly, they ran with tenacity, guts, sheer, will and dedication. I'm beyond grateful for their trust in each other as well as what we do, day in and day out."
FSU placed third with 106 points, finishing behind No.18 Florida and ahead of No.16 Tennessee.
"We couldn't have done it without all the support. The energy out there today was electric, it was incredible," added Halsey. "I was so touched at the backing of our athletic department as well as the FSU community. It played such a valuable part in our race."
Joe Farley led the Seminoles in the men's 10k, collecting his first career All-Region honor after placing 11th with a time of 30:16.7. Cloud finished 15th (30:27.1), followed Leachman in 17th (30:28.9). Coleman Cronk (30:59.2) in 33rd and Lucas Bouquot was the final FSU scorer in 36th (31:08.1).
"Couldn't be happier with how the guys executed," said assistant coach Ian Frazier. "We've trained all year to be a team that thrives with the extra challenge of the 10k, and today the men delivered on that.
