HISTORY  OF  CORONADO  CROSS  COUNTRY
Cross Country has been a San Diego CIF sport since 1960. CHS's first year of CC was 1964.
From 1960- 1976 there were only two divisions for Boys Cross Country, Large and Small schools. Girls Cross Country did not become a sport until the Fall of 1977. In those first 13 seasons, CHS had one 2nd place finish in 1969 under coach Sunday Durland (CHS CC and Track coach 1945 - 1976), losing a close race (68 - 80) against Sweetwater HS. 1976 - Boys CC moved up from 2 miles to the now standard 5000 meters (3.1 miles).
When 1977 rolled around, Boys CC expanded to 3 divisions and Girls CC came into existence. The distance for Boys has remained at 5000 meters. The Girls distance was between 2.4 and 2.75 miles until 1998 when the 2.75 mile course was accepted for the San Diego CIF championships. When the Girls go to the State meet, they move up to 5000 meters. Since Girls CC began, Coronado HS  dominated at the CIF level to around 2017. Before 1989, both teams were in the tough Division III section. This led to many 2nd place finishes for the Girls despite having incredibly deep teams. Then in 1996, CIF again expanded to 5 divisions. This left Coronado in Div. IV, but with new competition.

*Note: One of the greatest CHS CC runners - Shamen Dugger never won an individual title. Her senior year 1987/88 she came in 2nd (14:49) at Morley behind the National CC Champion Kira Jorgenson from Rancho Buena Vista. Unfortunately, that was the only year RBV HS ran in our division.
**Note: The Morley Field course has been the CIF course for both the Boys and Girls since 1987. In 1998 the Girls course was extended from approx. 2.45 miles to 2.75.
STATE MEET

The first year the State Meet was run was in 1987, and has always been held at Woodward Park in Fresno, on the same 5000 meter course. Only four athletes have managed to make the All-State team by finishing in the top 10.  There  were 3* divisions in  '87,  '88,  and '89.  Then they expanded to the 4** division format from '90 - '95. Now there are 5 divisions, with Coronado in Div. IV. ***In 1988, the Calvin Christian girls’ team had only 4 finishers, and thus no team score.

Cross Country Coaches from 1964 - 2025
The list below was compiled from Dean Fledderjohn's input, Athletic.net,  the CIF record book, the Coronado year books, my memory, and info from many of the past coaches. The first name listed was the head coach for that year. I'm sure there are some names missing, but the main ones are there. If you see any errors or omissions, let me know.
