GREAT FALLS — Last Friday, longtime Great Falls High head cross country coach Bob Stingley announced his retirement after a 27-year tenure, where he also led the distance runners in track and field.
MTN Sports sat down with Stingley at the high school Tuesday afternoon for a conversation to look back at what is a legacy of Bison distance-running excellence.
Stingley discussed what first drove him to become a coach, why he wanted to coach distance running specifically, being a part of two state championship teams, a favorite unique memory, and what its meant to be a Bison for as long as he has.
