Maurice Greene, as a volunteer Bruin coach, will specialize in the men’s 100m, 200m and 4 X 100m relay. He once held the world record in the men’s 100m (9.79/1999), won four Olympic medals (2000 – gold in the 100m and 4X100m relay; 2004 – 100m bronze, 4X100m silver) and was inducted into the USA Track & Field Hall of Fame in 2011. Johnny Gray is entering his fourth year as a full- time assistant and is the Bruins’ middle distance coach, specializing in the women’s and men’s 400m, 800m, 1,500m and 400m hurdles. Gray, a four-time U. S. Olympian in the 800m, still holds the American record in the outdoor (1:42.60) and indoor (1:45.00) 800m and was inducted into the USA Track & Field Hall of Fame in 2008.

Joining Gray as a new full-time coach is Chris Asher, who will help with the women’s and men’s 400m and 4 X 400m relay and assist in the Bruins’ recruiting efforts. For the last 10 years at Cal State LA, Asher was the Golden Eagles head coach for women’s cross country, women’s indoor track and field and women’s and men’s outdoor track and field.
