  • Office Hours: Georgetown's Brandon Bonsey On Coaching NCAA Stars Tinoda Matsatsa & Abel Teffra + His Approach To Developing Athletes
    May 14 2025
    “I think it’s really important to celebrate the intermediate steps along the way because if you’re only thinking about the highest level of the NCAA…it gets overwhelming. You have to have those goals along the way.”We’re back with more Office Hours episodes. My guest today is someone that’s become synonymous with Hoya distance running — Brandon Bonsey, the head men’s cross country coach and longtime leader of Georgetown’s storied middle-distance program.He’s more than a decade into his coaching career on the Hilltop — Bonsey has guided the Hoyas to dozens of All-America honors, multiple Big East titles, and a steady presence at the national level across cross country and track. A proud alum himself, Bonsey competed for Georgetown from 2004 to 2009, and since returning to his alma mater, he’s played a pivotal role in both honoring the program’s legacy and evolving it for today’s generation.In this episode, we talk about what it’s like to coach at the place that shaped you, what he learned from mentors like Pat Henner and Chris Fox, and how he’s helping develop two of the most exciting young middle-distance talents in the country — Tinoda Matsatsa and Abel Teffra. We also get into recruiting at a high-academic institution, what sets the Georgetown culture apart, and how Bonsey blends emotional investment with long-view composure as a coach.This is a great one for anyone who loves hearing how tradition meets innovation in today’s NCAA coaching landscape.Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠@chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Brandon Bonsey | @thebonz21 on InstagramSUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Olipop is a prebiotic soda that tastes like a throwback to your favorite childhood drinks, but it's loaded with benefits that your body will thank you for.
