#121 Al Carius & Frank Gramarosso | The NCAA's Winningest Coaching Duo

The Paul Garcia Show

Sports have been around for thousands of years. They transcend politics, teach accountability and humility, and build comradery. And if your coaches are Al and Frank, sports can help you to become a champion in the NCAA and in life. In today's episode, we dive deep into the minds of the NCAA's winningest coaching duo to see how they've led their teams to 19 NCAA DIII Track and Cross Country titles, and the individuals on those teams to success after athletics.
Al Carius, The architect of one of the most enduringly successful programs in collegiate athletics, completed 54 years as the Cardinals' head men's cross country coach at North Central College in Naperville, a city in Northern Illinois, before handing the reins to longtime assistant coach Frank Gramarosso prior to the 2020 season.
Frank Gramarosso was named the head coach of the North Central men's track and field program in August of 2010 after 28 years on the Cardinals' staff. He directly coaches North Central's sprinters, long and triple jumpers, and relay squads. Prior to the 2020-2021 academic year, Gramarosso was named the Cardinals' head men's cross country coach as well, succeeding legendary head coach Al Carius (H) '16 after 54 years.
