Coaching Staff

  Glenn Lee (Head Coach)
Cross Country’s local dean, Coach Lee is in his 33rd season as the program’s head coach (37th year of coaching overall). A native of Connecticut, he is a graduate of St. Francis College (Penn.) and St. John’s University with a masters. While Coach Lee ran in high school, it was his tennis game that earned him a college scholarship. He returned to running when he started his coaching career at St. Andrew’s in 1973, then took his first head coaching job at Gulliver Prep, where he started their teams in 1975. At St. Andrew’s he was an assistant on their 1974 boys’ state title-winning squad, and had immediate success at Gulliver with two of his girls winning individual state track titles. When Coach Lee was hired at Gibbons in the Fall of 1977 to teach English, he was also hired as the boys team’s fourth head coach, and the girls team’s first.
 
In the thirty-plus seasons that have followed, the program has produced many of Gibbons’ best students, a number of whom have gone on to run in college. As South Florida’s most consistent program, Lee’s Redskin/Chief harriers and ‘Heifers’ have produced numerous championships while sending a team to the State finals every year between 1977 and 2004: a streak that stands as the state record. Coach Lee has won numerous Coach of the Year awards, is a member of the FACA (Coaches) Hall of Fame, and was inducted into the CGHS Athletic Hall of Fame in the class of 2005. He coached the track teams from 1977 through 2000, and guided Gibbons athletes to six individual state track titles. He continues to work as an assistant with the track & field program. He’s married to a fellow English teacher (Joann '71) and they have three daughters: Amy ('04), Jessica ('06), and Allison ('08). Boys and girls combined, Coach Lee has amassed over 900 wins (955-126), and that's not including the track teams or his tenure at Gulliver. His longevity and win total are believed to be county records.
 
  Peter Santamarina
In his fifth year coaching at Gibbons, Coach Santamarina has an extensive record of competing in ultra-distance races. In addition to traditional triathlons and marathons, he has completed a double-ironman triathlon on multiple occasions in recent years. Coach Santamarina is a fireman and paramedic for the city. He ran for Gibbons in 1984, his wife is an alumna, and his son (Jordan '08) graduated after running cross country.
 
  Sheena Kwaterski
Coach Sheena is in her third season coaching at Gibbons. A graduate of Key West High, she is a financial services professional with New York Life. She ran cross country and track in high school, spending half of each school year in Baileys Harbor, Wisconsin, and then graduated from Stetson University. Her mom (Mindy Keough '71) is a Gibbons alumna. Coach Sheena also helps with the track team.
 
   Steve Lyons
Coach Lyons is entering his seventh season as head track coach after retiring from a long career at Miramar High teaching science and coaching volleyball. In college, he hurdled at Western Kentucky. Coach Lyons’ son (Scott '04) ran for Gibbons.
