Chris Biser was hired to lead the cross-country programs at WVU Potomac State College on February 10, 2022. As head coach, Biser will oversee both the men’s and women’s programs.

Since 2012 Biser served as the head boy’s and girl’s coach cross-country coach for Allegany High School in Cumberland, MD.  During his time there, he revitalized the cross-country program and found consistency and success with both his boys and girls programs qualifying for states on a yearly basis. 

Biser’s teams at Allegany have produced four school record holders along with numerous athletes that have gone on to run in for NCAA Division I, II and III college programs; two of which have qualified for Nationals.

As an athlete Biser ran for the cross-country program at the Davis and Elkins College for four years during which time he was selected for the “Balanced Man Scholarship.”

“I am looking forward to the next step in my coaching career and being able to coach athletes at a very competitive level.  I’m looking forward to the challenge of getting the program numbers back up and being as competitive as the program has been in the past.”, said Biser. “I want to thank Athletic Director Mandi Larkin and the kind staff at PSC for this opportunity and I look forward to hitting the recruitment hard in the spring with the goal of filling both teams.”
