Coach Antczak
Personal
Coach Antczak grew up in South Jordan, Utah, and graduated from Bingham High School in 2006—running side by side with Coach Shaw on the cross country and track teams. After high school, he pursued his education at Southern Utah University, where he competed in NCAA cross country and track, specializing in the 1500 meters and the steeplechase. He graduated with a double major in Psychology and Human Performance in 2013.
He went on to earn a master’s degree in Exercise and Sport Psychology from Illinois State University, followed by a Ph.D. in Exercise Science from Australian Catholic University in 2021. Most recently, he worked at the University of Wollongong in Australia, focusing on research to better understand the factors that help children be more active, sleep better, and thrive socially, emotionally, cognitively, and physically.
After several years abroad, Coach Antczak has recently returned to Utah and is excited to put down roots again.
Athletic
Coach Antczak has always had a passion for running and competition, from his high school days at Bingham to competing at the collegiate level. Though this is his first year officially coaching, the idea has been on his mind for many years. He’s always valued the positive influence his own coaches had on his life and is excited to give back in the same way—now with the added perspective of his academic background in sport psychology and human performance.
He’s particularly interested in helping athletes reach their potential not just physically, but mentally as well. While he hasn’t trained seriously since running the Chicago Marathon in 2015, he still enjoys running—when he's not recovering from the occasional injury playing indoor soccer. Coach Antczak is thrilled to be part of the program and is looking forward to helping athletes grow both on and off the course.
