Bisio has led the men鈥檚 basketball program to four Golden Valley Conference championships and has earned recognition as the 2023 California Community College Coach of the Year. His career record at CR stands at an impressive 109-36 (.751).
鈥淚鈥檓 incredibly grateful for the elevated responsibility of leading our athletic department,鈥� said Bisio. 鈥淏ecause of the heart and unwavering dedication of Bob Brown, I鈥檓 being gifted a department that鈥檚 never been in a healthier place. Although now in a different role, the focus of my work will remain the same: supporting our wonderful student athletes and coaches to the best of my ability.鈥�
With Bisio moving into his new role, the men鈥檚 basketball program will now be led by longtime Associate Head Coach Justin Claus. Claus, a CR alumnus and one of the program鈥檚 Top 25 All-Time scorers, played for the Redwoods from 2014 to 2016 and has been a key part of the coaching staff since 2019.
鈥淛ustin has worked tirelessly on behalf of our players and has earned the opportunity to lead the men鈥檚 basketball program,鈥� said Bisio. 鈥淚 and all the freshmen returning next season agree that Justin is the best person to capitalize on the continuity he鈥檚 helped create and take this program to a higher level.鈥�
Claus shared his excitement for the future: 鈥淐oaching alongside Bisio for the past five seasons has been an unforgettable experience, and I can鈥檛 overstate how much I鈥檝e learned. This program has become a source of pride for our campus and community, and I take that responsibility seriously.鈥�
