We are saddened to inform you that Ben Brownlee, one of our Cross Country and Track & Field coaches, died this past Saturday from a fall during a hike near Ouray, Colorado. Ben joined the Regis Jesuit community in December 2018 and was a graduate of Jesuit College Preparatory School in Dallas.
 
In informing his team of Ben’s passing, Cross Country Head Coach Andrew Drysdale wrote this:
“Coach Ben was an essential part of our coaching staff. He was a talented runner and avid outdoorsman who wanted to give back to what he loved, running. He could break down a race as it was happening, picking out who was having a good day and who wasn't as they raced past. He could say the hard things to runners when they needed it but was always racing in front of us to the finish. He loved working with the runners. He had a joy for this wonderful sport and he wanted to share his passion and positivity with everyone. He was a friend.”
 
The Brownlee family is making arrangements for a memorial service in their hometown of Dallas. 
 
Let us unite in prayer as a community for the repose of Coach Ben’s soul and the consolation of his family and all those who loved him.
