Bruce Langford 5-Time CIS National Champion Head Coach Hosted by Anthony Beyrouti

On the next installment of Interviews with Anthony Beyrouti, we sat down with Head Coach of the SFU Women's Basketball team, Bruce Langford.   Langford has been a fixture in the British Columbia basketball community for 30 years, having coached 21 years in the B.C. school system before arriving at SFU in the fall of 2001.   During his tenure at SFU, Langford has guided the Clan to seven 30+ win seasons. Entering the 2018-19 season, Langford has a career record of 426 wins and 127 losses (.770 winning percentage) and a 207-38 home record (.844 winning percentage). Since moving to NCAA in 2010-11, Langford's record is 140-91 (.606 winning percentage).   In the NCAA, Langford has guided the program  to the NCAA tournament three times, advancing to the Sweet 16 in 2013 and 2017 and the round of 32 in 2014.   During the 2014-15 season, Langford passed legendary Clan coach Allison McNeill in career wins, becoming the most successful coach in program history. McNeill compiled a 363-79 record at SFU.   In Langford’s first nine seasons at SFU the Clan competed in Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS). The Clan advanced to the CIS National Championship tournament every year under Langford, winning five CIS national championships. Langford compiled a win-loss record of 286-36 over nine seasons in CIS, including a 142-9 mark at home. During that time the Clan also had a 54-game winning streak straddling the 2009-10 and 2008-09 seasons, and a 45-game winning streak during the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons.   Twice Langford’s teams have gone undefeated. His first team in 2001-02 went 35-0 and his 2004-05 team compiled a  38-0 record, the most wins in SFU history.  Bio: https://athletics.sfu.ca/coaches.aspx...
