Boys Varsity Cross Country

My name is Carson Durbin, and I’m proud to be returning to Reardan as the Head High School Wrestling Coach. As a Reardan alumnus, I was a two-time state placer in wrestling and am currently attending Eastern Washington University, where I compete on the EWU wrestling team and had the opportunity to wrestle at Nationals. I’m excited to continue growing my coaching career — after coaching middle school wrestling last year and middle school cross country this fall, I’m eager to step into this new role at the high school level. I also serve as a Flex Coach for Cross Country for MS/HS.

When I’m not in class or coaching, I enjoy working as a para substitute for the district, as well as spending time outdoors camping, going to the lake, and being with family.I can’t wait to get to work with our athletes and am looking forward to another great season in
the wrestling room!

Faith Matusik is an experienced coach who will be serving as our HS Wrestling Assistant Coach alongside Coach Mauzay, and as our HS/MS Cross Country Assistant Flex Coach with Coach Smedley. Additionally, she is our MS Head Track Coach.

Faith competed in middle school and high school for Cheney as a sprinter, pole vaulter, and heptathlete. She has been actively involved in helping her 4 kids who all attend Reardan. She is highly organized and structured, possessing a deep understanding of what it takes to be an athlete in these events and the importance of conditioning and form.

Tyler Smedley is currently coaching our cross country and knowledge bowl teams and is now adding tennis! Tennis was the Smedley family sport growing up. Some of Tyler’s strongest memories of childhood are doing tennis drills at the courts in Odessa, as they spent almost every weekend playing. Coach Smedley was the manager of the high school tennis team in Odessa in his middle school years and participated in tournaments at the middle and high school levels growing up. Unfortunately, Tyler’s high school (in Tenino, WA) didn’t have a boys’ tennis team, so he participated in track instead. Tyler’s mom and sisters played tennis at the collegiate level. One sister coached tennis for Ellensburg High School for many years and his brother is the current tennis coach for Harrington. Tennis runs in their blood! Tennis is a lifelong sport which teaches grit, determination and the ability to persevere, it is so awesome! Coach Smedley invites all skill levels to turn out, from those who have never held a racket to those who are a little more seasoned.
