  • We want to give a special recognition to all of our Twenty Years of Faithful Service award recipients, starting with Corey Anderson!

🔹 Corey Anderson - Athletic Director

For twenty years, Corey has poured his heart and soul into Beacon Athletics, leading with servant leadership, humility, and joy. His steady presence, deep love for student-athletes, and ability to lead with both conviction and humor have shaped our culture in lasting ways. No task is too small and no challenge too big for Corey. Bushnell is profoundly better because of his faithful, people-centered, “hands on” style leadership. Corey truly bleeds blue and gold and we are all better because of it. 

Thank you for all you have done for our Bushnell community, Corey!

  • What began as an opportunity to gain coaching experience became a meaningful step toward a future of helping others for Jah’lin Green ’26.

After completing his spring internship with @kidsports4life, the interdisciplinary studies graduate reflected on how the experience strengthened both his confidence and passion for mentoring young athletes. Serving as an assistant coach, Jah’lin worked closely with children from throughout the Eugene community, developing personal skills in communication, patience, and leadership while helping create an encouraging environment for every participant.

Living with autism himself, Jah’lin felt a connection to children who face similar challenges, and he hopes to become a coach who helps young people feel supported and accepted. His experience with Kidsports also gave him a clearer picture of his future goals. Inspired by his time mentoring, he hopes to one day create a specialized track and field program that encourages children who may feel overlooked or underestimated to participate in athletics and build confidence in themselves.

Jah’lin expressed gratitude for the people who encouraged him along the way, especially Coach Walcott, who helped connect him with the internship opportunity. Reflecting on the experience, Jah’lin encourages other students to believe in themselves and embrace opportunities for growth. “Be proud of yourself,” he advised. “Just be happy of what job you’re going to get in the future.”

Great work, Jah’lin! 👏
