Episode 115: A Glimpse at the Athletics and Arts at Ohlone College with Chris Warden

The Fremont Podcast

Taking a look at Ohlone College athletics, where the energy pulsates both on the field and in the stands, we take you behind the scenes with Chris Warden, the dean of kinesiology, athletics, and performing arts. Consider what it takes to create a captivating fan experience that keeps the community coming back, game after game. From the echo of basketballs on the hardwood to the sharp crack of baseball bats, we've wrapped up the essence of local sports in a way that will resonate with enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
Chris walks us through the ebb and flow of college sports and shares insight into his daily life and the secrets to managing a department as varied as the sports they oversee. From his transformation of an athletic trainer to a masterful administrator, his story unfolds, offering a playbook on how to juggle responsibilities across music, theater, dance, esports, and broadcasting. It's a peek into the personal triumphs and hurdles that shape the vibrant spirit of Ohlone College's athletics.
As we rally around the college's teams, the episode throws a spotlight on the student-athletes who are as tenacious in their studies as they are on the court. We share anecdotes that illustrate the lengths to which educators go to support their passion, and we paint a picture of the community's involvement that transcends mere spectatorship. It's more than just a game at Ohlone College; it's a celebration of camaraderie, perseverance, and the pursuit of excellence. Join us for an episode that scores on all fronts, leaving you with a deeper appreciation for the heart and hustle of community college sports.
