THE PERRYMAN ATHLETIC COMPLEX ATHLETIC FACILITIES

Originally called the physical education building, it was renamed the Dennis Perryman Athletic Complex in 2005 after the longtime Athletic Director and legendary coach. Perryman died in April, 2018, leaving behind quite a legacy. The building originally opened in 1969.

During his near two decades of leadership, the football program won 75 percent of their games, winning six conference titles while qualifying for 13 bowl games including two National Championship tilts in 1997 and 2000. He retired in 2005 after 19 years.

In 1999, Perryman was inducted into the NJCAA Basketball Hall of Fame for a career that saw him win 400 games. He had coaching stops at South Plains, Northern Montana University and Dawson Community College.

THE BRONCBUSTER MURAL

In 2016, the Perryman Athletic Complex underwent a $565,000 renovation project. Part of that plan included an historical sports mural that features the history of Garden City Community College. Situated on the far right is former Broncbuster offensive lineman Phil Loadholt, who was a two-time, first-team All-American before he transferred to Oklahoma in 2006. He was taken in the second round of the 2009 draft by the Minnesota Vikings.

The original mural was designed by former Garden City graphic desiger Tiffany Heit. But the idea behind it belonged to assistant Athletic Director Colin Lamb. The production took two months before it debuted during the grand reopening of the Perryman Athletic Complex in March, 2016.

BRONCBUSTER STRENGTH

STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING PROGRAM

The Perryman Athletic Complex houses a state-of-the art weight room. In 2015, Garden City became the first program in the Jayhawk Conference to hire a full-time strength and conditioning coach, bringing in Jason Zerbach. The impact was felt immediately.

Zerbach was an instrumental piece during Garden City’s 2016 National Championship run before he left in 2017. When Tom Minnick was hired in 2018, he brought in Josh Brewer to replace Zerbach. But he was hired away by Wyoming to be their Olympic Strength Coach. The program continues to be one of the strongest in the nation.

GARDEN CITY-HOME OF THE BRONCBUSTERS

Incorporated in 1883, Garden City occupies nearly 11 square miles in southwest Kansas and has a population of 31,000 people. Considered as the regional hub of western Kansas, Garden City’s economy is fueled by agriculture with several feedlots, fields and grain elevators throughout the county.

The region’s trade area has a population of more than 190,000 people. It’s home to Garden City Community College, the Lee Richardson Zoo, and one of the finest golf courses in the Sunflower State: Buffalo Dunes.

The original town site was laid out on the south half of section 18 by engineer Charles Van Trump. Charles Jesse Jones, later known as “Buffalo” Jones, arrived in Garden City for an antelope hunt in January, 1879. One of the streets by five-point on the west side of the city is named after him.

Belinda Hendrix enters her second season as head softball coach at Garden City Community College after being appointed on May 10, 2024. Her arrival brought decades of championship experience and an immediate standard of excellence to the Broncbusters.

“I’m grateful for the opportunity to be at Garden City and excited to continue building within the Broncbuster family,” Hendrix said. “This is a special place, and I’m eager to keep growing a culture of champions on and off the field.”

Hendrix joined GCCC after the 2023–24 season at Southeast Arkansas College and one year at East Tennessee State. She previously spent 17 seasons as head coach at Chipola College (Fla.), where she earned 785 wins, three NJCAA national championships (2007, 2015, 2019), three NJCAA Coach of the Year awards, and 10 Panhandle Conference Coach of the Year honors. Her teams reached the national tournament eight times. Last season, she achieved her 800th career win, a prestigious milestone reached by only an elite group of coaches.

“I want to make this program, this college, and this community proud,” Hendrix said.

Across her career, Hendrix has coached 50 NJCAA All-Americans, two NJCAA Pitchers of the Year, nine Panhandle Conference Players of the Year, and 10 Panhandle Conference Pitchers of the Year, while maintaining a 90-percent graduation rate at Chipola.

“Coach Hendrix develops relationships, sets a championship standard, and produces results,” Pilosof said. “That’s exactly what you want leading a junior college program.”

A former player at Thomas University (Ga.), Hendrix earned her psychology degree from Troy University and began her coaching career at Vernon High School, where she won 56 games in three seasons with two district titles. She is joined on staff by her husband, Jimmy, who serves as assistant coach. The couple have two children, Madyson (24) and Jade (21).
