Ave Maria University Women's Basketball

I have just completed my second year as the womens head basketball coach at Ave Maria University in Ave Maria, Florida. This past season, our team finished with 18 wins, the most for the program since the 2018-2019 season.  We made our second consecutive trip to the Sun Conference Tournament and back-to-back tournament wins for the first time since the 2013-2014 & 2014-2015 seasons. I have been blessed during my short time at Ave to coach three All-Sun Conference team selections in two seasons and most recently placed two 2022-2023 All-Sun conference members, the most for the program since the 2018-2019 season. I was blessed and honored as the 2021 Sun Conference Coach of the Year, NAIA Region 6 Coach of the Year, and a finalist for NAIA National Coach of the Year. Before arriving at Ave Maria, I served as the womens head basketball coach at Deer Creek High School in Edmond, Oklahoma. During my time at Deer Creek, I coached three McDonalds All-American Nominees and assisted in guiding our team to a state tournament berth during the 2019-20 season that was not completed due to COVID. Prior to Deer Creek, I made coaching stops at California State University Maritime, Bishop McGuinness Catholic High School and Oklahoma City University.
