Humbled. Grateful. Excited.
Excited to announce that I am the new Head Coach of Oglethorpe University Women’s Basketball! Thankful for this opportunity and the recent support from family. Made some memories and relationships at LaGrange that will last forever! Time to work!
First day of official basketball practice! Advice for freshmen experiencing it for the first time to seniors going through their last. Embrace the process and never take one sprint, one fundamental rep, or one piece of coaching advice for granted! It’s time to get to work!
WBB: FEATURE - The Panthers made a big splash by hiring Jasen Jonus in April as women's basketball head coach at LaGrange College. With a talented returning group and a strong coaching staff, the sky is the limit for the Panthers. Read: |

Tough loss to end the season but I am so proud of my team for how hard they fought all year. I am blessed to have this opportunity to coach such an amazing group of young women. They made my first year as a head coach very enjoyable and I would not trade it for anything

Still trying to process this, Mike was one of my best friends in this life. He was such a passionate person, full of energy and life in everything he did. He held two things close to his heart at all times, Meg and D3 Basketball. Miss you already Mike

My thoughts are with Mike’s wife, family, coaching fraternity, those he recruited and coached, and all of those whose lives he touched.
I also wish the very best to both the SUNY Oneonta & Hartwick basketball programs who experienced everything Mike poured into
