The coaching profession in high school boys’ basketball is very challenging, especially in New Jersey with the level of competition. It is also a very special community of people that help guide young men in the right direction. The pinnacle of this profession is to win either a division, conference/county, or state championship.
It symbolizes that not only you are among the best in the profession, but also a major accomplishment in life. Below is a table of all the present and past coaches that have guided their teams to the Championship Game of either the Middlesex County, or Greater Middlesex Conference Tournaments along with the number of titles they won, win-loss record, and winning percentage.
