Red Flash men’s basketball coach Rob Krimmel earned his 100^th career head coaching victory on Nov. 30 in a 79-63 road victory at Saint Joseph’s.

Krimmel has served as the head coach of the men’s basketball team since 2012-13. The former SFU player and assistant coach has played a vital role in helping to put men’s basketball back on the map.

After the game, Krimmel’s sons, Tommy and Alex, were in attendance to give their dad a commemorative game ball. Family has always been a big part of Krimmel’s life. He focuses on creating a family-like bond between his players and staff year after year.

“Coach Krimmel is truly a great coach and really cares about not just basketball, but also us as people,” said sophomore player Bryce Laskey. “I don’t know anyone more deserving of 100 wins.”
