Tommy Strine enters his first season at Richmond after five years in administrative and coaching roles at the AAU and high school levels.
Strine coached last season at Marion High School in Indiana where he led the tradition-rich school's JV team and was an assistant coach on the varsity team. His responsibilities included player development, scouting, and game plan preparation. Marion was ranked in the top 10 in Indiana’s AP poll and finished the season with 18 wins. Strine helped coach and develop McDonald’s All-American and Indiana freshman James Blackmon Jr. while at Marion.
Strine began his coaching career as the President of Teams for Spiece Basketball in Fort Wayne, IN. During his time at Spiece, he oversaw the logistics and development of over 100 AAU teams, grades 3-12. He coached teams in all age levels while also running camps and providing individual workouts to the top players in Indiana.
Strine played one year collegiately at Anderson University before injuries cut his career short. He ranks in the top 50 in Indiana high school’s all-time scoring list, scoring over 1,600 points. He has worked camps throughout the country, while also working with the Fort Wayne Mad Ants of the NBDL. He graduated from IPFW in Fort Wayne in June of 2014 and was married in August 2014 to his wife, Sarah, and they reside in Richmond.
