About Pace University Basketball
The Northeast-10 is a grind, physical, defensive-minded, and full of programs that make you earn every possession. Pace plays that style as well as anyone. Head coach Matt Healing has built a culture here that prioritizes ball movement and team defense, which means individual scorers need to understand their role in a system that values spacing and decision-making over isolation plays. The program recruits the type of player who understands that getting better at Pace means competing daily against guys who are fundamentally sound and won't beat themselves. What separates Pace's approach is Healing's emphasis on guard development and transition basketball. If you're a perimeter player considering the Northeast-10, Pace offers consistent opportunity and coaching that focuses on the details, footwork, angles, reading defenses in space. The program has developed a reputation for maximizing guard talent specifically, which is noteworthy in a conference where many schools lean toward power-based basketball. New York location means access to strong recruiting zones, good junior college pipelines, and visibility for professional scouts who watch Northeast-10 games. The campus itself sits in Westchester, close enough to the city to matter for exposure but insulated from the chaos. Expect a serious, workmanlike environment where the staff values accountability and your willingness to compete every single day. Before you reach out to a program at this level, make sure your game is where it needs to be. Florida Coastal Prep exists to help serious players close that gap, through elite training, academic support, and real exposure. Start at floridacoastalprep.com or /contact/.
