About Alfred University Basketball

Alfred University basketball under head coach Erich Kaempffe represents something increasingly rare: a Division III program that competes with the intensity and structure of much larger schools while remaining genuinely committed to student-athlete development. The Saxon compete in the Empire 8, a conference known for defensive rigor and balanced competition that rewards teams with disciplined fundamentals and resilience. What separates Alfred is how the program builds culture. Kaempffe has established a basketball environment where individual improvement and team accountability move together. Players here develop the habits that translate beyond college, how to communicate under pressure, how to prepare when resources aren't unlimited, how to lead when it matters. The upstate New York setting creates a tight-knit community where basketball is central but not isolating; you're part of something bigger than yourself. This is a program for players who value being developed intentionally. If you're drawn to a coach and staff who will invest genuine time in your game, who understand that Division III success requires excellence in the fundamentals, and who see basketball as a vehicle for building character, Alfred matches that vision. The Empire 8 demands respect and delivers real competition. Every serious recruiting conversation starts with preparation. Florida Coastal Prep, located in Fort Walton Beach, FL, trains post-grad and high school players to compete at the college level and attract the right attention.
