About Eastern Mennonite University Basketball
At Eastern Mennonite University, basketball is built on genuine relationships. Head coach Melvin Felix and his staff prioritize knowing each player as a person—understanding what drives you both on and off the court. In the Old Dominion Athletic Conference, you'll compete against programs that challenge your development while playing in a community where you're recognized, supported, and invested in long-term. The culture here reflects the university's values: intentional, collaborative, and focused on growth. Smaller rosters mean more playing time opportunities and individualized coaching attention. You won't be a number; you'll be a key part of a close-knit team that genuinely cares about your success. Players develop within a supportive environment where coaches know your strengths, address your weaknesses directly, and help you maximize your potential. Harrisonburg offers a welcoming campus setting that encourages both athletic and personal development. The program emphasizes academic responsibility and character alongside basketball excellence. If you value a place where your coach knows your story, where teammates become lifelong friends, and where effort and improvement are celebrated—this is a program worth serious consideration. Division III basketball at EMU means balancing competition with purpose. The focus remains on becoming a better player and person, with coaching that's personal and invested.
