About Occidental College Basketball

You're probably wondering how to stand out when Division III coaches are looking for players who can contribute right away, athletes who've already done the work to compete at a high level. Occidental offers exactly that environment: a rigorous SCIAC conference where you'll face quality basketball night in and night out, surrounded by teammates and coaches who understand what it takes. Head coach Brian Newhall has built a program focused on fundamentals, basketball IQ, and the kind of consistent development that shows up in games. You'll play in Los Angeles, one of the best basketball markets in the country, which means exposure and the chance to compete against strong programs regularly. The Tigers take pride in playing structured, intelligent basketball, the kind that rewards preparation and effort. What makes Occidental different isn't hype; it's honesty. You'll get real playing time opportunities if you're ready. The coaching staff invests in your growth both as a player and as a person. They're looking for athletes who want to belong to something larger than themselves, who understand that college basketball requires daily commitment. This is a place where you can compete meaningfully, improve every semester, and graduate from a rigorous academic institution. It's not easy, but it's real. If you're serious about competing at this level, the preparation has to match the ambition. Florida Coastal Prep in Fort Walton Beach, FL works with post-grad and high school athletes to build the skills that college coaches recruit. See what's possible at floridacoastalprep.com.
