About University of Saint Francis Basketball
Saint Francis basketball is built on the foundation of player development and winning culture. Head coach Chad LaCross has created an environment where guards learn to run pace-and-space offense, big men develop footwork and basketball IQ, and every player leaves better than they arrived. The Crossroads League has shown that NAIA basketball rewards programs that commit to fundamentals and consistency, and that's exactly what you'll find here. What separates this program is the commitment to your growth beyond the court. The athletic staff invests in academic support, strength and conditioning tailored to your position, and individual skill work that translates to advanced competition. Players who come through Fort Wayne develop the kind of resilience and work ethic that carries them forward, whether to the next level or into their careers. The campus culture celebrates athletes who buy in, compete daily, and hold themselves to high standards. This isn't about empty promises. This is about a program with a clear philosophy: develop toughness, execute a system, and give yourself every chance to succeed. If you're ready to earn your opportunity and become the best version of yourself, Saint Francis is where that happens. The gap between a recruit who gets offers and one who doesn't is rarely talent alone, it's preparation. Florida Coastal Prep specializes in exactly that bridge year.
