Shane Southwell, a decorated player throughout NYC during his days at Rice High School, has steadily climbed the college coaching ranks.

With coaching stops at Robert Morris, Kansas State (Southwell’s alma mater), and most recently, Northern Illinois, the Harlem native is now on to his next coaching opportunity.

In June, it was announced that Southwell has been hired as an Assistant Coach at Northwestern University of the Big Ten Conference.

A former player with a coaching pedigree and strong connection to his NYC roots, we’re excited to see the impact that Southwell can make in Chicago.
