Assistant Coach Mark Green

Mark Green enters his first year as the assistant basketball coach for the Foresters.  Green, who graduated from Huntington College in 1994, spent five years (1998-2003) recruiting students for the college as a Senior Admissions Counselor.  During those five years, Green played a role in recruiting several of the current players and is excited about the opportunity to work with them on a daily basis.  “It was great to get to know some of the current players during the recruiting process,” said Green.  “I feel like I know a lot of them already.  They are fine young men and I am looking forward to watching them develop throughout the season.”

Green brings a variety of coaching experiences to the position.  In 1993-1995, he coached the freshmen boys’ basketball team at Columbia City High School and compiled a 32-8 record during his two years in the position.  During his five-year stint as an employee here at HC, he was able to make use of his athletic experience and degree in physical education by serving at various times as an assistant coach for the men’s soccer, golf and track teams.

Under Coach Platt, Green’s coaching responsibilities will mainly include recruiting, administrative duties, and building relationships with the players. “I know I haven’t had a lot of playing experience, so I’m not sure how much input Coach Platt will want from me in terms of strategy,” said Green, “but I’m definitely a basketball junkie and am ready to help in any way I’m needed.”

As a student-athlete for the Foresters, Green was a four-year letterwinner in both soccer and track and field.  While successful in both sports, he left his mark in track and field.  Upon his graduation, Green held both the Mid-Central Conference and Huntington College records in the pole vault.  His 15’0” vault still stands in the college’s record books.

“I’m excited to be a part of this team of great guys.  They are the type of individuals that you would want your son to grow up like.  I’m also looking forward to working with Coach Platt in a more official capacity.  I’m anticipating a great year.”

Aside from his coaching responsibilities, Green currently serves as the Director of Parks and Recreation in Columbia City.
