The boys varsity basketball team is coached by Christopher Lyons. Coach Lyons played DII collegiate basketball at Molloy College after graduating from Kellenberg Memorial in 2007. He returned to the school in 2013 as an assistant coach to Jack McCutcheon and a Physical Education/Health teacher. He is entering his third season on the sideline as the Head Coach of the program.
Coach Lyon’s roster will be limited by their lack of height this year, but they will look to run and gun and trap all over. They return many players and will look to make a deep run in the NSCHSAA playoffs this year.
