This episode is a conversation with Rick Croy. I found this to be a conversation filled with healing, and exploring the healing potential of servant-leadership for ourselves and others. Coach Croy explores his recognition of the opportunity to help make whole those with whom he comes into contact, using healing in leadership as a force for transformation and integration. Along the way, he highlights creating an environment that allows for others to share, listening without trying to fix, and shifting focus from the career and professional hunt towards greater service to others.
Rick Croy is the Head Men’s Basketball Coach at California Baptist University. During his 8 seasons as head coach of the Lancers, Coach Croy has compiled a 182 win - 63 loss record. CBU earned an NCAA tournament birth each season of Coach Croy’s tenure in Division II competition from 2014-2018, and the Lancers broke the NCAA record most wins in the first two seasons of the transition period into NCAA Division-I men’s basketball. In addition to time as an assistant coach at UC Riverside and St. Mary’s College, Coach Croy was also a highly successful head coach at Citrus College, winning the California Community College Athletic Association state championship in 2008. From Citrus College to CBU, each season of Coach Croy’s career as a head coach has finished with a winning record.

With the end of the college basketball season, the Love In Basketball podcast will also take a break for a few weeks. We’ll use this as time for restoration, improving the podcast, and recording new conversations with guests. We won’t be off for too long, so stay tuned. Maybe revisit conversations, listen to previous episodes you haven’t yet listened to, or continue your learnings on servant-leadership with resources provided through the show notes.
