Episode 166 takes us all the way to Kalamazoo, Michigan, where Manny Dosanjh finds himself as an assistant coach with Western Michigan!
Manny has a great journey, starting in Brampton, Ontario, with immigrant parents who allowed him to explore his interests in the game. Manny loved hooping and found himself to be talented, earning a scholarship to a small JUCO in Michigan. After JC Manny walked on at Oral Roberts University and after some shoulder injuries, he decided to walk away from the game as a player.
Things turned quickly as Manny was offered an opportunity to coach at storied Orangeville Prep, and he jumped at the chance right away. After two years at Orangeville, he became a grad assistant at Michigan State, which led to his job at Western Michigan. The journey is a good one, for any young coaches out there, it’s a great story to hear about what it takes!
Just another example of the great coaching out there in Canada!
