Kevin Hanson Head Coach UBC Men's Basketball and Winningest Coach in Canada West History

On this episode, we had the pleasure of chatting with Head Coach of UBC Men's Basketball and Winningest Coach in Canada West History, Kevin Hanson.   Bio courtesy of: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?v=K73ddWUpnGg&event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbElncTdWS3YwWGVOcjNLcnRpSVZRVWNnbzNyZ3xBQ3Jtc0tsTm1JLU1ral81ZVdRQkRJTzZrZGxGODZVN1VXczd5b2lZeHM3a1dqTTFSMVVfZTl5emJ2SzRfWTkzUUlDMy1ZWFdTd1htRTZwRkxZakJZWGtKOHctc2VxOWpLLTVkcGJxd0FqeDZCSjJHRUtPcldYZw%3D%3D&q=https%3A%2F%2Fgothunderbirds.ca%2Fsports%2Fmens-basketball%2Froster%2Fcoaches%2Fkevin-hanson%2F2808" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://gothunderbirds.ca/sports/mens...</a>  UBC’s Kevin Hanson is one of most decorated head coaches in the Canada West, and all of U SPORTS. He enters his 20th season at UBC with 304 conference victories, and is the wins leader amongst current Canada West coaches. Hanson trails just Don Horwood (313) on the league’s all-time list. Hanson also holds the best regular season winning percentage in Canada West for active coaches at .770.   In the 2018-19, the Thunderbirds won 17 of 20 regular season games for the second year in a row. UBC went the distance in a pair of best-of-three series to advance to the Canada West final, where the team fell to Calgary. At the U SPORTS Final 8, the T-Birds battled to a fifth-place finish with a record of 2-1.   The 2017-18 campaign saw fifth-year forward Conor Morgan earn Canada West Player of the Year recognition for the second time in a row.   Hanson was an assistant coach with the Canadian team that, with UBC stars Morgan and Grant Shephard, won silver at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast, Australia. At the end of the 2016-17 campaign, Hanson was recognized as the Canada West’s Coach of the Year. It was the sixth time he achieved this feat, tied for the most in league history. Hanson previously merited the honour in 2002, 2006, 2009, 2010, and 2011. In 2006 and 2010, he was named the U SPORTS Coach of the Year.   The 2016-17 edition of Hanson’s T-Birds went 19-1 in league play, improving their regular season record for the third-consecutive season. In addition to the coaching honour, UBC team members also earned three other major conference awards: Player of the Year (Morgan), Defensive Player of the Year (Jordan Jensen-Whyte), and the Ken Shields Award nomination for excellence in basketball, academics and community involvement (Phil Jalalpoor).   In 2015-16, Hanson recorded his 250th conference victory and led his Thunderbirds to a fifth-place showing at the U SPORTS Final 8 national tournament, which was played at UBC for the first time since 1972.   Since arriving at UBC in 2000, Hanson has turned the men’s basketball program into a national power, guiding the T-Birds to consecutive appearances (2009 and 2010) in the U SPORTS championship game. Hanson was also well recognized before coming to UBC and is a four-time BCCAA Coach of the Year (‘92,’ 94, ’99, ’00), was twice presented with the CCAA Coaching Excellence Award (‘94 and ‘99), and was also named Basketball B.C. Coach of the Year in 1992 and 1994. The two-time UBC graduate has also been involved with Basketball Canada for nearly two decades, leading Canada’s World University Games team to a bronze-medal finish at the 2003 Summer Universiade in Korea. In the same position in 2005, Hanson led Canada to fifth place in Turkey. He was the head coach of the 2011 Canadian roster that won the silver medal in Shenzhen, China. In 2017, Hanson served as Team Canada head coach at a Summer Universiade for the fourth time. Hanson graduated from UBC’s Faculty of Human Kinetics in 1988 and earned his Master’s Degree in Human Kinetics from UBC in 1994.

Jadon Cohee BC Provincial Championship MVP

On this episode of Interviews with Anthony Beyrouti, we had the opportunity to sit down with a successful basketball player from Langley B.C., Jadon Cohee.    Like many young basketball players Jadon aspired to play collegiate basketball and have his school paid for. Jadon grew up in Langley, and attended Walnut Grove Secondary. There, Cohee won a Provincial Championship and was named MVP of the tournament.   His university career only begun when he committed to Seattle-U out of high-school, but things didn't seem fit. He then transferred to Southern Utah University who plays in the NCAA Div.1 league, however he thought it would be best to come back to Canada and play close to home at UBC.   He is now a recent graduate from the UBC Men's Basketball program where he had a very successful ending to his collegiate career. He now hopes to continue his basketball journey and play professionally.
