One of the winningest coaches in state history, Roger came to Mountlake Terrace High School in 1980. In only his third season at MTHS, Roger’s 1980 team won the Edmonds District and WESCO championship and made it to the final 16 in the state. Roger’ teams were not done there, his 1989 team, made it to the state tournament and only lost one game-to eventual state champion Chief Sealth by three points, in placing fifth in the 2A tournament. Roger’s teams made an incredible run of making the playoffs 12 out of the last 14 years of his coaching tenure. He capped off his career with the only undefeated season in the history of the Edmonds School District. Roger’s 2000 team went 20-0 during the regular season and won the Edmonds District, WESCO, and Northwest District titles and ended the year 23-2. The Hawks went into the state 4A tournament as the number 1 ranked team in the entire state. For his incredible coaching accomplishments, Roger was named the Everett Herald, Seattle Times, and WESCO Coaches, Coach of the Year. During Roger’s tenure as head coach, the Hawks had 14 playoff appearances, won eight Edmonds District titles, one WESCO Divisional title, two WESCO league titles, one Northwest District title and made four state tournament appearances. Roger ended his career as being one of only a handful of coaches to ever win over 300 games in his career.  We are very fortunate to have Coach back working with our future players. Roger has been coaching basketball at Terrace for 30 years and was inducted into the state coaches Hall of Fame in 2005.
