Sizemore Joins Wabash Basketball Program As Assistant Coach

Evan Sizemore joins the Wabash College basketball coaching staff as the Little Giants' assistant coach after two seasons as an assistant at Wisconsin Lutheran College.
 
Sizemore helped the Warriors to Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference regular-season titles in 2023 and 2024, along with the NACC Tournament title in 2024, earning Coaching Staff of the Year honors from the conference in 2023 and 2024.
 
"Coach Sizemore's experience working for both Aaron Aanonsen at Wisconsin Lutheran and Dave Balza at Palm Beach Atlantic University has prepared him well to make an immediate impact on our program," Wabash head basketball coach Kyle Brumett said. "Evan has been a part of championship programs and has coached and recruited to multiple levels, which has led to trips to the NCAA tournament. We are excited to work with him, see him continue to grow as a coach, and hit the ground running in building long-lasting relationships with our students here at Wabash."
 
Sizemore started his professional coaching career at Palm Beach Atlantic University in 2017 after graduating from The Ohio State University with a bachelor of science in education. He was named head assistant coach of the Sailfish in 2018 and helped guide the team to its first NCAA Division II Tournament berth in program history in 2020. Palm Beach Atlantic won a program-record 21 games in the 2019-20 season. The Sailfish boasted the seventh-most turnovers forced and eighth-most steals among NCAA DII teams in the 2018-19 campaign. Sizemore coached three All-SSC honorees in the 2020-21 season and the 2022 SSC Freshman of the Year in his final season at Palm Beach Atlantic while working with Sailfish head coach Cole Rose. He was named an Under Armour Top 30-Under-30 Coach by the National Association of Basketball Coaches in 2020.
 
Sizemore joined the Wisconsin Lutheran staff for the 2022-23 season, helping the Warriors to 19 wins with a 14-3 NACC record to claim the regular-season conference title. Wisconsin Lutheran produced NACC Player of the Year that season and ranked tenth among NCAA Division III programs in turnover margin and assists-to-turnover ratio. The Warriors finished 24-5 with Sizemore as an assistant coach last season with a 16-2 NACC record to repeat as conference champions. Wisconsin Lutheran won the NACC Tournament crown before losing to Washington University in St. Louis in overtime in the first round of the 2024 NCAA DIII Tournament.
 
"After meeting with Coach Brumett, Coach Ron Henricks, and the players on the Wabash basketball team and walking around on campus, I could feel the sense of community that exists here," Sizemore said. "I want to be a part of that and contribute to the program's continued success. I'm a very relationship-driven person and want to help our team members become the best versions of themselves both on and off the court."
 
Sizemore begins his duties immediately.
