On Monday, St. Thomas Aquinas College Men's Basketball Head Coach Tobin Anderson was named the HoopDirt.com Coach of the Week for Division II.
Coach Anderson’s Spartans picked up three more wins this week to remain unbeaten on the season. On Wednesday, No. 16 St. Thomas Aquinas jumped out to a 31-point halftime lead at Mercy on the way to a 99-67 victory. In their weekend series with Molloy, the Spartans took both games by double-digits, winning 71-61 on Saturday and 92-63 on Sunday. Now 9-0 (8-0 ECC) on the season, St. Thomas Aquinas will look to remain perfect when they take on American International in a non-conference matchup on Wednesday.
Coaches selected for this weekly honor are now eligible to receive the HoopDirt.com National Coach of the Year Award presented by Just Play Solutions, which will be announced at the conclusion of the 2020-21 college basketball season. This is the sixth year that HoopDirt.com has run the Coach of the Week and Coach of the Year Programs.
The Spartans play their final three regular-season games at Aquinas Hall, with a non-conference test against American International on Wednesday at 6:00 pm, followed by a weekend showdown against Daemen on Saturday and Sunday, February 27 and 28. STAC has also clinched a first round bye for the ECC Tournament and will host a semi-final on Friday, March 5, with time and opponent to be determined.
