The Staff...
Robin Andrea - Camp Director: Coach Andrea is entering his second season as the Head Women's Basketball Coach at Vermont State University Lyndon, and his sixth as a collegiate head coach. In his initial season he led the Hornets to a 14-12 record, the program's best since 2018-19. Coach Andrea came to Lyndon following one season at Portland Community College in Portland, OR, where he led the Panthers to a 14-15 record, including a 7-9 mark and a 5th Place finish in the Northwest Athletic Conference South Region. Most significantly, he placed 100% of his graduating class into four-year universities. Prior to that, he served a three-year stint as the Head Women's Basketball Coach at Yakima Valley College in Yakima, WA. At Yakima Valley he took over a program that had only won two games during the COVID-shortened 2020-21 season and built it into a NWAC contender. In 2023-24 he led the Yaks to a 14-12 record, 8-6 in NWAC play, and a berth in the NWAC Sweet 16. His team was among the top five scoring teams in the conference, and he coached three All-Region players. Before Yakima Valley he worked as a women's basketball assistant at .Linn-Benton Community College and as both a men's and women's basketball assistant at Western Oregon University.
Coaching Staff: The staff will consist of outstanding area coaches, along with current and recently graduated college players. The camp is committed to maintaining a camper to coach ratio of 6:1 or better, the lowest of any college sponsored camp in New England.
Guest Speakers: The camp will feature several guest instructors each week who will work with the campers on various aspects of their development.
