Coaching Experience
1) Lawrence McKenzie is from Minneapolis, and he was a four-time state champion at Patrick Henry High in Minneapolis. Nicknamed “L Mac,” Lawrence had one of the best prep careers in Minnesota history, as a two-time All-State and All-Metro selection. He was a runner-up for Mr. Basketball. Shined in college at the University of Oklahoma and University of Minnesota, scoring over 1,400 career points and helping the Sooners win a Big 12 title. Played for the Los Angeles Defenders of the D-League (now G League) for 1 1/2 seasons, and also played in Macedonia’s top pro league. On his passion for music: “I’m able to be creative and make something out of nothing.” Son of Minnesota basketball coaching legend Larry McKenzie, who has been recognized locally and nationally, including from the NCAA. “Everyone knows what he’s done,” Lawrence says, “but I had that all the time!” His dream vacation spot is Santorini in Greece. 2) Ryan Martin grew up in Kansas City, Missouri, and he earned four Varsity letters in basketball at Schlagle High. Ryan’s team advanced to the State tournament final during his freshman year, and he was a finalist one season for the top basketball player in the Kansas City Metro. A three-time All-Conference player and one-time captain, Ryan is ranked in the top 10 in his school’s history in points and rebounds. He averaged 19 points per game during his senior season. At Coffeyville Community College in Kansas, Ryan was named the 2005 Jayhawk Conference Eastern Division Player of the Year, and he scored more than 1,000 points in his two seasons while shooting better than 50 percent from the field. Ryan then headed to Wichita State University to play basketball, making the Valley All-Bench team and helping the Shockers advance to the “Sweet 16” of the NCAA Tournament in 2006. Ryan says his most impactful coach is Jay Herkelman, the highly-decorated head men’s basketball coach at Coffeyville Community College since 1995. “He taught me the value of hard work and made me earn everything I got for two years,” Ryan says. “He would call me into his office every Monday and ask, ‘Is this the week you’re going to give up your starting spot?’ That made me want to be better every week.” Fun fact about Ryan: He has a metal rod in his left leg, from his knee to his his ankle. His favorite restaurant is Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen, especially since there isn’t one in Minnesota.
