Patrick & Henry Community College announces new men’s basketball head coach

MARTINSVILLE, Va. (WDBJ) – Patrick & Henry Community College has named Dan Milloy as the new men’s basketball head coach.

Milloy graduated from Concord University with a Bachelor’s degree in Recreation and Tourism Management in 2011. He continued his college education at Radford University, earning a Master’s degree in Special Education.

Prior to joining P&HCC, Milloy was an assistant coach for NCAA Division III Ferrum College. Milloy helped the Ferrum Panthers improve their record from 6-19 to 10-17 with a playoff win in the ODAC Tournament during his first season with the Panthers. In his second year with the team, Ferrum jumped to a 16-11 overall record with wins over top 25 opponents, a playoff victory, and multiple votes in the Division III National poll.

During his time at Ferrum, Milloy also played a role in the development of three second team All-ODAC players, Shone Hicks, Calvin Washington, and Jikari Johnson.

“We are excited about the future and continued success of Patriot Men’s Basketball as we welcome Dan Milloy to our Patrick & Henry PHamily,” said Assistant Vice President of Student Engagement and Athletic Director, Brian Henderson. ” After a thorough and timely review of each candidate, Coach Milloy stood out as the right person to lead our men’s basketball program on and off the court.”

Before his career at Ferrum, Milloy served as an Assistant Boys Basketball Coach at Bethel High School in Hampton, Virginia under Head Coach Craig Brehon, beginning in 2011.

While a member of the Bethel Bruins coaching staff, Milloy handled various aspects of the program, including film and scouting, team workouts, practice planning, as well as strength and conditioning. He also oversaw the program’s summer league team.

Milloy’s highlights at Bethel include finishing with a 24-6 record and a Division 5 state runner-up finish in 2017.

While at Bethel, Milloy coached several players that would later play NCAA Division I basketball, including Dajour Dickens (Hampton University), Cam Bacote (Georgetown), Aaron Bacote (ODU), Marcus Banks Jr. (UMBC) and Obinnaya Okafor (VCU). He also coached current NFL linebacker for the Cleveland Browns, Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah.

Milloy has also worked as a camp leader and skill development coach at the University of Dayton, University of Richmond, and Christopher Newport University Basketball camps.

“I am extremely thankful and excited to be joining the P&H PHamily and continue the Patriot Way. It’s time to get to work! Go Pats!” said Milloy.
