Brandon Pritzl enters his second season as an assistant coach for the University of Toledo men's basketball program.
Pritzl helped Toledo post its fourth straight 20-win season last year and become only the second MAC program ever to win four consecutive outright league titles. The only previous MAC member was Cincinnati in the early 1950s.
A De Pere, Wis. native, Pritzl joined the Rockets after spending three seasons as an assistant coach for the Green Bay men's basketball program. Prior to his time with the Phoenix, Pritzl served as an associate head coach and assistant coach at Hillsdale College, where he helped guide the Chargers to four straight winning seasons and three straight years of 19 or more victories.
Pritzl was an integral part of a team that won a G-MAC regular-season title in 2019-20 and reached the finals of the G-MAC tournament in 2017-18, earning a bid to the 2018 NCAA Division II tournament in the process.
After Pritzl graduated from Hillsdale in 2014, he spent two seasons as a graduate assistant for Ohio's men's basketball program.
As a player at Hillsdale from 2010 to 2014, Pritzl was a key part of two 20-win teams. He was a three-year starter at shooting guard and was twice named to the GLIAC All-Defensive Team (2011-12, 2013-14). In his career, Pritzl scored 843 points and started 81 games while helping lead the Chargers to their first overall GLIAC regular-season title since 1981-82 and their first regular-season crown at the Division II level in 2011-12.
Pritzl and his wife Michele, have three daughters, Lucy, Olivia and Violet.
