Brad Nelson is entering his 10th season with the Panthers. He also serves as the recruiting and scheduling coordinator for UNI. Nelson works primarily with the Panthers offense and also assists with scouting for games and all facets of practice. Nelson joined the Panther coaching staff in the 2000-01 season. He has been with the Panthers during each of their three WNIT appearances (2001, 203, 2006). Nelson has been a part of a coaching staff that has led UNI to new heights in the MVC, including a second-place finish in the 2004-05 season and the third most wins in The Valley since 2004-05. He was named recruiting coordinator in the 2001-0 season, and he has helped sign four MVC all-conference players in Cassie Hager, Tara King, Jessie Biggs and Jacqui Kalin. Prior to joining UNI, Nelson served as assistant head coach at Cedar Falls High School and helped lead the Tigers to back-to-back trips to the semi-finals of the 4A Iowa Girls Basketball State Tournament. Prior to Cedar Falls, he served as an assistant coach at St. Ambrose University in 1995-96. That season, St. Ambrose won the regular and postseason conference titles on the way to a berth in the NAIA National Tournament. While earning his business management degree from the University of Oregon, Nelson served as the head manager for the Ducks' men's basketball team under coaches Don Monson and Jerry Green. Nelson and his wife, Jenny, have four children: 12-year-old daughter Bailey, 10-year-old twin sons Brandon and Jacob, and five-year-old son Jordan. |
