Lisa Nuxol-Wilson enters her third season at the helm of the Embry-Riddle women’s basketball team after she was selected as the program’s first-ever head coach in August 2013. After taking a year to recruit, Nuxol-Wilson put together a lineup that played its inaugural game on Nov. 7, 2014. The first edition of Embry-Riddle women’s basketball made waves in its first season of competition, finishing at 17-12 overall. The Eagles’ 9-9 Sun Conference record put them at fourth in the league’s regular season standings and the Blue and Gold closed out its inaugural campaign in the quarterfinal round of the conference tournament. Nuxol-Wilson also guided some of her players to individual accolades in 2014-15, including first team All-Conference selection Mercedes Jorge, second team honoree Taylor Cyphers, and Sabrina Whiting, who was The Sun Conference Freshman of the Year, as well as a second team and All-Defensive Team selection. In the 2015-16 season, as the Embry-Riddle Athletic Department entered year two of a three-year transition process to NCAA II, the Blue and Gold’s second year of competition featured a 7-19 record against a schedule that featured nearly all NCAA II programs. Nuxol-Wilson came to Embry-Riddle with 17 years of previous experience in women’s basketball coaching, recruiting and program management. Her coaching experience began in 1996 when she was the assistant varsity coach and head junior varsity coach at her alma mater Lake Howell High School. She simultaneously assumed the assistant coaching responsibility at Seminole State College and after a year of dual coaching, she moved exclusively into college coaching, going to Georgia Southern where she was a women’s basketball first assistant coach and recruiting coordinator from 1997-01. Her recruiting efforts produced 10 student-athletes who helped the Eagles to two Southern Conference titles and still hold top marks in the GSU record books. Nuxol-Wilson then moved to Stetson as the Lady Hatters’ women’s basketball recruiting coordinator from 2001-02. In just one season at Stetson, she signed seven players, including Joslyn Giles, who was the 200203 Atlantic Sun Freshman of the Year. In 2002, Nuxol-Wilson was given the opportunity to become the head women’s basketball coach at Seminole Community College, now Seminole State College. As the head coach at a Division I junior college program, Nuxol-Wilson led the women’s basketball team to a combined 59-29 record over her three seasons from 2002-05 and under her guidance, the Raiders were co-conference regular season champions, achieved a No. 9 national ranking and were ranked in the Region 8 top 10 each year. After her first head coaching job, Nuxol-Wilson returned to Division I women’s basketball as an assistant coach for the University of Alabama. At Alabama, Nuxol-Wilson assisted the women’s basketball program in recruiting, game preparation, administrative duties, academic monitoring and individualized position coaching, working with both post players and guards during her tenure. She was also the director of the Alabama camp programs. Throughout her coaching career, Nuxol-Wilson mentored and coached 17 All-Academic team members, 16 All-Conference selections, two All-State honorees, a Scholar-Athlete of the Year, an Arthur Ashe Female Athlete of the Year and a Freshman of the Year. Additionally, five of her student-athletes have gone on to play professionally, including Aneika Henry who played for the Atlanta Dream in the WNBA. After three seasons at Alabama, Nuxol-Wilson became a national evaluator with Blue Star Basketball and in 2010, she started the Blue Star-Florida Basketball program serving as a head coach and program director. With Blue Star, Nuxol-Wilson was tasked with overseeing high school and elite-level women’s basketball, recruiting players, administering program budgets, scheduling tournaments, and managing all public relations. Under her direction, 18 individuals have earned All-State recognition, while 13 have signed NCAA Division I scholarships. Through her role at Blue Star, Nuxol-Wilson has developed a broad network of recruiting contacts in the state of Florida. Nuxol-Wilson began her collegiate playing career at West Virginia Tech where she helped the Golden Bears to a conference regular season title and a perfect 18-0 league record in 1990-91. The following season, the Florida native returned to her home state where she was named the Academic Athlete of the Year at Valencia Community College. An NJCAA Academic All-America nominee, she helped the Matadors to the 1992 conference crown. After one year at Valencia Community College, Nuxol-Wilson went to the University of Central Florida where she played for the Knights’ women’s basketball team. She earned her bachelors degree in Political Science from UCF in 1994. Nuxol-Wilson is married to Dr. Matt Wilson who is an Associate Professor in Sport Business at Stetson University. They reside in Ormond Beach with their son Rocco.

He has travelled to Belgium, Switzerland and Ireland among others, teaching and coaching the game of basketball, and in the summer of 2007, Ridder earned the distinction of being selected as one of three court coaches for the USA Basketball Men’s Pan American Games Team Trials. In addition to his coaching role, Ridder served as Embry-Riddle’s Director of Athletics for 20 years (1993–2013), overseeing major growth in the department. Under his watchful eye, the Embry-Riddle Athletic Department transformed into one of the elite athletic programs in the nation, including 14 consecutive top25 finishes in the NACDA/Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup and 14 straight Sun Conference Commissioner’s Cup, awarded to the best overall athletic program in the league. Ridder was the architect of the Embry-Riddle Athletic philosophy of “Student, Person, Player,” which is a commitment to academic achievement, campus and community involvement, personal holistic growth and a drive to excel in sport. Starting in 2000, the entire athletic program consistently posted a higher grade point average than the rest of the Embry-Riddle student body. During Ridder’s tenure, 59 ERAU student-athletes earned CoSIDA Academic All-America honors and 263 student-athletes garnered NAIA Scholar-Athlete honors. For his leadership as Director of Athletics, Ridder earned the highest NAIA athletic administration honor in 2006 when he was named the NAIA Athletics Director of the Year. Ridder also earned Sun Conference Athletic Administrator of the Year accolades eight times and NAIA Southeast Region Athletic Administrator of the Year honors three times. In 2004-05, Steve and his wife Vicky were honored by many loyal athletic supporters with the establishment of the Steve and Vicky Ridder Endowed Scholarship. Through fundraised dollars, a scholarship is awarded annually to a student-athlete who best represents the philosophical mode of “Student, Person, Player.” Coach Ridder and his wife, Vicky, have four children: Ryan (engaged to Jen Calnan), Rachel (married to Tyler DeBord), Rob and Reed and two grandchildren: Crew and Case. The Ridder family resides in Ormond Beach and attends Tomoka Christian Church.

MEDIA GUIDE
CHADKELLER 2016-17 marks Chad Keller’s 13th season as an assistant coach with the Embry-Riddle men’s basketball team. Keller joined the Embry-Riddle coaching staff in August of 2004 after serving as the Head Boys’ Basketball Coach at Leesburg High School from 2001-04. During Keller’s tenure, the Eagles have posted an overall record of 300-89, have won six conference tournament championships and four conference regular season titles and have made eight trips to the NAIA National Tournament, including a national tournament semifinal appearance in 2015. Keller has played a key role in the Eagles’ recruiting efforts. He has established a number of contacts within the state of Florida and has built a strong recruiting network within in the United States. He has teamed up with Coach Ridder to bring in All-American players Tyler DeBord, David Butler, Blake Touchard, DeForest Carter, Ray Graham and Cesar Pastrana. Keller’s first season at Embry-Riddle in 2004-05, saw the Eagles capture the conference tournament title with a dramatic win over his alma mater, Flagler. Keller’s coaching efforts are concentrated primarily on the Eagles’ defense and that season, his hard work paid off as the ERAU defense finished second in the country in defensive field goal percentage (.391) en route to the Sweet 16 at the national tournament and a 26-8 overall record. The following year, the Eagle defense took it up another notch and led the nation in defensive field goal percentage, limiting opponents to 36.0 percent from the floor in 2005-06. The Eagles won the league’s regular season and tournament titles for the second straight year and earned the No. 1 seed going into the national tournament before closing out the year at 31-3. Keller has transitioned from working with perimeter players to focusing on post player development over the course of his collegiate coaching career. The Embry-Riddle big men have been a staple in the program’s success over the years and under Keller’s guidance. Keller has also been responsible for the coordination and administration of the very successful Embry-Riddle Men’s Basketball Team Camps. One of the top team camp programs in the Southeast, the Embry-Riddle Team Camps attract more than 50 high school programs for week-long and weekend programming each year. The camps have helped the Eagles’ recruiting effors significantly as a number of ERAU letterwinners were former campers. Prior to joining the Eagles’ staff, Keller served as the head coach at one of the top high school programs in the state of Florida, guiding Leesburg to a 155-47 overall and six consecutive Sweet 16 appearances from 1998-2003 during his seven years working with the program. His teams were part of a string of 11 consecutive 20-win seasons and in 2002, Keller’s Yellow Jackets (29-6) advanced to the State Final Four for the first time in more than 25 years. Leesburg’s success in 2002 earned Keller Florida Dairy Farmers Class 5A Florida Coach of the Year honors. In addition, Keller coached two McDonald’s All-American nominees and three All-State players. However, Keller was most proud of his team’s achievements in the classroom as his team elevated their academic prowess with a 3.15 grade point average in 2004. This commitment to blend academics and athletics is further evidenced by seven players signing college scholarships in Keller’s four seasons including two NCAA Division I players in Marlyn Bryant (South Florida) and Francis Cuyler (Middle Tennessee State). A 1997 graduate of Flagler, Keller served as team captain his junior and senior seasons with the Saints. During his collegiate career, Keller was a starter for FC helping them post three straight 20-win seasons. He led the Florida Sun Conference in assists per game from 1995-97 and as a senior finished in the top 20 of the NAIA in assists per game. He closed out his career third on Flagler’s all-time assists list and second among single-season leaders. Keller attended St. Cloud High School where he was an All-Orange Belt Conference selection and holds the school record for assists in a season and in a game (18). He has been inducted into the St. Cloud High School Basketball Alumni Hall of Fame. Keller is also very active in the local community. He is often asked to speak at a variety of functions and makes frequent visits to local elementary and middle schools. A member of the National Association of Basketball Coaches since 2004, Keller is extremely proud of the strong relationships he has built, which includes providing mentorship to several individuals who have gone into the coaching profession, including Brandon Scott (Head Coach, Limestone), Ryan Ridder (Head Coach, Daytona State), Daniel Kiesling (Asst. Coach, Embry-Riddle), Denver Cobb (Asst. Coach, Rocky Mountain College), Nick Miller (Head Coach, Pinellas Park High School) and Mark Isenhour (Head Coach, Brookwood High School). Keller graduated from Flagler with a degree in Business Administration and completed his master’s in Sports Coaching at the United States Sports Academy in 2006. He resides in Ormond Beach with his three children Kiley, Colby and Caden.

Steve Wright joined the Embry-Riddle men’s basketball coaching staff in the summer of 2016, bringing 38 years of coaching experience to Daytona Beach. Wright’s resume is filled with notable achievements, not the least of which was a 697-247 career record in the high school coaching ranks in the state of Kentucky. Wright’s .738 career winning percentage closely mirrors Ridder’s’ .730 (656-242) career mark and between them, the pair have over 1,300 wins.

Wright reached the pinnacle of Kentucky basketball in 2005 when his South Laurel squad claimed the state championship in the midst of a four year streak of reaching the round of 16 from 2004-08. In total, Wright claimed 15 district championships, eight regional titles and nine trips to the Kentucky state tournament, an impressive achivement considering there is no classifications in the Bluegrass State as all schools compete in the same tournament. Wright registered three quarterfinal finishes as well as claiming a pair of Kentucky AAU State Championships. Wright began his head coaching career at Walton-Verona High School before taking over at Laurel County/South Laurel where he spent 21 seasons with the Cardinals.

Wright posted a 121-41 record at Southwestern before stepping away following the 2015-16 season. Wright racked up 24 different Coach of the Year honors over his career and has been inducted into five separate Hall of Fames. He served as president of the Kentucky Association of Basketball Coaches from 1998-2002 and was selected to coach in several All-Star games, including the 2007 McDonald’s All-American Game. Wright graduated from Northern Kentucky in 1979 and earned Master’s degrees from Xavier (1984) and Union (Ky.) (1990).

MEN’S BASKETBALL ALL-TIME COACHING RECORDS Ron Caylor (1988-89)
The late Ron Caylor is considered the founder of Eagle basketball. A former standout player at Colorado State and Aeronautical Science professor at Embry-Riddle, Caylor drew on his past experiences with the sport to convince the University’s administration that adding intercollegiate basketball would enhance student life on the Daytona Beach campus. Not only did the administration approve his request, it also hired him in the fall of 1988 to become the Eagles’ first coach in their inaugural season.
Steve Ridder (1989-present)
Embry-Riddle’s current basketball coach, Ridder has taken the Eagles to their current level of excellence. During his 27-year tenure, the Kentucky native has guided the Blue and Gold to 15 NAIA national tournament appearances, including winning a national championship in 2000. Entering the 2016-17 season, Ridder has accumulated an overall record of 656-241, including a conference record of 241-83.

MEDIA GUIDE EMBRY-RIDDLE PEP BAND
Now in its 18th year, the Pep Band has played a tremendous role in creating and maintaining a home-court advantage for Embry-Riddle basketball and volleyball at the ICI Center. Founded in 1998-99, the Pep Band continues to make every Eagle contest a complete collegiate experience. A huge fan favorite among Eagle faithful, the Pep Band has formed the tradition of performing the national anthem before Eagle basketball and volleyball games, as well as making the ICI Center a difficult place to play leading many fan cheers aside from their musical talents. The Pep Band put itself on the map during the 1999-2000 season. The group traveled by bus all the way to Branson, Mo., to support the basketball team at the national tournament. The Embry-Riddle Pep Band worked in harmony with the Bobcat Band from the College of the Ozarks to create an unbelievable atmosphere during the national championship game, ultimately won by the Eagles 75-63.

Phillips played baseball for the Eagles for three seasons, while completing both his undergraduate (B.S., 1990) and graduate degrees (M.S., 1992). Phillips returned to the University as the program’s first-ever Director of Sports Marketing and Promotions in August 1997, and was subsequently named Assistant Director of Athletics in 1998. In 2007, he was named Associate Director of Athletics, supervising the day-to-day operations of the athletic department, including facilities, game management, sports information, sports medicine and sports marketing for the Daytona Beach campus. During his tenure at Embry-Riddle, Phillips has served as the tournament director for all nine NAIA national championships that Embry-Riddle has hosted, including five for golf and four national soccer tournaments. In 2008, the NAIA honored him with the Charles Morris Award as the NAIA’s National Athletic Administrator of the Year. In addition, he was honored by The Sun Conference as the league’s Athletic Director of the Year in 2014-15. In 2010, Phillips was named to the Board of Directors for the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators (NACMA), becoming just the second administrator from an NAIA institution to be named to this board. In addition to serving on the Board of Directors for NACMA, he is also a past chair of the NAIA-NACMA Advisory Board, a panel of NAIA administrators that provided leadership and professional development opportunities in sports marketing to other NAIA institutions. Internally, Phillips has served the University in numerous other capacities during his 19-years on staff, including Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) Reaccreditation Audit Team, ERAU’s Women’s Initiative Committee, ERAU’s Diversity and Inclusion Task Force and the Embry-Riddle Alumni Advisory Council.

He has presented on topics such as “Big Time Promotions on a Small-Time Budget,” Social Networking and the “Brand of You.” The sports information staff at Embry-Riddle has also garnered national attention during his tenure, capturing over 60 CoSIDA awards for Excellence in Publications. ERAU Sports Information was also honored on seven occasions with the NAIA’s Gary Spitler Award for the best overall sports publications in the NAIA.
