ANTWAIN SCALES A

ntwain Scales begins his second season as the Head Women’s basketball coach at Garden City Community College.

In his first season in Garden City, the Broncbusters finished 13-11, putting Garden City on the map as a team to watch in Region VI.

Scales’ resume is impressive to say the least. He spent seven illustrious seasons as the Head Girls Coach at Wichita South High School. There, he turned a program that had won just two games in three seasons prior to his arrival, into an absolute juggernaut. He compiled a record of 152-18 (.894) while leading the Titans to four straight 6A state championships-becoming the first program in history to accomplish that feat. During that stretch, Wichita South won 53 straight games before that streak ended in the 2017 state quarterfinals with a loss to Wichita West.

Much to the surprise of many, Scales left Wichita South following the 2017 campaign to take the reigns at Colby Community College. The Trojans finished 5-26 in 2017-2018 and won only three games the year before that. They lost 23 straight contests in 2016-2017 while dropping 27 straight conference games.

In his first season, Colby finished 8-22. But in year two, the Trojans turned a major corner, winning 19 games while posting a winning record for the first time since 2006. They began the year 11-1, their best start since 2003-2004 under Tom Stephens.

Scales originally signed to play football at Garden City back in the mid 90’s under Bob Larson before leaving to go back to Wichita. During his high school, Scales won state titles playing for Steve Eck at Wichita South before transferring to Wichita Heights to close out his prep career.
