Nigel Long named Liberty Hurricanes Head Basketball Coach

The Liberty Hurricanes have named their new head coach, and he is returning to Bethlehem Area School District. Nigel Long, a Freedom High School and Muhlenberg College graduate, takes over for Chad Landis, who stepped down following the 2019-20 Basketball season.

Long played at arch-rival Freedom but after getting some coaching experience at Bethlehem Catholic under Scott McClary, who he also played under at Muhlenberg, he is excited to move ahead as the new man in charge at Liberty. At 24, Long is just a couple years removed from college and excited about his new role. 

Long joined the D11Sports.com Podcast along with Color Analyst Tom Mosser and discussed his philosophy and expectations  about becoming the new head coach for the Hurricanes.
