A former player in the program, Coach Downing is eager to return to a place that helped shape him and give back to the school and community that means so much to him. He looks forward to building relationships with our student-athletes, establishing a strong culture, and helping players grow both on and off the court.
“This program means a lot to me because I grew up here. I was fortunate enough to wear this jersey as a player, so having the opportunity to come back and lead the program is really special.”
Coach Downing is excited to get in the gym with our players every day, build meaningful relationships, and watch this group grow, improve, and proudly represent Atchison High School and the community.
Please join us in welcoming Tyson Downing to the Phoenix basketball program! 🔥🏀
