Brandon Lincoln Named New Boys’ Varsity Basketball Coach
Providence High School has hired former University of Oregon standout Mr. Brandon Lincoln, who recently finished his third season as an assistant coach with the Montana State men’s basketball team. Coach Lincoln began leading the Pioneers’ program as the boys’ varsity basketball coach in early June and will also be a full-time physical education teacher at PHS.
Before coaching at Montana State of the NCAA Division I Big Sky Conference, Lincoln coached at his alma mater, Oregon, where he worked as a Men’s Basketball Assistant Conditioning Coach in 2013-14 for the Ducks’ NCAA Tournament team. It was his second tour of duty on the Oregon staff. He also worked as a Graduate Assistant in 2010-11 and as the program’s Video Coordinator in 2011-12.

Lincoln graduated from Oregon in 2006 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science and in 2012 with a Master’s Degree in Education Leadership. After completing a successful college career, Lincoln played professionally in Germany with the ETB Wohnbau Baskets. He was a second team all-league selection, and he led the club in scoring in back-to-back seasons while leading them to the German ProB championship.
A Portland native, Lincoln was a 2000 State Champion at Jefferson High School. While at Jefferson, he also was a 2002 unanimous All-State and All-City selection, MVP of the Oregon-Washington All-Star Game, and a McDonald’s All American Nominee.
