The Storm saw its six-game winning streak snapped by Nebraska Wesleyan on Wednesday.

Within one point in the second half, the Prairie Wolves outscored the Storm by 10 over the final minutes. Easton Darling led the Storm with 19 points, while Andrew Curran’s 10 assists made him the first player with at least 10 assists in a game in over three years.

THE SPARTANS

The Spartans had won four of five and were sitting at 3-1 in conference play entering 2023, but suffered double-digit losses to open the new year (vs Coe, at Loras). In the two losses, the Spartans shot less than 50 percent from the free throw line combined.

LAST TIME THEY MET

Despite a game-high 16 points from Andrew

Curran, the Storm fell at home last season, 9068, after Dubuque shot over 50 percent from the field.

THE COACHES

HEAD COACH

BRAD BJORKGREN The 2022-23 season will be Brad Bjorkgren’s eighth as the head men’s basketball coach at Simpson.

In his first five years with the program, he helped the Storm post at least 13 wins in each year for the first time since 1994-99. An accomplished high school coach prior to Simpson, Bjorkgren was inducted into the Iowa High School Athletic Association’s Basketball Hall of Fame class of 2017 for his remarkable career at Urbandale High School.

The Storm are 82-83 under Bjorkgren (pronounced Bee-york-gren). Simpson has landed a spot in the conference tournament six of the last seven seasons, including two-straight semifinal appearances between 2018-20.

Since taking over, Bjorkgren’s squads have produced 18 all-conference honorees, including seven first team selections. Conor Riordan was named a 2020 Jostens Trophy finalist for program’s first since 2003 and was a two-time Academic All-America recipient for the Storm, just the second men’s basketball player to land on the team twice.

At the end of his fourth year, Simpson had hosted a conference tournament game each season under Bjorkgren. He led the Storm to a 15-11 mark in 201516, a nine-game turnaround from the previous season. He tied the school record for wins by a first-year head coach and piloted the Storm to a second-place finish in the IIAC, the program’s best in 12 years.

Bjorkgren’s up-tempo style produced a school-record 232 3-pointers in 2015-16 as Simpson led the IIAC in several categories, including steals, turnover margin and free throw percentage. Sam Amsbaugh earned Iowa Conference co-MVP honors in 2017-18.

16

Hired as the 23rd head coach in Simpson history on April 15, 2015, Bjorkgren came to Simpson following a 27-year stint as the head coach at Urbandale (Iowa) High School. He went 398-213 at Urbandale, winning nine Central Iowa Metropolitan League (CIML) Championships and appearing in seven Class 4A State Tournaments.

THE BJORKGREN FILE PERSONAL INFORMATION Hometown: Manning, Iowa Spouse: Michele Children: Jacob and Benjamin

Bjorkgren earned CIML Coach of the Year honors eight times, district coach of the year seven times and took home Class 4A State Coach of the Year honors in 2000. In 2013, he won the Iowa Basketball Coaches Association’s (IBCA) Don Logan Service Award for his ongoing commitment to the sport. He was the president of the IBCA from 2002-03 and has served on the executive board since 1998.

COACHING EXPERIENCE

In addition to coaching more than 100 all-conference performers, Bjorkgren coached 20 all-state honorees.

Among those all-state performers is Iowa’s 2001 Mr. Basketball, Tyler McKinney. The J-Hawks finished as the Class 4A runner-up in 2001, placed third in 1997 and fourth in 2007.

EDUCATION

Bjorkgren graduated from Simpson in 1983 with degrees in business management and physical education. He was a two-year letterwinner for the basketball team, earning Second Team all-Iowa Conference honors after the 1982-83 season.

Bjorkgren began his career at Urbandale in 1983, serving as assistant boys basketball coach for five seasons before taking over as head coach in 1988.

During that time he also served as a business education instructor, computer applications instructor and School to Work Coordinator.
