Carroll College Athletic Director Charlie Gross has announced that he has accepted Kurt Paulson’s resignation as the Men’s Basketball Head Coach after five seasons.
“Kurt did an outstanding job leading Carroll’s Men’s Basketball Program,” said Gross. ” The Team was highly competitive on a national level; they shined in the classroom and were engaged in the community at every opportunity. Carroll prides itself on modeling excellence and having no equal, and Kurt was no exception to this standard during his five-year tenure” – Gross
The Carroll Men’s Basketball program went 115-44 under Paulson’s leadership. He led Carroll to the NAIA National Tournament four out of his five years, appearing in the round of 32, quarterfinal round, a NAIA National Title appearance during the 2018-2019 season, the first appearance in their school’s history.
Paulson was named Frontier Coach of the Year twice (2019, 2022), with both of those teams winning the Frontier Conference Title.
“I am stepping down as Carroll Men’s Basketball Coach” said Paulson in a statement. “Carroll has been good to me for 12 years as both a student-athlete and coach. I will forever love this place and the people.” – Paulson
Carroll College’s search for a new Men’s Basketball Head Coach will begin immediately.
