UW-Oshkosh names Lewis full-time head basketball coach

May 1, 2019 By Bill Scott

Matt Lewis

The University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh has officially removed the interim tag and named Matt Lewis the schools permanent head men’s basketball coach on Wednesday.

Lewis guided the Titans to their first NCAA Division 3 men’s basketball championship in March, knocking off Swarthmore College (Pa.) in the national title game.

Lewis led the Titans to a 29-3 record, claiming their first outright Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WIAC) title since 1978 before going on to win six NCAA postseason games en route to the national title.  The Titans averaged 93.7 points in its six Division III Championship victories and set the school’s NCAA postseason scoring record with its 108-point performance against University of Northwestern (Minn.) during the second round.

Lewis was elevated to interim head coach after previous UW-Oshkosh head coach Pat Juckem accepted the lead position of the Washington University in St. Louis (Mo.) men’s basketball program.

Lewis is just the fifth UW-Oshkosh head men’s basketball coach since the 11964-65 season and the 14th overall.

UW-Oshkosh has named Matt Lewis the Titans Interim Head Coach men’s basketball coach on Thursday.

Lewis has been the Titans top assistant, coaching at the school for the last six years.  He’ll lad the Titans for the 2018-’19 season while the University conducts a national search for Pat Juckem’s replacement.

Juckem was named the new coach at Washington University in St. Louis.  Assistant Chancellor and Director of Athletics Darryl Sims said they’ll form a committee of various members from the school, including students, to help find the fulltime successor.

Sims didn’t rule out the possibility that Lewis could eventually land the spot in a fulltime basis.

After guiding the UW-Oshkosh Titan men’s basketball team to the NCAA D-3 title game, head coach Pat Juckem is moving on.

Juckem is taking over the program at Washington University-St. Louis.

Juckem led Oshkosh into the NCAA Tournament in each of the last three seasons, leading the Titans to a 95-73 record in six seasons at the school.

Juckem and the Titans finished 25-8 last season, falling to Nebraska Wesleyan 78-72 in the D-3 title game.  Juckem takes over for Mark Edwards, who was fired after 37 seasons at the school.

The Wisconsin Badger men’s basketball team will host Div. 3 UW-Oshkosh

Kohl Center Court

tonight in an exhibition at the Kohl Center. 

The Titans aren’t expected to keep things too close, but that doesn’t mean 1st year head coach Pat Juckem (pronounced Yuck-em) isn’t excited about the opportunity to play the Badgers.

AUDIO: Pat Juckem says they can get a lot out of this :21

Juckem  is making his coaching debut for the Titans tonight.  One might conclude that this is a tough way for Juckem to get his start.  But Juckem is looking forward to the opportunity.  It’s a chance for his players to play on the big stage at the Kohl Center.

AUDIO: Pat Juckem on what the coaches are looking for :12

Juckem said they look at this opportunity as a win regardless of the outcome. 

It’s Bo Ryan, who won four National Titles at Division III Platteville, that is responsible for leading the charge which has allowed division 1 schools to play division 3 schools in exhibitions.  It’s a warmup for the Badgers, but it’s a game that the Oshkosh Titans won’t forget for the rest of their lives.
