Rock Island Boys Basketball Managers

Congratulations Coach Polite & Coaching Staff❤️

Rock Island head boys basketball coach Marc Polite has been named the IBCA District 11 Coach of the Year. This marks his second consecutive win and his third selection in five years at Rock Island. Over the last 5 seasons, the Rocks have been dominant, posting an 123-43 overall record and an incredible 65-8 run at the Fieldhouse.

While individual accolades often follow such success, the Rocky program remains rooted in a TEAM-first philosophy. This achievement is a reflection of a dedicated coaching staff that works seamlessly together, always prioritizing what is best for the program.

No Ego's!
No Individual Credit Taken in Success!
No Finger Pointing in Disappointment!

Acting as one voice speaking the same consistent message!
TEAM

Thank you to the entire coaching staff for all that you do for the student athletes!

BEHIND THE SCENES With Jeremiah Evans.

An inside look at the preparation that fuels game night. Built on tradition, consistency, and attention to detail, the work begins long before tip-off and long before the stands fill. These moments behind the scenes are part of what sustains the standard of the program year after year. Go behind the scenes with Jeremiah Evans (Varsity Head Manager, Media & Content Manager) as he prepares, organizes, and documents the pieces that help set the tone for game night.
