Men's Basketball Coaching History

Records show competition back to 1912. It is unclear as to which years and which individuals coached from 1912-21. Among them were M.L. Gerber, Capt. Frank Drassal and C. Rothfuss. Siebert was a 1930 graduate before playing 11 years of Major League Baseball. He returned each fall after the MLB season ended to coach basketball at Concordia before eventually coaching baseball full time at the University of Minnesota.
