After 14 years at the helm of the Saints Men's Basketball Program, Head Coach Chad LaDue has decided to step down from his post. Assistant Coach Daryl Crist will take over the NCCC Saint's men's basketball program starting in the 2016-17 Season.

Head Coach Chad LaDue spent 14 Season with the men's basketball program and became the winningest coach in Saint's basketball history with 233 wins. In LaDue's final season as the Head Coach he posted a record of 21-11.

"I wouldn't have made this decision if I didn't truly believe in Coach Crist" LaDue said.

Coach LaDue will truly be missed as he helped build the North Country's Men's basketball program into a successful program. In doing so, LaDue was awarded NJCAA Region III Coach of the year in the 2003-04 season and in the 2006-07 season, LaDue brought the Saints to a #2 overall ranking in the NJCAA National Polls.

As for the new Head Coach Daryl Crist, he is excited to take over and looks to add on to LaDue's success.
