Athletic Director/Head Coach - Jim Russell - Contact: Telephone 218-855-8213 E-mail jrussell@clcmn.edu Jim Russell has developed a formula for success at Central Lakes College. The formula is simple: Defense plus teamwork equals wins. Russell has never had a losing season in 10 years as the Raiders head coach – posting a 192-101 record while advancing to the state tournament 9 times. His 192 victories makes him the winningest men’s basketball coach in the schools history. He was named the Minnesota Community Conference Coach of the year in 1997-98 and 2003-04 and 2007-2008! It had been 37 years since CLC had advanced to the Region 13 championship game prior to Russell taking over the helm. Russell has guided the Raiders to the region title game three time in the past five seasons with a Regional Championship in 2007-2008. Russell places defense first as he guides the Raiders. Defense keeps the team working together and moving in sync. CLC’s defensive trademark results in fastbreaks. In the half-court offense, ball movement is key with the Raiders able to strike from inside or beyond the 3-point line in a well-orchestrated team effort. Russell earned his M.S. in Athletic Administration from St. Cloud State, St. Cloud MN. B.A in Kinesiology & Recreation from Tabor College in Hillsboro, Kansas.
