Entering his 20th season at Bluffton College, Greg Brooks is positioning his 2000 BC squad for a run at the
Heartland Conference title. Brooks produced 15 wins last season from a young team, and with experience and a
solid group of upperclassmen in camp this season, he hopes that Bluffton's second season in the HCAC will be
memorable.
Brooks is Bluffton's all-time winningest coach with 226 career wins. His teams have posted double-digit wins 14
seasons and he has won at least 15 games six different years. Brooks led BC into the NAIA District 22 playoffs four
times in the 1980s and twice to the runner-up spot of the Association of Mideast Colleges Tournament in the 1990s
Brooks also serves as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the BC football squad. He is a 1977
graduate of Ohio University, where he was a quarterback for the Bobcats. Brooks received his master's degree
from Marshall University in 1979. He is an assistant professor of health, physical education and recreation at BC.
