GOOD LUCK TO COACH LOE - On behalf of the Gilbert Tiger Basketball program and its players, parents and supporters we would like to say thank you and good luck to Coach Loe, his wife Ashley and their son Parker as they will be moving back to their home town in Minnesota to be with family. Both Coach Loe and his wife have recently been offered teaching positions and couldn't pass up the opportunity to be with both of their families. It has been a pleasure having Coach Loe in our basketball program the last three years as he devoted numerous hours developing our basketball players each year. Coach Loe also has been a great teacher in the classroom and Gilbert High has truly lost one of it's best teachers. Coach Loe is going to stay with us through the end of June working camps and training a new coach throughout the summer. Good luck to the Loe family on their new adventure and we will sorely miss you and everything that you brought to Gilbert and our basketball program.

Shawn King Signs College Basketball NLOI - After years of practice and sacrifice, and thousands of miles of travel over the past 6+ weeks, Shawn has sifted through the five D1/D2 offers he has received over the past few months and has made his final decision!

Shawn has accepted and signed his NLOI for a full-ride scholarship from NCAA Division I, and Horizon League member UIC (University of Illinois Chicago) and Head Coach Jimmy Collins. Coach Collins has been coaching at UIC for the past 14 years, he and his outstanding Assistant Coaches have lead UIC to the NCAA tournament twice and Coach Collins is the schools all-time leader in victories.

Coach Collins was also a player for the NBA’s Chicago Bulls in the 70’s and truly knows the game. The Horizon league consists of several outstanding teams such as Butler, Wright State, Cleveland State, Valparaiso and Loyola Chicago to name a few. Several of these teams have made quality runs in the NCAA tournament over the past few years and we feel this is a quality league and an excellent program and should be a great fit for Shawn and his style of play.

ATTACHED are photos of Shawn King signing his National Letter of Intent for UIC in the athletic office of his High School. Shawn is looking forward to his opportunity to compete at the college level and acquire his Masters Degree in Business. His family could not bee more proud of his accomplishments to date and look forward to bigger and better things for Shawn as he continues his basketball career and education at UIC. GO FLAMES!
