Assistant Coach Thomas Carr

First Season at Chipola

Thomas Carr is entering his first year as an assistant coach at Chipola College. Carr's responsibilities include recruiting coordinator, player development, strength and conditioning, and scouting.

Carr is a graduate of St. John's Jesuit High School in Toledo, Ohio. During his playing career at SJJ, he never had the gaudy numbers, but always seemed to find a way to impact the game. His teams were some of the best to ever step on the court at SJJ, and many of the players from those teams remain close today.

Following his graduation from St. John's in 2003, Thomas went on to play a year of prep basketball at Hargrave Military Academy. While there, his team was the top ranked prep team in the nation, and finished the season as the 2003-2004 prep school National Champions.

Thomas then went on to play basketball and graduate from Pfeiffer University in Misenheimer, NC. Having been a captain his senior year, Carr also was second in the nation in 3 point field goals made, and had a knack for hitting big shots. Pfeiffer’s frantic pace is one of a kind, therefore, Carr was able to average 14pts per game while only playing 20 minutes a game.

After graduating from Pfeiffer with a degree in Sports Management, Carr owned and operated two businesses with his former coach and best friends. RecruitingRumors.com, the fastest growing college basketball placement service in the country, and RecruitingProductions.com are basketball related businesses that's sole purpose is to help kids continue their dream of playing college basketball at the next level.

Carr understands the importance of athletics in kid's lives, and feels with the right direction and determination all kids can compete at a high level. He feels the relationships he has developed along the way is rendered useless, unless he is able to provide kids the opportunities that he has been so fortunate to receive.
