With two minutes to go in the last game of his more than 40 years of coaching basketball, Bob Thomason ’71, ’85 wasn’t going to go quietly into retirement. He was fighting for his team, for his men to work harder and play their best game. he was coaching hard — and on a national stage — right up to the final buzzer. It may seem surprising, since the team was pitted against No. 2 seed Miami in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Even Thomason admits the game was probably decided fairly early on.

And though the job isn’t just about winning for Thomason, his philosophy has put Pacific on top more often than not. By Sheri Grimes “Coaching is about making the best with what you have, no shortcuts and no excuses,” Thomason said. hat I’m teaching is what you need in life, in business, Back to His Home Court in how you deal with your wife and your kids,” he said.
