Micah Shrewsberry

Shrewsberry attended Cathedral High School in Indianapolis, Indiana, and played collegiately at Hanover College where he was a three-year starter and tri-captain, while leading the league in free throw percentage and assists during the 1998–99 season.[1]

After his playing career, Shrewsberry had assistant coaching stops at Wabash and DePauw before joining the coaching staff at Marshall for two seasons under Ron Jirsa. In 2005, he was named the head coach at Indiana University South Bend, where he served until 2007, when he joined Brad Stevens' staff at Butler.[2][1] While with the Bulldogs, Shrewsberry was part of the program's back-to-back NCAA national runner-up coaching staffs.

In 2011, Shrewsberry would join Purdue's coaching staff where he was credited for helping lead the Purdue Boilermakers to 8.74 turnovers per game, a nation-leading effort.[3] He'd reunite with Stevens in the NBA ranks, joining the Boston Celtics coaching staff, helping the Celtics to five playoff appearances, including back-to-back Eastern Conference finals.[4] On May 9, 2019, Shrewsberry returned to Purdue as an associate head coach.[5]

Shrewsberry graduated from Cathedral High School. He earned a B.A. from Hanover College and a master's degree in sports management from Indiana State University.[4]

He coached at an Indiana University branch campus, Indiana University South Bend, upon embarking on his journey as a coach. He was the first-ever full-time coach in IU South Bend men's basketball history, improving in wins in each of his three seasons at the helm of the Titans.[10]

After returning to assistant coaching with successful stints at Purdue (2011-13, 2019-21) and in the NBA with the Boston Celtics (2013-19), Shrewsberry took over the Penn State men's basketball program in March of 2021. The Nittany Lions went 14-17 in Shrewsberry's first season and followed that with a 23-win 2022-23 campaign which earned the Nittany Lions' their first NCAA Tournament berth since 2011. A late, five-game winning streak over fellow NCAA Tournament teams Northwestern (twice), Illinois, Maryland, and Indiana secured Penn State's at-large berth and fueled a run to the Big Ten Tournament Championship game. The Nittany Lions then defeated Texas A&M in the opening round of the NCAA tournament – the program's first Tournament win since 2001 – before falling to Big XII Tournament champion Texas in the round of 32.

On March 23, 2023, Shrewsberry was named the next head coach of Notre Dame.[11]
