Welcome, Coach Brad Minor!
Coach Minor has worked with a wide range of talented athletes and has built a reputation for strong player development and a deep commitment to team culture. Most recently, he served as the inaugural head coach at Crismon High School, where he started the basketball program from the ground up and guided the team through two varsity seasons at the 3A and 4A levels. In addition to his high school coaching roles, he has been actively involved in youth basketball, helping to develop players at all ages.
Coach Minor also brings along a dynamic and experienced coaching staff to support the Aztec program. Together, this group brings energy, experience, and a shared vision for building a strong, competitive, and unified basketball culture at Corona del Sol:

- Jon Garrett – Head Freshman Coach
Outside of basketball, Coach Minor has been a dedicated social studies teacher for 16 years, and he looks forward to joining the teaching staff at Corona del Sol.
Please join us in giving Coach Minor and the new coaching staff a warm Aztec welcome—we’re excited for the future of the program under his leadership!
We are excited to welcome Coach Brad Minor as the new head coach of the Corona del Sol Boys Basketball program!
