Brickey Named Assistant Coach at N.C. Central
7/16/2009 1:00:00 PM | Women's Basketball
DURHAM, N.C. - North Carolina Central University head men's basketball coach LeVelle Moton has announced the hiring of former Duke University standout Robert Brickey as assistant coach with the Eagles.
Brickey comes to NCCU after serving a one-year stint with the women's basketball program at Duke University as the assistant director of basketball operations. Prior to that, he was the head coach at Shaw University for three years (2005-2008). Before his arrival at Shaw, Brickey was an assistant coach at James Madison (2004-05), Southern Methodist (2002-04), and the United States Military Academy (2000-02).
He also served as the community outreach coordinator with the Blue Devils from 1999-2000, before going into the coaching business.
“Robert brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to our staff,” Moton said. “Because of his previous stops at the Division I level at places like James Madison, West Point, and SMU, his recruiting territories expand outside of North Carolina. At the same time, he is a hometown guy, with strong ties to the Triangle and Fayetteville areas. Everything he does and everything he stands for is parallel to what I was looking for in an assistant coach."
A native of Fayetteville, N.C., Brickey played four years at Duke from 1986-90. He served as team captain in 1990 and received first team All-Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) Tournament honors in 1988. He was a member of three Final Four teams and started in the national championship game in 1990. During his Blue Devil career, Brickey amassed 1,299 points, 649 rebounds, 146 assists, 115 steals and 90 blocked shots in 134 games played.
Known for his athleticism, Brickey had a brief stint with the Global Basketball Association's Fayetteville Flyers in the early 1990s. He received his bachelor of arts degree in political science from Duke University.
Moton, named head coach at his alma mater on March 25, has now completed his full-time coaching staff with the addition of Brickey. Ray Martin, a former men's basketball student-athlete at Notre Dame with more than 30 years in the coaching profession, returns for his third season on the NCCU bench as assistant coach.
