Former Lake Washington coach Terry Johnson has been hired as the girls basketball coach at Auburn Riverside.
“I’m excited and looking forward to it,” said Johnson, 31. “There is a great support system in place (at Auburn Riverside) and I want to build off the expectations.”
Johnson, who led the Kangaroos’ boys team for the past six seasons, becomes the Ravens’ third coach in 11 months.
Former coach Adam Barrett unexpectedly resigned last August after guiding the team to back-to-back Class 3A state titles. Ed Rosin took over in an interim role last season and the Ravens won the 4A West Central District title and placed fourth at the state tournament.
Auburn Riverside athletic director Doug Aubert said Johnson’s experience coaching in the KingCo Conference should pay off.
“Competing in the tough KingCo Conference should be good preparation for competing in the tough SPSL North,” Aubert said.
Johnson doesn’t expect much to change in his coaching style in making the switch from coaching boys to girls.
“From what I’ve gathered from coach who have done both, basketball is basketball,” he said. “There will be some adjustments in way of communication, but that’s probably it.”
Johnson said he and his wife – the couple is expecting its first child in October – had been planning a move to Bonney Lake to be closer to family.
