Michael Downs Bradbury (born 1969) is the current head coach of the New Mexico Lobos women's basketball team.
Coaching history
Bradbury served as an assistant coach at Xavier from 2002 until 2007, Cincinnati from 1996 until 2002, and VCU from 1995 until 1996 after beginning his career as an assistant coach at ETSU from 1994 until 1995.[1][2] He spent the 1991-92 and 1992-93 seasons as a student assistant coach at Chattanooga before his first full-time assistant coaching assignment.[3]
Prior to New Mexico and prior to arriving at Wright State, Bradbury coached the Morehead State Eagles to a 50–44 record over the course of three seasons, including a 22-11 record and a bid to the WBI in his final season as head coach.[4] The 22-win mark set the school's NCAA-era record for victories in a season, and the 14-4 conference mark in the same year set the school's single season conference wins record and was also the highest conference winning percentage in a season in school history.[5]
Personal life
Bradbury was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee.[6] He is married and has one son, Alex, and a daughter, Sena Nicole. Sena was adopted from Ethiopia in April 2010, shortly after Bradbury accepted the head coaching position at Wright State.[7]
