A new era: two new conferences (1921–1946)

In 1921, Dwight Ream took over the program for one season.^[9] After Ream left with a 8–9 record, Mike Vosburg took over for the 1922–23 season.^[10] Vosburg left with a 7–11 record. After two years with two different coaches, McPherson College coach, Dutch Lonborg, became head coach.^[11] From 1923 to 1927, Lonborg led the Ichabods to a 61–14–1 record, producing the second, and last, of the team's two ties as well as winning two conference regular season championships. Lonborg is a Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.^[12]

When Lonborg left after the 1926–27 season, Washburn entered a new era: Roy Wynne was named head coach,^[13] and the school joined the newly created Central Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.^[14] During Wynne's three seasons as head coach, he produced a 29–22 record. Following Wynne's departure, McPherson's football coach, George Gardner, took over. Coaching for three seasons and a total record of 19–28, Gardner was fired and was replaced by Elmer Holm.^[15] Holm's first season was a losing season and the last year in the CIAC. In 1934, Washburn moved joined the Missouri Valley Conference.^[16] Holm led the team for two more seasons, ending with a record of 21–36. In 1936, Dee Errikson took over team, leading for the next ten seasons and through World War II.^[17] Errikson led the team to an overall record of 67–122, making him one of the most unsuccessful coaches in Washburn history.^[6]

Post-World War II: 1946–1979

For the next thirty years after World War II, the Washburn saw five coaches come and go, with the addition of an interim for three games. In 1946, Washburn rejoined the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Conference after competing in the Missouri Valley for nine seasons and no conference for three during the war. After the war, Washburn hired Topeka High School basketball coach Adrian Miller, for would coach for five seasons. Before Miller took the helm of the team, Washburn went nearly 20 years without a winning season and although Miller went 8–11 overall in his first season, Miller quickly turned the team around in 1947–48 going 15–9.^[18] For the next three seasons, Miller led the Ichabods to 10 wins or more. After the 1950–51 season, Miller resigned with a 64–46 record to become an insurance agent.^[19]

After Miller resigned, Washburn hired former assistant Marion McDonald, who previously served as assistant coach for Fort Hays Kansas State College.^[20]

In 1960, Norm Short took over for the Ichabods for the next six seasons. During his six season, Short led the team to a 46–74 record, with only one winning season. After leading the Ichabods to a 5–20, 2–6 conference record in 1965–66, Short resigned.^[21] Short coached at Central Missouri State from 1966 to 1972.^[22]

Bob Chipman era: 1979–present

In 1979, Washburn assistant head coach Bob Chipman took over the program.^[23] During his five years as head coach, Chipman led the Ichabods to a 105–46 overall record, winning the MIAA Tournament Championship in 1982–84. Two seasons later, Chipman led the Ichabods to Washburn's first – as well as his first – NAIA basketball championship.^[24] The following season, the Ichabods won the conference regular season championship.

In 1989, the Ichabods made the move from NAIA to the NCAA Division II, which also meant they would join a new conference: the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association.^[25]^[26] Since joining the MIAA, Chipman has led his teams to nine conference regular season championships, four conference championships,^[27] 11 NCAA Tournament appearances, and a national runners-up in 2001.^[28]
