CHARLESTON, S.C. – The Citadel Head Men's Basketball Coach Ed Conroy is pleased to announce the hiring of Andrew Glover and Brady Schuck as assistant coaches. Conroy, entering the fourth season of this second stint with the Bulldogs, welcomes these two accomplished coaches to the staff, bringing a variety of experiences, local ties and a passion for student-athlete development.
'We feel fortunate that we were able to attract and hire Andrew and Brady as they will be terrific coaches to our staff,' said Conroy. 'I have known them both for a long time and watched them progress throughout their careers. Andrew and Brady are the perfect additions to help us keep building our program to the level we all want for The Citadel basketball.'
Glover, a Charleston native and Wando High School alumnus, joins The Citadel after spending the past season as the head coach at Myers Park High School in Charlotte, N.C., where he led his squad to a conference championship and Elite Eight finish while earning Conference Coach of the Year honors. Prior to Myers Park, Glover spent four years as the inaugural Head Boy's Basketball Coach at Lucy Beckham High School, leading the team to the Elite Eight in 2022-23 and Sweet Sixteen in 2023-24, earning Coach of the Year honors along the way. A captain of Wando's 2014 State Championship team, he has a proven track record of success and deep roots in the Lowcountry.
Glover's coaching journey includes experience at both the college and high school levels. He spent two seasons as an assistant coach at USC Aiken, contributing to player development and game strategy. Prior to that, he served as an assistant coach on state championship teams in 2018 and 2019 at Grey Collegiate Academy. As a player, Glover competed at USC Aiken, Spartanburg Methodist and Hargrave Military Academy.
'I'm honored and grateful for the opportunity to join The Citadel basketball program,' said Glover. 'As a Charleston native, it means the world to me to be able to represent my hometown and be a part of a program built on discipline, tradition and respect. I want to sincerely thank Coach Conroy for trusting me and welcoming me to his staff. I'm excited to get to work with our student-athletes and our staff, helping to build something special.'
Schuck, another Charleston native, brings a wealth of basketball knowledge and leadership to The Citadel. He spent the past two seasons as an assistant coach at Flagler College, being a part of two winning seasons with the Saints, including a 20-win campaign in 2023-24 that culminated in trip to the Peach Belt Conference Championship game. He broke into the collegiate coaching ranks after two successful seasons as the head coach at James Island Charter School, leading the Trojans to the Sweet Sixteen in 2023 and Region Championship in 2024, earning Region Coach of the Year honors in the process.
Schuck played four seasons at Furman University and was a member of the Paladins 2016-17 SoCon Championship team.
'I'm grateful and excited for the opportunity to become an assistant coach at such a prestigious institution as The Citadel,' said Schuck. 'I'm excited to work with a great group of student-athletes and learn from Coach Conroy, someone I have a profound respect for. Getting the chance to do all of this while coaching college basketball in my hometown of Charleston makes it even more special.'

Tributes paid to engineer who shaped growth of North East town

Tributes have been paid to a long-serving council officer who played a 'central role' in shaping a North East town's growth and modernisation. Terry Ratcliffe, who served as borough engineer for Middlesbrough from 1972 until the abolition of Cleveland County Council in 1996, died recently at the age of 87. During his career, Mr Ratcliffe helped deliver major projects including the development of Coulby Newham and Hemlington, new retail areas, and pollution reduction schemes for the River Tees. He was also responsible for two multistorey car parks, the construction of Middlesbrough Bus Station, and the town's cycleway system. Terry Ratcliffe (Image: Middlesbrough Council) Brian Glover, former head of transport and design at Middlesbrough Council, said: "Terry played an absolutely central role in all of these initiatives, offering his management and engineering expertise to all these projects. "He was an excellent chief officer and a very good boss who was well respected by staff and members alike, and he had a wicked sense of humour." A keen cyclist, Mr Ratcliffe often built his own bikes and championed the development of cycling infrastructure across the town. Mr Glover said: "Terry was rightly very proud of his beloved cycleway system throughout the borough which was very innovative for the day. "He was especially proud of the joint cycle and pedestrian crossing on Keith Road which was a national first and opened by the then transport minister." Mike Robinson, former chief executive of Middlesbrough Council and a fellow engineer, said: "My abiding memory of Terry is that he was totally unflappable and had a fantastic sense of humour. "He always greeted people with a smile, even when he was telling you off." Mr Ratcliffe is survived by his wife Judith, their son, and two daughters.
