Christopher Weakley Hired As Head Men’s Basketball Coach

Posted September 23, 2024 at 8:37 am

Pennsylvania Highlands Community College has hired Christopher Weakley as the new head coach of the Men’s Basketball program.

Weakley will replace former coach Quan Britt, who guided the Black Bears for three seasons from 2021 to 2024.

“I saw this job as an opportunity to build the program around the way coach Quan had it,” Weakley stated. “I saw many possibilities for growth. I told the administration I’m coming here to win and continue to expand the program. I see it as a great fit for both me and the College. I’m very excited to get started.”

Weakley brings extensive basketball experience in both playing and coaching, highlighted by stints with several NBA organizations from 2003 to 2008.

He has also played and coached overseas in China, Japan, Brazil, Australia, and throughout Europe. In the United States, Weakley has led three different college programs, as well as being the head coach of the Draft City Ballers, a team in the NBA-endorsed Miami Pro League, in 2023.

“I want to keep the College’s tradition of winning,” Weakley stated. “We want to win and help our guys get to the next level. We have a great team that believes in working hard and understands what our goals are.”
