Goshen Middle School would like to thank Coach Matt Smallwood for nine incredible years of dedication to our middle school basketball program! With an impressive 154 wins and just 9 losses, he led our teams to 7 Conference Championships and 2 Runner-Up finishes—a truly legendary record! As he retires from middle school coaching, we celebrate his achievements and his lasting impact on our students. He has truly made a difference. More than the victories, Coach Smallwood’s greatest influence has been his mentorship to the kids- teaching teamwork, perseverance, and sportsmanship. While we will miss his passion on the court, he is excited for his next role—cheering from the stands as a proud basketball parent as his youngest heads to high school. Congratulations on an outstanding career, Coach! Thank you for everything!
