Evan Metz enters his second season as assistant coach in 2026-27.
During Metz's first season in 2025-26, the Britons went 19-8 and earned the No. 3 seed in the MIAA Tournament.
The year also saw the emergence of Meghan Trewhella, who became the program's fourth MIAA MVP after she shattered Albion's single-season points record in just 22 games. She led the MIAA in scoring by over 150 points and became the conference's first 500-point scorer since the 2017-18 season. Trewhella ranked top 15 in Division III in points, points per game, free throws and field goals and was named MIAA Player of the Week five times while shooting over 50% from the field on the season.
Ava Guilford also won conference Defensive Player of the Year honors, marking the second time in school history Albion players swept the MIAA individual awards while also being a member of the All-MIAA second team. Guilford led the MIAA with 74 steals and was second in assist-to-turnover ratio (1.43). Offensively, she averaged 11.2 points and 6.9 rebounds per game and led the conference in minutes per game (37.0).
Metz came to Albion after a one-year stint as assistant girls basketball coach at Flint Powers Catholic High School, helping the Chargers to an 18-6 record and spot in the district final.
Before coaching, Metz worked as a real estate salesperson for Keller Williams for a year. He has also coached the Michigan Mystics girls basketball AAU team based in Clio, Mich., since 2023, working with both middle and high school athletes while leading training sessions for youth in grades 3-11.
The Hartland, Mich. native graduated from Michigan State University in 2022 with a degree in advertising management.
Metz holds a USA Basketball gold license.
