Former Longwood Coach Bill Reinson Revisits 18-year college basketball journey
Bill Reinson's dream was to be a Division I Basketball Head coach. After 10 years as an assistant men's coach at UNC-Greensboro and Longwood, he was named interim and then permanent Head coach for the Longwood women in 2010. He and the Lady Lancers shocked the Big South by advancing to the finals of the tournament in 2013, Longwood's first year as a member. Reinson was named 2013 Virginia Women's Basketball Coach of the Year by the Richmond Times-Dispatch. He resigned as head coach in 2018 and moved back to his native Arizona. He now lives in Southside Virginia and is the university's Human Resources Manager.
