Why Choose Ohlone? - Ohlone Renegades Men's Basketball
Win!
-
We win because we recruit winners!
-
4-year schools recruit our players, because we win and we defend!
- We examined the men’s basketball programs in our conference (we included both divisions—South and North). We looked at winning percentage from 2000 to 2004. Two things were evident:
- Ohlone College has been a highly successful program under Coach John Peterson’s direction.
- Our league is loaded! To win back-to-back championships is an extraordinary accomplishment.
