Meet Head Coach Trevon Ryans – Indiana Elite Prep
The Indiana Elite Prep program is led by Head Coach Trevon Ryans, a native of Indianapolis, Indiana. Since taking over as head coach in 2023, Coach Ryans has guided the Wolves of Indiana Elite Prep through a highly competitive schedule, facing off against top junior college programs, elite prep teams, and nationally ranked opponents.
Player Development
In his first season at the helm, Coach Ryans built a roster of nine student-athletes, successfully helping each player advance to the collegiate level. His leadership was further highlighted when one of his players left mid-season at Christmas break to pursue a college scholarship, later earning the NAIA Conference Player of the Year award.
Beyond the prep circuit, Coach Ryans has also been active in AAU basketball, helping four of his athlete's secure college opportunities in the summer of 2024 through the gift of athletics.
Playing & Coaching Background
Coach Ryans graduated from Bethesda Christian High School in Brownsburg, Indiana, where he developed his passion for the game. He then went on to continue his education and basketball journey at Boyce College in Louisville, Kentucky.
After completing college, he returned home to pursue his dream of coaching basketball full-time. In 2023, alongside his role at Indiana Elite Prep, he also served as:
🏀 Head JV Coach at Irvington Prep High School (Indianapolis, IN)
🏀 Head Varsity Assistant Coach at Irvington Prep
During that season, Irvington Prep went on to win a sectional championship, with Coach Ryans playing a key role on the coaching staff.
A Bright Future in Coaching
In his second year at Indiana Elite Prep, Coach Ryans faced adversity, battling injuries within his roster. Despite these challenges, he kept his team together and led them on a deep run in the Big Baller Brand National Championships, ultimately falling just short in an overtime semifinal thriller.
Now, as he enters Year 3 with Indiana Elite Prep, Coach Ryans is one of the brightest young coaches in the game, and under his leadership, the Wolves are poised to take on the best programs in the nation.
Meet Coach Leschon Clark – Indiana Elite Prep
Coach Leschon Clark, a Las Vegas, Nevada native, has deep family ties and roots in Indiana. As a part-owner and operator of Indiana Elite Prep, Coach Clark plays a pivotal role in mentorship, player relations, and personal development for the athletes in the program.
A Mentor & Leader Beyond Basketball
Coach Clark’s primary focus is mentorship and maturity development, ensuring that athletes are prepared for success on and off the court. He provides a stable advisory presence within the program, serving as both a mentor and life coach for young men navigating their basketball and life journeys.
Much like Indiana Elite Prep’s Founder, Tony Cole, Coach Clark comes from a background of adversity, making them kindred spirits in their mission to guide young men away from life’s pitfalls. Together, they bring a deep understanding of challenges that unprepared athletes may face and work tirelessly to help them build a foundation for success.
A Legacy of Training & Player Development
A leader in skill development and on-court training, Coach Clark has been instrumental in shaping athletes at all levels. Nearly a decade ago, Clark and Cole co-founded Elite Skillz, an AAU and training organization in Richmond, Indiana that helped countless young men and women develop their basketball skills.
Through Elite Skillz, Clark led specialized training regimens that were ahead of their time, focusing on skill refinement, athletic development, and mental preparation. Many of the athletes from this program have gone on to earn college opportunities, while others continue to excel at the high school level. The impact of Elite Skillz still resonates, as its alumni continue their journeys through basketball.
Entrepreneur, Mentor & Family Man
In addition to his role at Indiana Elite Prep, Coach Clark is a serial entrepreneur, public speaker, and mentor to countless young athletes. He is also a proud father of three, with one of his children making waves as a rising high school freshman, earning significant varsity minutes as a key part of the rotation.
With his deep passion for mentorship, leadership, and player development, Coach Clark is an integral part of Indiana Elite Prep, ensuring that the program’s mission extends far beyond basketball.
