COACHES

Andres Marmolejo
Coach Andres is the Head of the Basketball Program at Lake Forest Country Day and an Assistant Coach at North Park University, leading a player-development model built on clarity, consistency, and competitive accountability. His work spans the full athlete pathway, developing players from the grassroots level through college, pre-draft preparation, and the professional ranks by emphasizing decision-making, skill efficiency, and game-ready habits that translate across levels. He is also the founder of YBA and Illinois Pro Academy, building highly competitive Illinois-based national teams on the adidas 3SSB circuits in environments designed to mirror the pace, physicality, and demands of elite basketball. What separates his approach is a commitment to teaching the game, maximizing meaningful reps, and preparing athletes not just to reach the next level, but to sustain success once they get there.
